Tonight is the night for something entirely different for the All Time Boxing organization as it delves for the first time into the world of Mixed Martial Arts to crown the first ever All Time Fighting Vale Tudo champion! No weight classes, no restrictions, just eight fighters, one night, one champion standing at the end, with four of Pride FC's greats up against four legendary figures from the history of various martial arts. Catch it all on the Senatorial Streaming Service, directly following the 8:00 PM (CT) broadcast of SWA Renewal on our timeline! www.twitch.tv/senatorphillipsA few additional notes: -Aleksander Karelin is reportedly displeased that All Time Fighting has decided to turn down his request for pinfall victories in the tournament ruleset, with his camp stating that "it makes no sense to have a wrestler fight but take away his main path to victory." Even so, Karelin has vowed to slam his opponents into submission. -The Smithsonian Society held a number of simulations of the event beforehand and have released their most likely finding to the general public:
Quarterfinals
-Karelin defeats Emelianeko through pure physical superiority and grappling dominance, despite taking heavy damage on the feet.
-Silva defeats Gracie with his sheer aggression, and by keeping the fight standing for the most part.
-Filipovic defeats Oyama by landing more of his heavy kicks and catching the karateka on the counter.
-Nogueria defeats Figg by submission, but takes damage on the feet, with the Englishman walking through many of his punches to deliver his own.
Semifinals
-Karelin defeats Silva, ragdolling his smaller foe into submission
-Filipovic defeats Nogueria, with both fighters taking the fight late, but a left high kick puts the Croatian through to the finals.
Finals
-Karelin defeats Filipovic, dictating that the bulk of the fight takes place in the clinch and on the mat, and scores a knockout slam win to take the tournament.
(As a side note, I've made, and downloaded a ton of new moves for the fighters that will appear tonight, including eight new, never before seen moves, so do show up and see them all in action!) |

All Time Fighting debuted with an incredibly successful grand prix tournament, with the first ever Vale Tudo champion crowned and some tremendous moments all around. RESULTS All Time Boxing Presents: All Time Fighting #1 Friday, August 28th, following the broadcast of SWA Renewal on our timeline All Time Fighting Vale Tudo Championship Bout Winner of Block A vs. Winner of Block B  This was it, the fight for all the marbles. And while Silva seemed less than intimidated, swinging away in the pocket, Cro Cop made him pay dearly, not unlike in their first meeting, and put Silva down late in the first round with his signature left high kick to become the first ever All Time Fighting Vale Tudo champion! Special Attraction Bout Anderson Silva vs. Bruce Lee  A tentative, deliberately paced bout between two standout martial artists, but Anderson Silva's size and evolved skills were the difference, as he locked in a triangle choke in the second round to score the win over the Jeet Kune Do icon. Block B Semi-Final Bout Mirko Cro Cop vs. Antonio Rodrigo Nogueria  A great fight between these two old rivals, but amazingly, this time, Cro Cop held on, and in a second round scramble, countered Nogueira on the ground, locking in an arm triangle choke on the BJJ specialist to go onto the finals in a most unlikely fashion. Block A Semi-Final Bout Aleksandr Karelin vs. Wanderlei Silva  An astounding performance by Silva, who took the fight to his heavily favored foe from the opening bell and didn't let up for the entire first round, landing repeated head kicks and hooks from every angle, even sending his much larger opponent out of the ring with a flurry of knees before even more knees to the body would put Karelin down for the count, accomplishing what even the great Fedor could not. Block B Quarter-Final Bout Antonio Rodrigo Nogueria vs. James Figg  While Figg's single minded aggression and roughhouse approach helped him land shots in the standup, Nogueria was able to take him down into a rear naked choke to secure a first round win. Block B Quarter-Final Bout Mirko Cro Cop vs. Mas Oyama  A remarkably strategic bout with Oyama and Cro Cop carefully landing precise counter strikes for two full rounds, with the Croatian managing to open a cut with a straight left right at the end of the second. A belly to belly suplex would slam Oyama into the mat and finish him at the start of the third round, but both men can be proud of their performance in this one. Block A Quarter-Final Bout Wanderlei Silva vs. Helio Gracie  This was pretty much everything that it was expected to be. Gracie made it out of the first round through his grappling skills and sheer tenacity, but Silva soon finished it in the second with a flurry of punches from top guard. Block A Quarter-Final Bout Fedor Emelianenko vs. Aleksandr Karelin  This was a surprising loss for Emelianenko to a degree, but nobody should ever overlook the unearthly ability of Karelin, who shrugged off his fellow Russian's attacks and managed to move onto the semi-finals after spiking his foe with a signature Karelin Lift following a scramble to net a first round victory. So much for not being able to win by pinfall... |

Three Contenders To Be Named
By Nat Fleischer
Not unlike the boxing scene of the past, the All Time Boxing hierarchy is clouded at best. There is no definitive ranking system and title contention has been a subject of much discussion. While the endless promoter politics and sanctioning bodies that boxing suffered from are thankfully left to history, the lack of clear organization has left the title scene in disarray. The Smithsonian Society has been more interested in studying its subjects than in regulating All Time Boxing. That is not always to its detriment. The matches that do happen may take some time to come about, but they do so bereft of much of the corruption that accompanied the sport's infrastructure. As such, the lack of order, as frustrating as it may be at times, is something I can forgive.
This Friday, however, we will have three clear-cut contenders named following a trio of outstanding matchups. Two of the heaviest hitters in history will vie for the Heavyweight title, with the younger version of George Foreman pitting his hammering blows against the lightning combinations of the man known in his prime as Kid Dynamite, Mike Tyson. This is certain to be a contest that concludes within the span of a breath. Both Foreman and Tyson have the ability to put their opponent down for the count in short order. Foreman is seen as containing the edge in physical strength and durability while Tyson's hand speed and elusiveness are his edge.
For the Lightweight title, Mexico's meteoric hero, Salvador Sanchez will take on the peerless Irishman, the Nonpareil Jack Dempsey. Both are well rounded threats who can fight various styles and have found some success in the All Time Boxing ring. Nearly a century separates the original careers of Dempsey and Sanchez, but there is no question that both will embody the mentality once vocalized by Dempsey when he stated that "a champion never quits."
The Middleweight title will soon find a contender as well, as Roberto Duran moves up from a catchweight victory over Floyd Mayweather Jr. to fight the Light Heavyweight great, John Henry Lewis. This is a considerable mismatch on paper, with Lewis bringing a complete skillset and his own greatness to bear against the much smaller Duran. The old adage states that the good big man generally beats the good small man. One should not inform the Hands of Stone that he is disfavored, if they wish to avoid any unpleasant encounters, though.
The final two fights on the card will not provide any direct title opportunities. They will present intriguing scenarios for the discriminating fight fan. Tyson Fury, the improbable nigh-seven foot Gypsy King was perhaps the best Heavyweight technician from his era, able to slip punches like a Middleweight and outwork his foes. He will take on one of the best counter-boxers in the division's history in Ken Norton. Known as the Black Hercules for his physique, Norton had enough punch to break Muhammad Ali's jaw and nearly defeated Larry Holmes in a close decision. Norton will find himself in a difficult matchup against the much larger Fury, but he may well have the tools to win this matchup. The opening bout is no less interesting. The great Sam Langford, a man held back more by the odious racial practices of his time than by his ability will slug it out with Ron Lyle, a man who backed down from nothing between the ropes of the squared circle. Fireworks will be unavoidable in this one.

RESULTS All Time Boxing #18: Night of the Contenders 8:00 PM (CT) on our timeline on Friday, October 2nd All Time Boxing Heavyweight #1 Contender Bout Young George Foreman vs. Mike Tyson  The general prediction going into this fight was that it was not going to last long. Surprisingly, Foreman and Tyson went into the third round, with Big George clubbing Tyson into the mat with his heavy handed punches, earning his shot at Joe Louis's Heavyweight title. All Time Boxing Lightweight #1 Contender Bout Salvador Sanchez vs. Nonpariel Jack Dempsey  A great boxing match that was as even as could be down the stretch, with Salvador Sanchez pulling ahead in the fifth, using his superior hand speed to take the win, earning his shot at Joe Gans and the Lightweight title. All Time Boxing Middleweight #1 Contender Bout John Henry Lewis vs. Roberto Duran  A back and forth fight between two quality all arounders, with Roberto Duran pulling himself back from the brink of defeat, landing a series of stiff uppercuts en route to a fifth round victory and a rematch with his old foe, Sugar Ray Leonard with the Middleweight title up for grabs. Heayvweight Tyson Fury vs. Ken Norton  A tactical battle with Norton pushing forward and setting the pace, but Tyson Fury was able to weather the storm, slowing the fight down leading into the fifth, where he earned the win. Heavyweight Ron Lyle vs. Sam Langford  After a strong start by Sam Langford, Ron Lyle seemed to take the momentum back with his size and power edge looking to lead him to victory...but Langford's quality came into play at the start of the third as he caught his foe with a vicious counter to earn the knockout. |

A Mixed Night of Fights
By Bert Randolph Sugar and Dana White
Bert Sugar: Ostensibly, you would not mix mayonnaise into a perfectly good glass of whiskey. Certainly, one would not soak their cigars with the type of irradiated sauce that a hole in the wall Mexican restaurant would keep in the back room. And in my opinion, it is an unmitigated assault on good taste and honest sensibilities to pair the manly art of self defense with the sport known as Mixed Martial Arts.
Dana White: And this is where Mr. Sugar and myself are going to have to agree to disagree. Because, on this card of fights, you don't just get the best boxing in history, but without having to go anywhere else, you get All Time Fighting's Vale Tudo division of Mixed Martial Arts, with the Last Emperor, Fedor Emelianenko settling his business with the Greco Roman Experiment, a true monster of a man in Aleksandr Karelin. It's two of the baddest men who ever lived, two stone cold Russian manaics who are going to stop at nothing to prove for once and for all who's the best between them.
Sugar: Aside from that, we have the Lightweight champion, the Old Master, Joe Gans defending his title against Salvador Sanchez. Gans is one of the finest fighters ever to lace up a pair of gloves, and was far ahead of his time, able to blend offence and defense with a sublime understanding. His opponent, Salvador Sanchez has similar attributes, as confident as they come in every aspect of the game, an almost telepathic counter puncher who could push the pace. I think this could end up being the fight of the year. The ladies will also fight for a belt, with Holly Holm defending against Lucia Rijker, and I believe Rijker is the heavy favorite here. I cannot say I know much more about that one. There is also a battle of the TNT Tonys of the 80s, with Tony Tubbs and Tony Tucker fighting in the Heavyweight division, and a great battle between the Hitman, the Motor City Cobra, Thomas Hearns matching his deadly offence against the schooled defense of the great Charley Burley. The fireworks of Hearns, with that serpentine straight right hand and blistering body combinations may have rendered him more popular in his day than Burley's spoiler tactics, but when even Sugar Ray Robinson ducks you, there's something dangerous there to encounter.

RESULTS All Time Boxing #19: Gans vs. Sanchez All Time Boxing Lightweight Title Bout Joe Gans(C) vs. Salvador Sanchez  In two rounds, the Old Master, Joe Gans reminded the world why he was the ATB Lightweight champion, thoroughly dominating his fight with Salvador Sanchez, knocking him out at the end of the first round with one of his vaunted uppercuts just as the bell rung. Sanchez was sent back out for the second, and did his best to survive, even making it back to his feet following another knockdown, but a crisp jab would put him back down again, and although the Mexican legend would bravely stand back up, he did not manage to do so before the ten count was called. All Time Boxing Women's Title Bout Holly Holm(C) vs. Lucia Rijker  Holly Holm seemed to be well ahead on the scorecards, controlling the pace and getting the best of the exchanges for the first three rounds. A heavy punch from Rijker would open up a cut on the Preacher's Daughter in the 4th, and another would put her down for the count, leading to a new All Time Boxing Womens champion, Lucia Rijker, the fourth woman to hold the title at this point. All Time Fighting Vale Tudo Division: Karelin vs. Emelianenko II Aleksandr Karelin vs. Fedor Emelianenko  In this rematch, Karelin was as dominant as expected in the clinch, and active on the mat, walking through Emelianenko's vaunted power to repeatedly take him to the mat for pinfall attempts and Karelin Lifts. While Fedor would counter repeatedly with armbar attempts, it seemed as if Karelin was overwhelming him for the most part. However, late in the ten minute round, it would be the Last Emperor turning the tide with one big well-timed right hand that finished the Experiment, evening the count between the two legendary Russian athletes. All Time Boxing Heavyweight Division Tony Tubbs vs. Tony Tucker  Tony Tucker seemed to be far and ahead through the first two rounds of this battle of the TNT Tonys, but Tony Tubbs managed to pull off a solid comeback that commenced in a win early in the 4th. All Time Boxing Middleweight Division Thomas Hearns vs. Charley Burley  A tremendous back and forth battle, with Hearns dominating the early going with his power and range, but Charley Burley fought his way back in with guile, skill and exquisite timing, taking the fight to the seventh round, but the Hitman managed to reclaim the momentum late in the 6th, leading to a KO win in the following round. Hearns should find himself in good standing in the Middleweight division after this win, likely challenging the winner of Leonard-Duran for the belt in the future. |

A special Christmas Day broadcast on the Senatorial Streaming Service, with an extra-size All Time Boxing event airing at 8:00 PM (CT) As usual, ATB events go by pretty fast, and I for one do not intend to run any longer on the day, but I figure that a little fistic entertainment could be a nice little intrusion on the holiday celebrations.

A Merry Fistmas to All
By Nat Fleischer
The holidays still hold resonance even in this distant age of tomorrow. Reinforcing that point, All Time Boxing presents its twentieth event with an expanded format. There will be two title bouts to close out all the projected fights from the recent title eliminators. Once again, a battle royale brings a wide variety of Heavyweight fighters together. Some of the biggest names in boxing history will also compete across this event. For the boxing fans of this era, a celebration is at hand.
To open the festive fights, eight men will throw their lot into the ring for a sixty minute battle royale. The masterful James Corbett and knockout artist Deontay Wilder headline this unorthodox bout, with the promise that if one man can eliminate all his foes, he will end up jumping ahead in the Heavyweight division. In a more orthodox contest in the division, "Terrible" Tim Witherspoon and his crushing overhand will test the defensive abilities of the "Slip Master" Chris Byrd. Witherspoon was the third best Heavyweight of the 1980s behind Mike Tyson and Larry Holmes. While many believed he did not entirely fulfill his potential, Witherspoon was a well-balanced threat to any opponent. Although he was drastically undersized and outpowered at the division Chris Byrd made the absolute most out of his positives and he was able to make opponents look outright foolish with his subtle upper body movement and close range footwork.
Three excellent fights featuring monumental figures make up the middle of the card. Two Mexican greats in Julio Cesar Chavez and Juan Manuel Marquez face off at Lightweight. Marquez is a masterful counter puncher who demonstrated his abilities in his legendary series with Manny Pacquiao. Cesar Chavez was as much a cultural icon as an athlete. Do not let the adulation of the Mexican public blind oneself to his own considerable qualities in the ring. Chavez had few peers in going to the body and his fierce pressure broke down many opponents. Saul "Canelo" Alvarez and Marvelous Marvin Hagler will meet at Middleweight. While much controversy has been generated by Canelo's close decisions, his pound for pound status as a skilled power puncher are not debated. Hagler has been considered by many as the best to ever compete at Middleweight and his aggressive southpaw lead right hook led to the vanquish of many of his opponents. Finally, we have the man who called himself the Greatest of All Time, Muhammad Ali up against another Heavyweight who has found recent success in All Time Boxing, Ezzard Charles. Ali's speed of hand and foot are matched by an iron chin and mental fortitude. This combination was formidable in his own era, even if it has not yielded gold in this one. Charles, a former standout at Light Heavyweight, was the successor to Joe Louis at Heavyweight, with few holes in his style, even if he may be somewhat undersized compared by the dreadnaughts that followed him at Heavy. A winner in this fight will almost certainly become the next challenger for the title.
The two title bouts are each worthy of their own spotlight. Each featured champion has turned back a wide array of challengers. Both achieved greatness in their own time and maintained it in All Time Boxing. Sugar Ray Leonard will first defend his Middleweight title against his greatest adversary, Roberto Duran. The Hands of Stone overcame Leonard in their first meeting in 1980 as Duran moved up from Lightweight to win at Welter. They would meet again in the same year, with Leonard boxing Duran into submission, leading to the infamous "No Mas" incident as Duran quit. The two would meet a third time with both men past their prime, but the less said about that encounter, the better. With both Duran and Leonard at their very best again, this should prove to be a true tactical masterpiece. Duran's bruising inside attack and Leonard's speedy flurries will each be tested to their limit.
Joe Louis has been the undisputed standout of All Time Boxing. The undefeated Heavyweight champion has knocked out every opponent he has faced. But he has not taken on the likes of Young George Foreman. Having defeated Mike Tyson to earn his opportunity, Foreman may well hit harder, blow for blow than Louis does. He has a rock solid chin and a marauder's mentality. Louis is undersized and may be outgunned. It is in fights such as these that the true measure of a champion is realized. Louis has passed every other test up to this point. While Foreman may be the theoretical favorite in some ways, Louis's faster punches and brilliant combinations paired with an ability to rise up from knockdowns and adapt to his opponents could turn the tables on the front runner. No matter what the result is, it is certain that this fight will deliver for the aficionados.

A night of mixed results, with several fighters apparently partaking a bit too heavily in holiday festivities leading up to the event, but those who showed up in top form put on a proper show to make up for it. RESULTS All Time Boxing #20: The Clash on Christmas 8:00 PM (CT) on our time on Friday, December 25th All Time Boxing Heavyweight Title Bout Joe Louis(C) vs. Young George Foreman  In a night with some surprising disappointments and bouts that did not measure up to any expectations, Big George and the Brown Bomber delivered everything anyone could have hoped from their encounter. For three thunderous rounds, Foreman battered Louis with his otherworldly power and ruthless aggression. And while it seemed at several points that Louis was in legitimate danger of losing his title and his undefeated ATB record, it was in that third round that the champion would once again show his quality, dropping Foreman over and over again with crisp power punches leading to a TKO stoppage. All Time Boxing Middleweight Title Bout Sugar Ray Leonard(C) vs. Roberto Duran  If you blinked, you missed it. Roberto Duran had unfortunately been spotted at some of the same parties as Muhammad Ali attended in recent weeks, and like Ali, paid dearly for his lack of focus with Ray Leonard again defending his title, this time, with a first round knockout, making it look all too effortless. Heavyweight Muhammad Ali vs. Ezzard Charles  Muhammad Ali reportedly did a minimal amount of training for this fight, and off handedly told reporters of his lack of esteem for Charles, stating that "Charles is no cobra, he doesn't make me quake, I'll tell you what he is, he's just a garter snake. He's fast, but I'm faster, I'm bigger and stronger, and tougher, I'm too much for Ezzard, he couldn't keep me down with a sledgehammer!" And as such, for eight excruciating rounds, Ali danced around, swayed away from punches, took shots on the chin, did anything but engage in an actual fight. Over and over, Ezzard Charles fired away with a cold professional focus, sending Ali to the mat, but the Greatest would rise up again and again, to the point that it almost seemed supernatural. And yet, by the eighth, even Ali's indominable will would not be enough to bring him back to his feet, and Ezzard Charles would earn a most unlikely, bizarre victory. Middleweight Canelo Alvarez vs. Marvelous Marvin Hagler  Hagler was prepared for a war, but he was not ready for the nuke of a counter right hand that detonated on his chin in the second round, scoring a shocking upset for Alvarez. Lightweight Julio Cesar Chavez vs. Juan Manuel Marquez  Marquez would put up a worthy fight for Chavez, but the Mexican icon simply had too much, popping his jab repeatedly and walking through heavy punishment to land big combinations and a crushing knockout hook in the third. Heavyweight Tim Witherspoon vs. Chris Byrd  A solid fight, with Witherspoon pushing the pace and letting loose with his famed overhand, but Byrd's defensive skills allowed him to survive the onslaught and a counter flurry to the body would pick up the win in the 4th for the Slip Master. Battle Royale Sailor Tom Sharkey vs. James J. Corbett vs. Deontay Wilder vs. David Tua vs. Leon Spinks vs. Andrew Golata vs. Paolino Uzcudun vs. Robert Helenius  A battle marked by three quick knockouts with Tua, Helanius and Uzcudun dropped as the match developed. Sharkey and Golata were eliminated soon after by a toss over the ropes, leaving Spinks, Wilder and Corbett as the final three survivors. Wilder managed to deposit Spinks eventually, but left himself open to a surprise attack from Corbett, who snuck up and threw him out for the victory. |

Keeping the Tradition
By Dana White
In my time, it's always been a mixed martial arts tradition in Japan to hold a big spectacle event. You'd get some of the most ridiculous freak show fights on the same card as the big competitive title bouts, and they'd present it with all the pageantry they could think of. You know, I never bought into all that, but when you have access to the sort of talent that we have here, and you have people looking for the most insane bullshit spectacle that we can present, well, this is a time where you give the people what they want.
You want legit fighting? We got that. Quinton "Rampage" Jackson is going to take on Daniel Cormier in the main event and the winner will go on to fight Mirko Cro Cop for the Vale Tudo championship in a month. These are two bad men who can hit hard and slam harder, and I know I can't wait to see what happens here. You want wrestling? We have the two best freestyle wrestlers of all time with Dan Gable and Cael Sanderson facing off, best of three falls. You want sumo? Hakuho Sho and Asashoryu are two total badasses in their own sport, and if you think these guys aren't athletic, then you're in for one of the biggest surprises of your life here. And keeping with the Japanese flavor of this event, we have the Godhand, Mas Oyama up against Mr. Perfect, Ernesto Hoost, Kyokushin Karate against Dutch Kickboxing. Kazushi Sakuraba wanted a challenge for this, and I threw him one, as he gets to take on Jon "Bones" Jones. Do I think he can win? Not really. But can he give him a fight? No doubt. The Axe Murderer, Wanderlei Silva proved he could beat bigger opponents when he kicked the shit out of Aleksandr Karelin at the first All Time Fighting event. So this time, we'll give him the Beast, Bob Sapp to see if he can do that again. Judo or Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu? Gene LeBell and Helio Gracie are going to try to find the answer to that question. And finally, for some reason, people here in this future really wanted to see Kimbo Slice. I mean, the guy's legit popular here for some reason, and we'll feed him Teila Tuli to open this up. So that's what we have for you here, a night of fights to close out the year and celebrate this mindblowing time I still can't wrap my mind around.

Combat Corner: News and Notes for All Time Boxing and All Time Fighting
A last minute adjustment is being made to tonight's All Time Fighting event, with Teila Tuli having reportedly injured his foot while taking part in a morning warmup. While the technology for what we would consider to be a miraculous recovery is entirely within the capabilities of the Smithsonian Institute, it will not heal Tuli fast enough to make his fight for tonight.
In Tuli's place, Major League Baseball veteran and brief Japanese MMA participant, Jose Canseco will step in to face Kimbo Slice. The former Oakland A's player was reportedly eager to jump in. As All Time Fighting does not test for archaic performance enhancement compounds, only ensuring that contemporary pure nano boosts(post-concussion and trauma nanos not included in the ban) and DNA shifters are not involved, Canseco can likely resort to the steroids that helped fuel his swing in his lucrative baseball career, but Slice is still a lopsided favorite in this fight.
---
Muhammad Ali's questionable performance against Ezzard Charles will lead to a rematch at the next All Time Boxing event. Ali's reported lack of training and dismissive attitude towards his opponent have infuriated members of All Time Boxing management, but word has it that the Smithsonian Institute has dictated that Ali be given every chance to earn a championship superfight against Joe Louis, considering his historical and cultural relevance. With the Institute overriding any potential disciplinary action, Ali-Charles II will officially be a title eliminator with the winner going on to take on the undefeated Heavyweight champion.
---
There has been talk over mirroring All Time Boxing's title structure for All Time Fighting, with a Middleweight, Lightweight and Women's championship, but at this point in time, the Vale Tudo Championship will remain as an openweight belt, with any non-division fights being considered as superfights rather than ranking bouts.

The second All Time Fighting event may have had some big mismatches, but it also had some amazingly competitive fights, delivering a true authentic New Year's Eve MMA spectacle. RESULTS All Time Fighting #2: New Year's Explosion[/b] 8:30 PM (CT) in our time on Thursday, December 31st All Time Fighting Vale Tudo Championship Title Eliminator Rampage Jackson vs. Daniel Cormier  Rampage gave DC everything he could handle for the first round of this fight, hitting powerbombs, suplexes and overhands with reckless abandon, and nearly finishing him at the end of the stanza. While Jackson kept the pressure on into the second, Cormier patiently held on, eventually managing to catch him with a series of elbows from top guard to score a second round stoppage, earning a fight with Mirko Cro Cop at the next All Time Fighting event. Freestyle Challenge Dan Gable vs. Cael Sanderson    Two of the greatest wrestlers of all time took three rounds of utterly thrilling counters and reversals to find out that neither could score a pinfall on the other. Gable and Sanderson were as fluid as a fast flowing creek and as sharp as a surgical scapel in their match, and while a draw is rarely seen as a positive outcome in combat sports, this was undoubtedly the exception to the rule and a standout bout in the entirety of All Time Boxing-All Time Fighting history. Sumo Challenge Hakuho Sho vs. Asashoryu  With a leinent criteria set for a full knockdown, Hakuho Sho and Asashoryu presented a quality display of the art of Sumo, with Hakuho eventually proving his superiority with a big charging rush. Ernesto Hoost vs. Mas Oyama  A thrilling, engaging fight between two extremely different strikers, with Ernesto Hoost taking an early lead with his well schooled kickboxing. Mas Oyama seemed on the verge of defeat, with Hoost peppering him with kicks to the head, body and legs, when he hit his signature Bull Killing Chop to close the second round. The third round was all Oyama, who landed thunderous strikes and a big combination culminating in a knee to the face to score a comeback win. Kazushi Sakuraba vs. Jon Bones Jones  In his usual audacious style, Kazushi Sakuraba entered into this gigantic mismatch wearing a pro wrestling mask. And yet, the IQ Fighter made the absolute most of his opportunity against one of the all time greats, showing no fear against Jon Jones, holding his own on the mat. However, standing, and in the clinch, Jones was far superior, opening a cut through the mask early on, working it over with elbows and dirty boxing. Sakuraba would survive on sheer grit and determination into the second round, where Jones eventually punched him out on the mat. Wanderlei Silva vs. Bob Sapp  There may be few worse opponents for a hard charging, outsized Silva than the Beast, Bob Sapp. And while Wanderlei certainly gave this a proper effort, Sapp simply hit too hard for the Axe Murderer, ragdolling him and landing big clubbing strikes before finishing up with heavy fists from the back mount halfway through the first. Gene LeBell vs. Helio Gracie  A superb grappling contest between two pioneers of MMA, and while Judo Gene was superior in the clinch, it would be a classic cross choke from Gracie, utilizing the gi to finish the fight in the second round. Kimbo Slice vs. Jose Canseco  The only problem for Kimbo Slice was keeping his stamina intact in this fight, eventually managing to put his outmatched foe away with a back mount flurry of fists early in the second round. |

The Best of the Best
By Dana White
Here in this future, we don't do things half-assed for you fans. We give you the best fights we can make with some of the greatest fighters who ever stepped into an arena. Whether it's All Time Boxing or All Time Fighting, we're making the sort of dream cards that you deserve. And All Time Fighting #3 is no exception to this rule. I've talked before that All Time Fighting wants to branch out and find something for every fan out there. So we're starting off with the Street Certified brawler, Kimbo Slice going up against the founder of Krav Maga, Imi Lichtenfeld. You wanted Kimbo again, and you're getting him. And Lichtenfeld was a legit badass who fought Nazis in the street and trained some of the deadliest warriors on the planet.
From there, we have a fight that should satisfy the people who want to see legit mixed martial arts, with Shogun Rua and the Natural, Randy Couture facing off. You have a guy who was a two promotional champion against a two divisional UFC champion. Rua's Muay Thai and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu up against Couture's Greco Roman background, this is a fight that any purist should be thrilled with. Then, we have an absolute freakshow of a fight, with the massive Bob Sapp coming off a win over Wanderlei Silva to take on James Toney, and if I get this right, he's actually the second version of James Toney that this Smithsonian Society has brought here from the past, the older Heavyweight version. Look, I'm going to be perfectly honest with you, this isn't my cup of tea, but I know there's a lot of people out there who want to see if Toney can turn the Beast's lights out, or if it's Sapp Time again.
Bruce Lee returns to the All Time Fighting ring again, this time, he's going to fight Kyokushin Karate founder, Mas Oyama, who earned an impressive win over Ernesto Hoost at the last ATF event. Lee is going to have to use his speed and reflexes like never before here, because Oyama's one hit knockout power and toughness are going to be tough for him to get past, it's the equivalent to a fighter plane going up against a destroyer. In our co-main event, we have a grappler up against a striker, with Brock Lesnar making his All Time Fighting debut against another newcomer to our ring, Francis Ngannou. Both of these behemoths are built to take advantage of each other's biggest weakness, and either man can win this one if he can impose his game first.
Finally, that brings us to the main event, with Mirko Cro Cop defending his All Time Fighting Vale Tudo Championship against the man who earned it last time around, DC, Daniel Cormier. Cormier beat Rampage Jackson in a hell of a fight, and he's going to look to land his big overhands to set up his Olympic caliber takedowns. We all know what Cro Cop does. Right leg, hospital, left leg, cemetery. He's got underrated defensive grappling skills and uses them to set up his precision striking. And with that, we have an event that no real fight fan will want to miss. Make sure you catch this one live, or you'll regret it!

A new champion and some impressive comeback wins marked this night of martial arts action as All Time Fighting continues to make its own mark under the All Time Boxing umbrella. RESULTS All Time Fighting #3: Cro Cop vs. Cormier All Time Fighting Vale Tudo Championship Bout Mirko Cro Cop(C) vs. Daniel Cormier  A tremendous contest with the title on the line, as Cro Cop's striking was on point for long stretches of the fight. But Daniel Cormier was determined to make the absolute best of his opportunity, enduring the powerful kicks, avoiding a flush left high kick, and landed several big powerslams late in the fight to turn the tide, eventually opening a cut in the third round with his ground and pound, and finishing it from top guard with a flurry of knockout punches to become the new All Time Fighting Vale Tudo champion. Brock Lesnar vs. Francis Ngannou  Ngannou's striking proved to be the deciding factor in this one as the heavy handed Cameroonian managed to endure Lesnar's wrestling and would put him away in the second by means of punches from bottom guard, a rather ignominious defeat for the Beast Incarnate. Bruce Lee vs. Mas Oyama  While Lee did not embarrass himself by any means, Oyama's power would prove too much, opening a cut with a straight right in the second round, and a brutal series of strikes would yield multiple knockdowns, with the Dragon somehow surviving until the third, where a huge lunging right would put him down for the stoppage. Bob Sapp vs. (Heavyweight) James Toney  As skilled as James Toney is in boxing, he was out of his element as Bob Sapp used his size to crush through Toney's schooled defense, nearly managing to earn an win by means of armbar before a set of repeated clinch knees would do the job in the second round. Mauricio Shogun Rua vs. Randy Couture  This, by all measures, seemed to be Shogun's fight, as the Brazilian landed repeated knockdown overhands, used his Muay Thai in the clinch and generally outstruck and outgrappled Couture. And yet, by the third round, it was the Natural who squeezed the victory away from him with an arm triangle choke, holding on long enough to secure the submission. Kimbo Slice vs. Imi Lichtenfeld  A rough and tumble fight that went back and forth, with Slice having strong moments in the standup, until Lichtenfeld managed to close things out with a rear naked choke from back mount in the second round. |
