SMOKER FIGHT 3 RESULT

Davao has a rich heritage of Warriors "baganis", lumads who fought for their freedom, who fought for their people.

To name a few:

Datu Balingan, who defended the Mansaka and Mandaya tribes in Davao Oriental from the hands of the Spanish official Captain Uyanguren. Datu Bago of the Bagobo tribe fought Captain Uyanguren in Davao City.

Its the 21st Century and still the Blood of a Warrior lives, burns and runs in the veins of the Dabawenyos. They are our local martial arts practitioners who honed their craft by hard core training, intense discipline, and unwavering perseverance.

And thru this competition our local amateur martial artists will be able to showcase their skills. Thru this event, we will be able to have a rebirth, bringing to life the warrior spirit within our local scene.

Quotes from Fighters...

"Face your fears, live your dreams, trust GOD, cause God has a plan for each one of us...Enjoy your family, take care of your life, watch what you do, and in everything you do, make sure it will be good for you today and tomorrow. Dont think only of today and dont try to live in your past. Coz in your past there is nothing you can do about it..dont have regrets, ok have regrets but make it better, dont live a life like saying... I wish , I wish..no, just make it better today, so that tomorrow... Always remember the sun rises and the sun sets. Make sure live for the future,

GOD bless you!"

Discipline, skills key to fighters' conquest

By Marianne L. Saberon-Abalayan
DAVAO SUNSTAR article

DISCIPLINE, patience and right strategies did the trick for Team Phoenix-Moo Duk Kwan Davao's sterling triple victories in the Ultimate Strikers Championship (USC) 5 Saturday at the SM Bicutan in Parañaque City.

"Our players were very disciplined and patient. We instructed them not to brawl early and to study their taller and bigger opponents. What happened at the USC 5 was a very good break for Davao Muay Thai players," head coach Edgar Alan Paulino said. "Hopefully we can bring more Davao talents to compete in Manila."

Steve "Red Knight" Grandeza hacked out a knockout victory over Francis "Baguio" Romero while Rudy "4K Kevkatchi" Tacogue beat Christopher Tamayo via unanimous decision and Carlo "Red Rock" Laude scored a third round knockout win over Manuel "Cobra" Silvano of Quezon City.

"We are happy with the result. We performed well considering that our rivals were more seasoned in Muay Thai competitions than us. But there is no time to relax though as I will resume rigid training for my world title fight in Dubai on Oct. 1," Grandeza said in yesterday's Davao Sportswriters Association (DSA) Forum at the Tower Inn.

Assistant coach Bryan Grandeza also praised the performances of their wards saying.

"They really had good preparation and listened to us very well," Grandeza said.

Laude, a first Dan MDK blackbelt, said he didn't expect to win as it was his first time to compete in full contact sport.

"It was also my first time to compete in Muay Thai and to had done so outside the city. It was really a whole new experience for me and I'm so happy. I thanked my coaches for their help with my techniques. My ears were just attuned to them during the fight and I didn't even listen to the referee's reminders," Laude said.

Tacogue, a former sparring partner of the world's pound-for-pound boxer Manny Pacquaio, said he looks forward to competing in more Muay Thai tournaments.
"I quit boxing when I had an injury yet now I'm into Muay Thai and I'm enjoying it," Tacogue said in the vernacular.

Steve Grandeza said he will face a Ghana fighter in Dubai.

"We will study his fights over the net. But I think I have an edge over him since he had nowhere to see my fights. I didn't upload any video of my fights so as not to give my opponents any idea," he said.

The team thanked Davao City Mayor Inday Sara Duterte and Vice Mayor Rody R. Duterte, Dennis Uy of Phoenix Fuel and Christopher "Bong" Go for their support.

3rd Smoker Fight

Since there were several requests from the fighters and some enthusiasts, there will be a second smoker fight this 20th of August 2010 at NCC MALL, 6 in the afternoon. This time it is an open invitational, for those willing individuals who would want to experience fighting inside the ring. It will be one heck of a day and by this we hope to achieve our goal which is helping the fighters have the feel of competing. It is a non sanctioned fight and only for amateurs. Together with Tattoo artists, bikers, hard rock metal bands and vintage car enthusiasts, an alliance, a whole new total experience, a rare event.

MMA is on its way to be the next big thing here in Davao. Or maybe it is already a big thing. One of the must component for an MMA practitioner is ground game.
