Fury FC 2 - Sao Paulo, Brazil

Dave Kaplan (Team Lloyd Irvin) vs Christiano Marcello (Chute Boxe)

Well the fights are over and the results are in. Team Lloyd Irvin David Kaplan lost second round by triangle choke. First round saw David and his opponent exchanging lots of punches and kicks. Once it hit the ground we saw lots of action with having to defend submission after submission. With about 20 seconds left in the 1st round Dave escaped an armbard and end up on top. From there Dave started releasing a storm of punches that looked like the fight might be stopped. Then the bell rang. End of round one.

Round two saw more of the standing game and lots of clinhing as both men looked tired. Dave did a reversal taking the fight to the ground but ended up with getting caught in a triangle choke. As Dave tried to escape the triangle choke got extremely tight. Dave was forced to tap with 2:30 remaining in round 2. Dave got some great International experience and it will only help him grow into an even stronger fighter.

Dave Kaplan's Fight Video coming soon...

Mike Easton (Team Lloyd Irvin) VS Hudson Rocha (Brazilian Top Team)

Mike Easton wins by Knock Out in the second round. It started off VERY rough for Mike as he got caught in the choke early in round one. Everyone had told us that Hudson was extremely good at this choke and if he catches you with it the fight would be over. Well the first part was correct, but the fight the last part was not. Mike escaped the choke but was almost out on his feet. Hudson throws a BIG flying knee almost catching Mike, then takes Mike to the ground where the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Black Belt wanted to finish the fight.

Mikes jiu jitsu skills held up and the ref told the fighters to stand back up. Hudson screamed “NO”, then refused to get up, after a talking from the ref the fight was restarted and the rest is history.
