See how the IFL bills our show and others'. Ryan, who competes for Miletich Fighting Systems (MFS), has been thrust into the middleweight title bout against Matt "Suave" Horwich because our friend, American hero Tim Kennedy, has been called to duty for the U.S. Army. Tim is an Army Ranger. We wish him safety and are thankful he and others in the military and their families make the sacrifice to keep peace. Ryan's last fight was a stunningly dominant knockout of Fabio Leopoldo at the IFL Team Finals in Florida back in September. Although he is taking this title fight on four weeks' notice, Ryan is known as perhaps the top-conditioned athlete of the rugged Miletich camp. We're not talking about the best person at your local gym here, we're talking about the top conditioned guy at the factory. He's always in fighting shape. Dennis is fighting at featherweight against Ian Loveland. While this fight is listed as a preliminary bout, those in the know realize it is shaping up to be one of the most exciting matchups on the loaded card.

Horodecki covered everything, from MMA to the movies, and was able to defend against the guys, who were armed with dirt about the 19-year-old superstar given by his coach and mentor, the Anacondas' Shawn Tompkins. Leading off the show guest list, Tokyo Sabres heavyweight Wayne Cole stepped in for a few minutes, giving a preview of his fight with Bryan Vetell of the NY Pitbulls (it did not turn out well for Wayne). Then Chicago Red Bears coach Igor Zinoviev stepped to the mic. Igor is still training two to three times per day and looks like he could (and should) fight any day. He hinted at a return to the ring. It came time for a change of pace, and that is when Emily Miller, our resident MMA expert, took some time to sit with Joe & Ted before starting her evening's duties as a sexy IFL ring girl.
