Ladies and Gentlemen, Welcome to the Main Event of the Evening!

Tonight we have 12 rounds of boxing for the UHC heavyweight Title of the world.

This bout is sanctioned by the Las Vegas boxing commission. Scoring is on a 10 point must system. The three knockdown rule IS in affect and the fighter cannot be saved by the bell in any round, except for the 12th and final round.

Now to Jimmy Lennon Jr. for the introductions


Ladies and Gentleman, welcome to the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino on the Strip in Las Vegas, Nevada. This fight is being brought to you by OOTP Developments, the FOFC Community and Marmellion Productions.

Introducing first, the challenger. Hailing from The Netherlands, and fighting out of the blue corner, he has 7 wins against only 1 loss, which he avenged. 5 of those wins come by way of Knockout. Introducing the top ranked contender, Kyle, The Dutch Mafiaaaaaaaaa Kappe!

And fighting out of the red corner, with a record of 8-0, with 4 of those wins coming by way of knockout, hailing from the United State of America, the undefeated, undisputed UHC Heavyweight Champion of the World……….Muhammad Ali!


DING DING!!!

Round 1 starts out slow, as expected with the champ and the young superstar measuring each other up. Ali lands a few jabs early as Kappe is dancing around the ring, trying to calm himself down. Late in the round Kappe lands the first good shots of the fight for him. The champ had the slight advantage in this round, but no real action.

Kappe comes out jabbing and moving, jabbing and moving, but when Ali catches him with a big right he quickly abandons that strategy and starts throwing some hard punches as well. Round is was very even.

Round 3 was even for a while, but Ali suckered Kappe into throwing some wild punches by dropping his gloves. Kappe bit and Ali countered with some sharp jabs to score points and take the round.

Kappe started out round 4 looking great. He landed two consecutive rights that had Ali stumbling backwards. But then Kappe made a rookie mistake by looking back into his corner for advice and Ali pounced on him, and landed about 5 big shots that had Kappe reeling for the ropes. Ali steals another round thanks to his veteran savvy.

Round 5 was short on action, but big on Ali acting like the veteran he is. With the round in doubt, Ali pressed the action late, landed a couple of meaningless jabs for points and took the round.

I don’t know what Kappe’s corner told him in between rounds, but he looked much more confident and performed so in the ring. He landed a few combos and counterpunched with a ton of success and easily took this round from Ali. More importantly, Kappe now knows that he can hurt Ali like he just did. One of those rights landed square on Ali’s eye and it is now puffed up. Kappe just needs to look at Ali’s eye now to know he can win this fight and hurt Ali.

Ali rallied nicely in round 7, landing some big shots and finishing the rounf strong to win it with ease. However, Kappe is smartly concentrating on that eye of Ali and the swelling is noticeably larger. The ref is really keeping an eye on Ali’s eye.

Kappe has a nice round 8 and pulls very close if not even on the cards with Ali. The question is, will Ali’s eye hold up for 4 more rounds? I am not too sure about it.

Early in round 9 Kappe lands a devastating blow to the nose of Ali which causes a stream of blood to flow from Ali’s nose. Kappe finishes the round strong and all the momentum is on his side right now. This fight is way too close to call.

Round 10 was a pretty even round, very tough to score. Both fighters have hit a wall and niether was doing too much in the ring in the 10th.

Round 11 was another dead even round. This final round may very well determine the winner of this fight, that is how close it is. Ali’s eye is a real mess and swollen way out, but with just one rind to go, I think he can get through it. I cannot see the ref stopping it at this point.

Ali is aggressive in the final round, as he is trying to give the judges a final impression of his superiority. In reality the round was also very close, but I would probably give it to Ali. After 12 great rounds of boxing, this fight will be determined by the judges.

Special Late Night Impromptu Fight from Foxwoods Casino in Ledyard, CT.

Jobu Eckman (0-0) vs. Mark Gastineau (0-0)


Jobu enters the ring in great condition for his first ever professional fight. As for Gastineau, lets face it, you never know what you are going to get in or out of the ring.


Eckman looks sharp n his first professional fight, but of course, consider the competition. Eckman was warned already for using his elbows on Gastineau. This round is easily in favor of Eckman.

In round 2, Eckman is just toying with Mark, like a cat playing with a dead mouse. It looked like he could have put him down a couple of times, but held back a bit just to get more work in.

Finally in round 3, Eckman looks bored and starts landing 5 and 6 punch combinations on Gastineau. Mark motions to the ref and the ref steps in and stops this fight.


The winner by TKO at the 2:23 mark of Round 3 is Jobu Eckman!

Special Late Night Impromptu Fight from Foxwoods Casino in Ledyard, CT.

Mike Tokunaga (1-1) vs. Eric “Butterbean” Esch (0-0)

Both fighters come to the ring in perfect condition for the second of these two charity fights we are having tonight.


This fight ended up being a complete joke. Butterbean never landed a single punch in this fight and he only ended up throwing 2 punches. Tokunaga knocked him down once midway through the round for a 9 count and then put him down for good late in the round.


The winner by KO at the end of Round 1 is Mike Tokunaga!

Opening Bout

Mike “Blade” Tokunaga vs. Oliver McCall

Blade is a 2-1 favorite over McCall. Both fighters have trained hard and look to be in great shape.


McCall throws Blade off of his game plan early on with an intentional head butt that the ref gives him a warning for. Blade seemed a bit tentative after that and lost the round, absorbing some jabs, but not much damage.

Blade’s corner relaxed him in between rounds and he came out much more confident in round 2. He landed a nice hook, a right cross and an uppercut that all did heavy damage to McCall and had him back pedaling. An easy victory for Blade in this round.

Round 3 was pretty even. Blade started off strong, but got caught by an uppercut from McCall that turned the tide of the round.

In round 4, McCall landed a hard jab to the nose of Blade and Blade hit the canvas for a quick three count. The punch stunned him more than anything, but McCall ended up dominating the round.

Not much action in round 5, but Tokunaga had a nice flurry of action in the final 30 seconds that should have won him the round.

Round 6 was the best round of the fight so far. Both fighters landed a good number of power punches and it took a lot out of both fighters. McCall came out ahead in the exchanges though and midway through this fight, with the knockdown, I would score him as the winner by about 3 or 4 points. Blade has some work to do to get back into this fight.

Tokunaga looks like a beaten man in round 7. He is taking lots of damage, and not throwing many punches of his own. He spent most of his time covering up in this round.

McCall starts taking over this fight in round 8. Blade is doing very little in the way of offense right now. He seems afraid to throw anything because he might get countered.

Blade finally shows up for the fight in round 9, landing some big hooks to the head of McCall and staggering him a few times. Easy victory for Blade in this round, but he is going to need at least a knockdown to have a shot.

Blade continues to put the pressure on McCall in Round 10. He had McCall on the ropes and hanging on for dear life, but could just not put him down. Still, another easy round for Tokunaga.

Round 11 is another victory for Tokunaga, but you can tell he is tiring and the punches he throws do not have as much on them.

Round 12 gives Blade the final 4 rounds of this fight in convincing fashion. At one point the was pretty far behind, but finishing strong could always turn the outcomes of a fight around. We will find out in a minutes…



Roberto Ramirez scores the fight 114-113 for Mike Tokunaga.
Louis Moret scores the fight 114-113 for Oliver McCall.
Harold Lederman scores it 115-112 for the winner, by split decision……..

Oliver McCall!



This is a big set back in the career of Blade Tokunaga.

First you must fight Vitali Klitschko, who has been an FOFC killer. He is just 3-6, but has beaten both FOFC fighters he has faced.

Preliminary Bout #1

Jobu Eckman vs. Vitali Klitschko


Jobu is a 2-1 favorite over Vitali. Both fighters are in perfect fight shape for this bout.



Eckman came out head hunting in this fight, no surprise there. He landed some devastating rights that almost sent Vitali to the canvas. On the other hand, Vitali landed some very light jabs that looked almost comical against Eckman’s killer right hand.

Vitali had a little more success in round 2, but Eckman is still trying to knock his block off and easily won the round. Vitali’s strategy must be to let Eckman swing himself out of gas and then take over the fight.

Maybe Vitali’s strategy was smart. Eckman whiffed on his first couple of punches and Vitali countered nicely and then dropped a bomb on Eckman that sent him flying into the ropes. Vitali follwed him into the corner and just started laying the lumber. Eckman could do nothing but cover up. After about 45 seconds of pounding by Vitali and no countering by Eckman the ref stepped in and stopped the fight!!!! Chalk up another upset for Vitali Klitschko!


The winner by TKO at the 2:49 mark of Round 3 is Vitali Klittschko!!!

Preliminary Bout #2

David “The American Bear” Yellope vs. Timmy “Thunder” Kings


The books have this as an even fight. Both fighters are in great shape for this one.



In the first 20 seconds of the fight, the ref stops it and warns Yellope for holding and hitting. He resumes the fight and the first round is pretty even, with Yellope maybe gaining a very slight advantage.

Round 2 was a great one. Yellope landed some solid hook shots to the temple of Kings, but when Yellope missed, Kings was right in his face landing combinations. Late in the round Yellope got another warning from the ref for hitting on the break this time.

Yellope lands some big shots early in round three, but once again Yellope gets a warning, this time for a low blow! Kings is clearly affected by that nut shot. I think maybe the ref should start taking points away from the American Bear if this is how he is going to fight. Either way, Kings took a real beating in that round, and barely survived it. I think the ref was ready to step in when the bell rang to end the round.

Kings comes back with a huge 4th round, and he had Yellope covering up and dodging bullets for all three minutes. Kings gets himself back into the fight with a great showing.

Kings continues to dominate Yellope in round 5. David’s legs looked like jelly in this round and I think the bell came just in time, as another punch might have sent him down.

Round 6 was pretty even. Yellope tried to get aggressive towards the end, but once again he was hitting on the break and this time he gets a point taken away. Halfway through the fight, it is dead even.

Round 7 saw the action slow down, but Yellope landed 3 solid power punches that did some damage and won him the round.

Another slow round in the 8th and the crowd is letting the two men hear about it. Give a slight advantage to Kings in this round for pressing the action.

The action picked up only slightly in round 9. Both fighters are obviously very fatigued at this point in the fight. Kings landed a couple nice combinations in this round which probably earned him the round on the cards. We have 3 rounds to go and the fight is dead even.

David looks like he got a second wind in round 10, and looks like he has taken control of the fight. It is now his fight to win in the last 2 rounds.

Yellope looked like he was going to finish this fight up in the 11th round, but Kings just would not go down. Out of frustration maybe, Yellope throws a backhand, the ref clearly sees it and deducts another point from Yellope! That is 2 deduction in what is a very close fight. I am not sure Yellope can afford that and still win.

Both fighters try to give a great last impression to the judges in round 12, but neither got the better of it. This fight goes 12 very good round and now it goes to the cards……


Guillermo Perez scores the fight 114-111 for David Yellope.
Omar Mintun scores the fight 113-112 for Timmy Kings.
Ole Oveson scores it 113-112 for the winner, by split decision………


David, The American Bear, Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeellope!

Support Bout

David “The Assassin” Gonzalez vs. Jace Hunter

The books have this fight at even. Both fighters are in tip top shape for this bout.



If the first round is any indication we are in for great fight. The two men went toe to toe in that round, both delivering big shots that did some damage!

Gonzalez took over in round 2 and had Hunter out on his feet, but could not land the knockdown blow. An easy win for Gonzalez in this round.

Gonzalez was getting the better of Hunter in this round, but he made a rookie mistake. He put his guard down to adjust his belt and Hunter pounced, landed a huge right and sent Gonzalez down to the canvas for a 6 count! That turns this fight around in a big way!

Hunter cannot follow up his great third round in the 4th, but he still comes away as the winner of the round.

Hunter continues to dominate Gonzalez in round 5 and he is starting to take over the fight.

Hunter lets Gonzalez back in the fight by not being aggressive in round 6. Gonzalez sees that this could be his chance to get back in the fight and starts throwing lots of jabs that land. He finally gets the chance to throw a nice uppercut and it lands square, sending Hunter off his feet, through the air and flat out on his back. He does not even more, never mind answer the 10 count. Gonzalez just knocked him out cold with 1 punch!


The winner by KO at the 2:39 mark of Round 6 is David “The Assassin” Gonzalez!

Co-Feature

George Foreman vs. Rocky Marciano

The books have this as an even fight. Both fighters have trained hard and are ready to go.

Big George came out and laid a beating to Rocky for the first two rounds of this fight. There were several times when it looked like it would be an early night for Marciano. He was able to hold on though and in round 3, Rocky came back and delivered a beating of his own to Big George.

Foreman returns to form in round 4 and again has Rocky out on his feet. He lands about 4 huge shots to Rocky’s left eye and it swells up like a balloon.

In round 5 it starts getting really ugly for Rocky. His hands are down and his is exhausted. His eye looks horrendous, and I doubt he can go much longer.

In fact, it doesn’t as soon as the bell sounds for round 6, the ref stops this due to Rocky’s eye. No argument from him. Rocky was just not ready for this fight at all.


The winner by TKO at the 0:03 mark of Round 6 is George Foreman!

Main Event


Joe Frazier vs. Mike Tyson for Frazier’s WBO Heavyweight Title.

The odds are even in this fight. Both fighters are in perfect shape as the bell sounds for round 1.



Through the first two rounds, Frazier is out boxing Tyson, which is no surprise, but Tyson is finding the openings he needs to land his powerful punches, and he is landing them in bunches for a lot of damage.

In round 3, Tyson has Frazier out on his feet, but the bell saves Frazier as he was about to go down. All three rounds are Tyson’s by a wide margin right now.

Frazier looks like a new man in rounds 4, 5 and 6 and he easily took all of them from Tyson. It seems as if Tyson cannot finish a fight early he gets himself into a lot of trouble. Halfway through this title fight, it is too close to call.

I might have spoke too soon because Tyson comes storming back in round 7 and once again has Frazier out on his feet, but somehow, someway, Joe finds a way to remain standing and get out of the round. And a short rest is all Frazier needs because he comes back in round 8 and dominates like Tyson did in round 7. Not only that but he lands a punch square in Tyson’s left eye, causing it to swell up on the spot!

Frazier slowly takes control of this fight in round 9 with a solid win. He is also targeting that eye of Tyson and while it is getting worst, I think it will hold up for 3 more rounds.

Tyson has a better round in the 10th, but you still have to give the slight nod to Frazier in this round. Overall, I would say Frazier is slightly ahead on points, but with 2 rounds to go, Tyson can win this fight easily as well.

Frazier is trying to wrap up the final couple of rounds on the scorecards and he does so successfully in the 11th.

Frazier is all over Tyson in Round 12, but Tyson has one trick left in his bag. He blocks a straight right from Frazier then throws everything he has left at Frazier for the next 20 seconds. Frazier’s legs cannot hold him up and he sinks to the canvas. He tries to answer the 10 count, but his legs won’t allow it! Tyson has come back to knock out Frazier in the 12th round and steal this fight, and Frazier’s title!!!!!


The winner, and NEW WBO Heavyweight Champion of the World, Iron Mike Tyson!

It's fight time, and Eckman and Yellope are in the middle of the ring, staring at each other.

Yellope: "Say, you're not going to hit my chin, are you? The girls all say that it's my best feature."

Eckman: "I must break you."

Yellope: "Oh. Crap..."

Opening Bout

Jason Wood vs. Tommy Morrison

Wood will be making his profession debut today while Morrison is still in search of his first victory. Wood is a 3-1 favorite in this fight. Both fighters are in perfect shape for this bout.


Morrison comes out throwing some junk and landing a few shots on Wood, but it doesn’t take long for Wood to find an opening and he lays a viscous hook to the temple of Morrison that sends him sprawling. He thinks about getting up, but then thinks better of it and takes the 10 count! Quite the debut for Jason Wood!


The winner by KO at the 1:02 mark of Round 1 is Jason Wood!!!

Preliminary Bout #1

Mike “Blade” Tokunaga vs. Timmy “Thunder” Kings.

This fight is at even odds when the books close. Both fighters are in tip top shape for this important fight between the two youngsters.


Blade gets the better of Timmy in round 1, landing some power punches that really hurt Kings. He was shaken up by the quick start of Blade, and I don’t think he expected it.

Kings took some body shots in round 1, so he was covering up the body in round 2. Tokunaga took the opportunity to go to the head and landed a perfect cross on Kings that sent him down for a 6 count in round 2. Tokunaga lets Timmy get out of the round by not applying the pressure.

Tokunaga continues to get the upper hand on Kings in round 3, and is threatening to run away with this fight early on.

Blade landed another solid cross right at the beginning of round 4 that really shook Kings up. Kings spent the rest of the round trying to avoid Blade, but Blade was still able to dish out more punishment in the round.

In round 5, Kings finally settles down and gets back to his gameplan. He out boxes Tokunaga in round 5 and landed some power punches of his own. He takes his first round of the fight here in the fifth.

Kings starts to pour it on in round 6. He had Blade reeling with some huge overhand rights! The only thing keeping Blade up in the final 5 seconds of that round was the ropes, literally. Blade was clinging to them for his life and the ref was about to step in and end it, but the bell saved Blade from a disaster. Now he needs to try and regroup. He has a slight swelling starting on his left eye.

Blade starts out round7 as the aggressor and was having some success with the jab and the cross, but once he missed, Kings jumped on him and dominated the rest of the round, winning it with ease. After 7 rounds now, this fight is dead even, even with the early knockdown by Blade.

Round 8 is more of the same from Kings as he is beating Blade to a pulp out there. Once again the ref was looking very closely at Blade to see if he was able to go. Thankfully for Blade, he does let it continue, but he is barely able to find his corner when the bell rings!

Kings has completely taken over this fight here in the 9th round. He is just destroying Blade out there, but it is a testament to the heart of Tokunaga that he has not gone down yet. His eye is getting worse, but with only 3 rounds to go it should not be a showstopper.

Just as I say that, Round 10 begins and Kings ends this fight in style with a jab that just came out of nowhere and sent Tokunaga sprawling to the canvas for a 10 count! The crowd gives Kings a standing ovation for those impressive last few rounds and the KO!


The winner by KO at the 1:55 mark of Round 10 is Timmy Kings!

Preliminary Bout #2

Jace Hunter vs. Oliver McCall

Jace is a 3-2 favorite over McCall. Both fighters are in great shape for this fight.



The two fighters were just feeling each other out in round 1, and neither fighter really did much, nor gain an advantage.

Round 2 saw some power punching action, with each fighter landing some solid blows. Hunter took more punishment in the exchanges, but scoring wise it was again very even.

Round 3 is going the same as the first two, with neither fighter being able to separate themselves from the other, and the scoring has got to be dead even.

Round 4 was a crazy round. It was even for most of the way, but late in the round Hunter started landing some big punches and McCall was staggering all over the ring. The crowd was so excited they were all on their feet and the noise was incredible. So loud in fact that the ref did not hear the bell sound and allowed Hunter to land two more huge shots after the bell!

McCall looks exhausted now and he comes out in round 5 with his gloves hanging low, but he came out with some fight on him and started to take over the round until Hunter started laying some power punches on him again. In the end, this was a very close round, but the late flurry may have given it to Hunter.

Round 6 shows McCall continuing to find his legs and his power and it was a very even round between the two fighters.

Round 7 sees McCall start to take control of Hunter. Slowly but surely he has been looking better and better and this round was an easy win for McCall. After 7 rounds, I would guess Hunter has an ever so slight lead in this fight.

Round 8 sees McCall again dominating Hunter. It looks like Hunter has run out of steam aftera very nice start to this fight. Another easy win for McCall in this round.

McCall is just going about his business and Hunter is getting frustrated as he drops his third round in a row to McCall.

Time is running out for Hunter and he responds with a solid round 10, winning this one and giving himself a chance in this fight. He may have to win the final 2 rounds to have a chance at getting the decision.

Round 11, is just a huge round for Hunter and he almost had McCall knocked down. He scored a ton of points and picks up another round. It could come down to the final round on the cards.

Hunter did everything he could in the 12th round and in the last 3 rounds as well to get the victory. The only question is if he gave away too many of the middle rounds.

We go to the cards……

Harold Lederman scores this fight 117-112 for Jace Hunter.
Larson Oumgher scores it 115-113 for Oliver McCall.
Jose Cobian scores it 116-113 for the winner, by split decision………

Jace Hunter!!!!!!!

David Gonzalez vs. Lennox Lewis

This fight is even in the books. Both fighters are in perfect shape for this fight.


Neither fighter was very shy at all in round 1. They came out throwing everything they had. Lewis had a late flurry of combinations that gave him the round.

Round 2 was a great one for David, as he landed some power shots that definitely hurt Lewis. Lewis was backpedaling late in the round. Give this one to Gonzalez.

David continues to lay the lumber in round 3, hurting Lewis badly and almost sending him down. Lewis was stumbling around for a minute before he caught he balance and finished the round. Lewis looks tired already from the beating he is taking early on.

Round 4 was almost the end for Lewis but somehow he remained on his feet. The ref thought about stopping it in that round as Lewis is showing very little, if any offense at all. He took some shots to his right eye and that thing has swelled up bad already!

A solid hook early in the 5th sends Lewis down to the canvas for a 6 count! He gets up but Gonzalez punishes him for it, taking a huge 2 point round and putting Lewis in position for a KO victory.

Maybe in a last ditch effort, Lewis comes out swinging and gets a slight advantage over Gonzalez in that round. His eye is getting very bad now though and I doubt he will last much longer.

Early in Round 7, Gonzalez puts the pressure on Lewis and after some sharp jabs to the eye, the ref steps in and ends this fight!


The winner by TKO at the 0:54 mark of Round 7 is David Gonzalez! David is now a very solid 5-3 in his career!

Ladies and Gentleman, now for our Co-Main Event of the evening. A grudge match between two young fighters. If pride was not enough, the newly formed FOFC organization is going to award their Heavyweight title to the winner of this bout!

Eckman throws the first swing of the fight and Yellope easily didges it and then sends back a combination of punches that all land cleanly. This throws Eckman off his game and Yellope continues to pummel Eckman for the remainder of the round. A decisive victory in round 1 for Yellope and he dealed out a lot of damage as well.

Yellope makes Eckman look like an amateur boxer in round 2. He is landing at will out there. Jabs, crosses and a few nasty hooks that has Eckman covering up, and running for his life. He is luck this fight has not been stopped already and he better regroup in a hurry.

Yellope continues to makes Eckman his bitch in round 3, but at exactly the 2 minute mark of the round Eckman lands a 4 punch combination to the face of Yellope that tears open the skin over his left eye, sending blood down the face of Yellope! Yellope probably still won the round, but he looks like the losing fighter right now!

Yellope’s corner works on his eye in between rounds but cannot get the bleeding to stop yet. It looked like Eckman was going to take his first round of the fight, but late in the round Yellope landed two straight jabs, the second buckling Eckman’s legs and making him avoid Yellope for the rest of the round. Call this one even.

David’s eye is still leaking blood as we start the 5th round. Yellope sends Eckman to the canvas in this round with a brutal ribcage shot. Eckman answers to a 6 count. David moves in for the kill and dishes out a ton of punishment to Eckman, but Jobu withstands it and makes it out of the round alive.

The action slows down quite a bit in round 6. The fighters exchange some jabs with Yellope getting the better of Eckman. Yellope also threw a few elbows which he got warned for. Late in the round Yellope lands a low blow that doubles over Eckman. The ref takes a point away from Yellope for the low blow. Because of that, call this round even.

Yellope is the only one landing punches in round 7 and he is totally outclassing Eckman. However, Yellope has a second point taken away from him in this round for intentional head butting. He better start being careful or he will get DQ’d from a fight he is easily winning thus far.


Round 8 is another slow one, but give the nod to Yellope for pushing the action as well as landing more shots in the round. Neither fighter sustained much damage in this round though.

Eckman finally has a winning round, even if it is only because Yellope was pretty inactive in the 9th. Eckman did land a clean power punch late in the round which buckled Yellope’s knees, but I am not certain Eckman has the power there anymore.



Round 10 was pretty even with neither fighter pressing too much. With 2 rounds to go I would say Eckman will need at least a knockdown, if not a knockout to win this grudge match.

Early in round 11, Eckman misses with a hook, leaving himself wide open. Yellope takes advantage and pounds three hard shots to the ribs of Eckman which sends him down to the canvas. He answers to a quick 2 count, but now pretty much needs a knockout to win. Late in the round, Yellope lands a viscous cross that drops Eckman for the second time in this round. He answers to a four count and the fight continues. Yellope goes for the kill, but hits low and has a third point taken from him! We head to the 12th and final round!
