Weight Class: Featherweight
Hometown: Detroit, Michigan
Style: Mixed Martial Arts
Height: 5'9"
Weight: 141lbs
Age: 44
I could have kept him signed on, but I'm just not sure it's worth it. At 44 he's only going to get worse and he already sits in the bottom half of the featherweight rankings.
Released: Thiago Machida (1-2)
Weight Class: Middleweight
Hometown: Piracicaba, Brazil
Style: Karate
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 181lbs
Age: 24
He's always out for a really long time and doesn't have any wins over credible opposition. He might be a star in the future, but for now I think we can find better
Signed: Willie Hansen (4-1)
Weight Class: Featherweight
Hometown: Rochester, New York
Style: Wrestling
Height: 5'6"
Weight: 141lbs
Age: 30
He's at his prime and he looks like he should be good. He should be a strong addition to our roster. |

Weight Class: Featherweight
Hometown: Plymouth, England
Style: Muay Thai
Height: 5'5"
Weight: 138lbs
Age: 34
If Gerry was able to get the fans behind him a bit more, I'd probably be looking to resign him, but they're simply not that excited to see him so I'm going to look for someone new.
Released: Power Ramos (2-6)
Weight Class: Middleweight
Hometown: Davenport, Iowa
Style: Kickboxing
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 182lbs
Age: 39
He's so gone. Lost all of his last 6 matches, out for over 100 days and has absolutely no buzz around him. I'm happy to replace him honestly.
Released: Eddie Whitfield (6-12)
Weight Class: Middleweight
Hometown: Lafayette, Louisiana
Style: Muay Thai
Height: 6'5"
Weight: 183lbs
Age: 28
It's crazy that he's the last of my original Middleweights left on my roster because he's really not been impressive. Sure beating Ricky Kansas was impressive, but aside from that he's just been on a terrible run. The Middleweight division has really left him behind here.
Signed: Genjo Suzuki (1-1)
Weight Class: Featherweight
Hometown: Kobe, Japan
Style: Boxing
Height: 5'6"
Weight: 138lbs
Age: 26
There were some other options I considered, a young RT Levicki has fans most excited, while Dave Brody has been having a strong run. I went for the middle between the two. He has less buzz, a bit of potential and is still young so hopefully he'll have an alright time with us.
Signed: Tim Hoost (12-10)
Weight Class: Middleweight
Hometown: Tilburg, Netherlands
Style: Mixed Martial Arts
Height: 5'10"
Weight: 179lbs
Age: 33
An ex-CCM guy who looks like he should be alright, Tim Hoost is kind of one of the few stars in a pretty dull M/W Independent scene. |

Weight Class: Featherweight
Hometown: Indianapolis, Indiana
Style: Mixed Martial Arts
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 139lbs
Age: 18
Super young and I wasn't sure about signing him initially with only a single win under his belt, but a 2nd win has meant he's now showing some definite promise. Hopefully this isn't too early for him.
Signed: Kevin Hunt (1-0)
Weight Class: Middleweight
Hometown: Coventry, England
Style: Wrestling
Height: 6'3"
Weight: 180lbs
Age: 25
He may have only fought once so far but fans are buzzing about his first ever match so I figured now was the perfect opportunity to add him to my roster.
Signed: Tom Delaney (3-0)
Weight Class: Heavyweight
Hometown: San Antonio, Texas
Style: Mixed Martial Arts
Height: 6'6"
Weight: 241lbs
Age: 27
Normally I don't disbalance the numbers in my divisions, but the best option for middleweights didn't spark me with much hope, while Delaney looked like a good possibility, so I'm giving him the chance.
Released: Paul Abbott (8-9)
Weight Class: Featherweight
Hometown: Manchester, England
Style: Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
Height: 5'6"
Weight: 138lbs
Age: 28
We had 10 contracts come up for renewal this week and among them were two of our original 17 featherweights who are being released. The first of these two is the older Paul Abbott. He's not on a good run, he's still out for at least 2 more months and the fans don't care to see him. Suffice to say it's been a long run but his time with us is finished.
Released: Tadashi Narita (5-7)
Weight Class: Featherweight
Hometown: Kawasaki, Japan
Style: Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
Height: 5'6"
Weight: 142lbs
Age: 27
The second of our original roster being released (leaving just Luke Riggs, John Bassey, Vasily Kozlov and Tim Sarron), Tadashi is on a 5 match losing streak and out for another 3 months minimum. He hasn't won a match since at least 2016 so it's time to let him go.
Released: Paul Kilbane (7-7)
Weight Class: Middleweight
Hometown: Columbus, Ohio
Style: Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 172lbs
Age: 28
Paul is on a pretty poor run, with 1 win in his last 5. He's not got much buzz either and at 28 he's unlikely to grow into the top star. As such, it's time to let him head off to the Indies
Released: Andy Welsh (4-5-1)
Weight Class: Heavyweight
Hometown: Reno, Nevada
Style: Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 256lbs
Age: 40
If he wasn't already 40, I might've considered giving Andy a chance given his recent win over Joey Fitzsimmons, but the facts are Fitzsimmons has been terrible and so has Welsh, so getting rid of Welsh is the right call.
Released: Andre Rizzo (8-7-1)
Weight Class: Heavyweight
Hometown: Salvador, Brazil
Style: Muay Thai
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 256lbs
Age: 30
He's out for over 100 days still and honestly just doesn't look to be good enough to be worth keeping around waiting that long. He typically just grinds out boring wins anyway. |

Hometown: Woodlake, California
Style: Karate
Height: 5'8"
Weight: 141lbs
Age: 30
He's go no fights under his belt, but the fans are excited to see him, so I figured I'd sign him onto the roster. Hopefully he'll prove to be a good addition.
Signed: Dave Brody (10-10)
Weight Class: Featherweight
Hometown: Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
Style: Muay Thai
Height: 5'7"
Weight: 141lbs
Age: 34
A return to the roster as he's been running through the featherweight Indies. I don't think this will go better for him than last time honestly, but he's the best option I could see.
Signed: Ricky Kansas (15-5)
Weight Class: Middleweight
Hometown: Louisville, Kentucky
Style: Mixed Martial Arts
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 181lbs
Age: 28
A very quick return for Ricky Kansas as it turns out there isn't too much to be excited on in the Indies now. He's had a great run since his released defeating Frank Smooth, Zachary Clark and Chuck Robinson on his way to get resigned.
Signed: Paul Hudson (3-2)
Weight Class: Middleweight
Hometown: Baldwin, New York
Style: Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 180lbs
Age: 28
The only other guy in the Middleweight Indies fans were excited to see, Paul Hudson doesn't have the greatest record, but one of those losses was against Luis Martins, so he might be better than is shown.
Signed: Alex Correa (1-0)
Weight Class: Heavyweight
Hometown: Salvador, Brazil
Style: Kickboxing
Height: 7'0"
Weight: 257lbs
Age: 22
Originally I planned on signing on an ex-FWC Champion (Steve Rosier) whose contract was coming up when I checked the Indies and found Correa. This kid looks like he could become a beast, so hopefully we can bring that out of him. |
