Being attacked is like being asked a question- if you answer right you won't get asked anymore questions.

Had a great time (thought many of the fights were excellent, esp the Muay Thai bouts). This was a unique opportunity to see some good fighting and support a very important charity at the same time. Congrats to the organizers, and to Ariana and Alberto for making this come together. We need to see more of these kinds of events in the future.

Thank you! It was an amazing night...every fight was violent (in a good way of course) :D The fighters were all matched evenly and they all came to bang! It was very exciting. Our guys all fought tough tough opponents.

The turn out could have been better in my opinion but I feel that unfortunately the Strikeforce event coming up next Saturday stole our "thunder". LOL

I believe we will raise more money for the children on our next event and more people will attend, because they will know what a great promotion it is that we will be putting on.

Thanks to all the participating gyms and fighters. Commentators Aric Wiseman and Lisa King. Ring announcer Jake "the professor" Stratton and all of the volunteers! We are very appreciative for your time and energy in helping make this event an impressive success!! It was an emense amount of work to do all by ourselves but well worth it! We look forward and WILL do it again!

Speaking of Lisa and Aric Wiseman, where/when will the event be broadcast so we can hear their commentations?
