Soren on Evolution 11
Tuesday, July 31, 2007
Main Event:
-Nathan "Carnage" Corbett vs International opponent
The Evolution team is super excited to have this main event, but sorry there will be no prizes for predicting an explosive performance from Carnage.
Other fighters scheduled:
-Soren vs TBA
Soren will be taking the time out of his busy Thailand fight schedule to return especially for the bout and is in the best form of his career
- Daddy Kool vs Benjamin Ritter
Dane Daddy Kool will be returning to Brisbane after his last victories over Thai opponents in Sydney and his massive elbow ko victory in Lumpinee stadium last weekend
- Eli Maddigan vs TBA (not Shaggy)
On again, off again several times over, with injuries and other problems on both sides in the past, this time unfortunately Shaggy is unavailable for the matchup, despite the Evo team's best efforts to finally make it happen. This time we felt sure that everything was in place to finally stage this bout, but it seems like this one just isn't gonna happen. Who knows - perhaps they are just waiting for more of a buildup? Not to take anything away from Eli, he has stepped up to fight and he will be matched for a war, as you'd all expect on any Evolution show.
- Ghot vs Mikey Tomohawk (rematch)
Anybody who saw Evolution 10 will remember this as one of the absolute highlights of the night, so the Evo team are excited to bring it to y'all again
- Qld title defence, Mark Sarracino (champ) vs Majid NTG at 63.5kg
- Undercard to include Taylor Harvey (Mad-X) and Clinton Cork (from Matrix)
As always, watch this thread for updates as we get closer to the show, probably don't need to point out that this is already shaping up to be an absolute cracker again.
Brute Force features Soren in WMC show in Melbourne
Thursday, September 1, 2005
Melbourne was recently host to a great night of fights when some of Oceania and Thailand’s fighting warriors stepped into the ring for Brute Force 7 put on by Oceania MuayThai Federation promoter George Kovolos in co-operation with the WMC and IFMA.
The main event was the Australian star Soren "Mongkongtong" King taking on the Thai athlete Vuttichai Jeansiri, the Thai fresh from battles in the Chinese Cup. With a really strong pedigree behind both boys, this was an eagerly anticipated fight. Although weighing the same, Soren came into the fight with a definite height advantage which he used to good effect in the first round, sending in a some great punch combinations putting an standing eight count on the Thai and everyone thought it would be an early night. The second round was slower with both boxers seeming tentative and searching – this picked up dramatically in the 3rd round. Vuttichai really worked on the grappling with his trademark knees, doing his best to tie Soren up and being sent back by a continuous barrage of punching , some accurate elbows coming from both and the Thai charging forward . An exciting 5-round war with Vuttichai taking a points victory and a great performance by both boys who left the ring to a standing ovation.
Another highlight was Australia’s Joel Fisher stepping up against New Zealand’s Sone Vanathy at 63 kgs (IFMA Silver medal winner). This was a great battle with both boxers really powering it up right from the off with powerful leg-kicks. Sone took the second round with a very accurate elbow cutting Joel who fought on with great spirit, giving as good as he got. Incredibly the pace stepped up in the last 3 rounds with both working hard on the grapple, Sone pulling out his trademark jumping knees to the crowd’s delight. It all went down to the wire, both having to pull energy out of nowhere for a thrilling finish - Joel taking a points victory. What a great match between Australia and New Zealand with a rematch already in the pipeline.
A really solid undercard, with fighters from Queensland and New South Wales travelling to take on the Victorian boxers, filled out the night. All the undercard fights were sanctioned by the IFMA with IFMA judges ensuring fair results for all the athletes.
A great international show ,once again showing the talent of Australian fighters and another fantastic event in one of Australia’s major cities – full credit to the Brute Force team, the Oceania MuayThai Federation the WMC and IFMA !
