Raymond Daniels is unbelievable! Sounds like there were some really good matchups!

My quick observations from each match-up

New Jersey Tigers vs. Oklahoma Destroyers
- Once again a great turnout and atmosphere in Tulsa (the Okies love the WCL)
- Longacre’s fights were great. Longacre fought hard, but could not match Maceo’s speed and frankly I thought the 7 points the judges gave Longacre against Gonzalez were generous
- The star of the night was Sitzes; she didn’t seem to have any problems with Holland and knocked Bopp out early in the fight
- The score doesn’t really show how well Jesse Lawrence did. Before the fight I thought Uriah Hall would have beaten him handily. I had Jesse winning until Hall knocked Jesse down with a nice spinning hook kick with a few seconds left.
- The officiating was not great tonight, if I were a New Jersey fan, I would have felt slighted

New York Clash vs. Los Angeles Stars
- Bourelly did not have his best night, but to say that Bourelly tied Valdivia is a joke. Bourelly got a penalty for a low blow and there was an unintentional headbutt so the fight went to the judges early. How one of the judges had Valdivia winning that fight is beyond me.
- Tara Van Deusen fought as an alternate for LA, beating Jennifer Santiago 15-8 to give LA a shot going in to the last fight
- Patrick Barry had two great fights, neither were knock outs however he knocked both his opponents down multiple time with leg kicks
- Daniels needed a knockout and of course had no trouble getting it, he is a fantastic fighter

It has been a great season and I have enjoyed watching it, can’t wait until next year…

Really great event. I was lucky to see it live and I loved it. I was amazed how much time the ref gave Longacre to recover from David Gonzalez's beat down. Too much attention was given to preventing Longacre from getting knocked out! I think David G from NJ Tigers won that bigger than the score reflects. Maceo did a nice job on Longacre! Maceo hit him with a left hook that left Longacre seriously wobbly - really great match!

I love the Oklahoma team, but I did feel that NJ might have gotten a bit "shafted" by some of the scoring. I really love Longacre, but I thought they were unusually attentive to him during the bout with Gonzalez. Holland vs. Jerry was a great match up as well and a tough exciting fight to watch.

Bodyrocka's fights were fun too! Uriah Hall won in the end but it was Bodyrocka who looked like he might win in the first 1 1/2 mins. Uriah got him in the end though. When Carlos fought Bodyrocka I actually thought Carlos won that fight, but the score was in favor of Jesse "Bodyrocka" Lawrence.

I enjoy watching Lyman Good from the NJ Tigers, he's fun to watch and had no trouble winning his match - he looked so crazy and a bit scary from my seat in the crowd. I felt like Lyman wanted to go MMA on his opponent so bad!

Tara D. from the LA Stars took Santiago completely out of the ring and had her flying into the judges/commentators table. That was an exciting fight to watch and Tara did a nice job winning that against Santiago. I thought NY might take it from LA, but the tides turned after Santiago's match and LA ended on such a beautiful note with Daniels knockout spinning hook kick to his opponent's head! WOW! LA vs. NY was an emotional rollercoaster to watch - GREAT.


So many good fights and a great event overall. Looking forward to more WCL!!!
