What a show, very good set up, great crowd. Fights were amazing, especially (cant remember the names) but Goldie was the winner, that was a WAR!

Great showing again by Yannick Magee. Henry Fadipe...wow

Hope the guy that got hurt makes a full speedy recovery

Niall tore a small tendon in his neck but otherwise is fine.we sent him to hospital just to be on the safe side but we got word during the show that he was grand,again fighter safety is paramount and it showed by the quick response from Anthony and his crew in getting him sorted as quickly as they did.
The crowd at the show should be applauded for their patience last night while waiting for teh show to re-start,they were fully aware that we couldnt continue without the medical crew and fair play to Paul and the clan wars staff for sticking to their guns and again putting fighter safety first.

Great night, some fighters making their debut and wow some of them were really impressive.

The two fighters from Oakleaf Jujitsu didnt leave a great impression. Although its not illegal, going to touch gloves and then sneakily kicking their opponent was not very sportsman like, and just plain wrong. Luckily the other guy was quick of the mark and ducked. Trying to get one up on their opponent by pretending to be a good sportsman is just what we dont need in MMA. And to the fact that the fighter didnt care when the other guy was really hurt and not even checking if his opponent was ok. Cornermen should of spoken to their fighter and taught him how to be respectful

their other fighter then acting inapproiate when he wasnt defending himself to 4-5 knees to the face and the ref calling it, fighting with the crowd and ref when he made the right decision.

Other than those it was a good night

Mrs Lynch · 16-01-2011 2:43pm

It was niall morgan who wanted to touch gloves so he could get the advantage and shoot in on pauric, because he didn't want to stand and bang with him!! Pauric wasn't trying to get upper hand on his opponent.

We do care about niall because we trained with the lad, he's one of the nicest guy's i ever met, we didn't realize how serious it was at the start and of course we checked to see if he was ok afterwards, we didn't want stand over the top of the paramedics when they were trying to do their job. We weren't trying to disrespect anyone thats not what we're about. Everyone at oakleaf jj wishes niall the best and hopes he has a speedy recovery!

Now the other fighter representing us acted in a stupid manner, and we are very embarrassed about his display towards everyone. Needless to say he won't be representing us again, and we can only apologize for his behaviour.

IFS.NI · 16-01-2011 4:46pm

It was a fantastic event and the fights where awesome, we ourselves took 4 wins from 4 fights. We were gutted again for Paul but this may sound stupid but we are now used to it - thats actually the 4th time in a row lol

Niall's accident came due to trying to roll out of a guilotine and hurting himself, the paramdeics and doctors attending him believed it to be minor but with any neck injury full protocall needed to be taken to be on the safe side. Later that night we heard he got the all clear and just had torn a small tendon and would be fine with rest. The delay was the ambulance coming back but to help things along I arranged for another ambulance to be in attendance as I was not starting the show again without one - I put the fighters safety over all else.

I think all the fights were awesome, there wasnt one that I thought was bad. It was more or less a full fight card packed with action!!

A special thanks to all my IFS crew, without them we could not operate as smoothly or professionally, a special thanks to Colin Davidson for a fantastic job debuting for his MC career haha, he did very well.

Big thanks to the fighters for their dedication dieting down over christmas, making weight and being a pleasure to work with!

Lastly the fans!! Fans were unreal, they were respectful,friendly and really enjoyed themselves, they were also very patient and understanding - the whole night was great, infact even though it was a challenger show I think it was one of the best yet!

It was announced at Clan Wars about the Approval and contract for the Ulster Hall on the 28th of May but I will start another thread about that as its brilliant news!

P.S - Mrs Lynch - No chance on the RnB, Clan Wars has a tradition to keep up - Heavy metal and rock! We will get you converted soon enough

Agree, probably because his opponent gained consciousness very quickly.

mickoo · 17-01-2011 11:06am

Great show etc etc...
Why is no 1 saying this as they had no problem telling everyone on the night.
Many fans where going around the show saying the time keeping was
dodgy at best and was working in favour of the home team-also match making seemed to forget there own fighters previous backgrounds, this is what was been said at the show by many clubs and fans so this is what I'm basing this on-clan wars care to explain?!

IFS.NI · 17-01-2011 12:54pm

I heard this on the night and even then I was shocked that people would try and stir sh1t.

Luckily we have footage of the said fight were you can time the rounds, the said fight shows the opponent tapping out at 2mins 57 secs - also on top of that Paul Hamill was doing corner and also had 2-3 secs left on his stop watch, there is further proof of this also with a picture of him showing guys and laughing.

What people seen was me reaching and asking the time keeper after the fight was called if it was over, I could not see.

I am dissappointed in peoples attitude and I thought people would no by now we do not cut corners, why would I chance everything I have worked for by getting proper sanctioning?? Answer is I wouldn't same way I wouldn't let the show continue when there was no ambulance available - I actually paid a heafty fee to bring another out to get the show back on again 20mins faster!!

I have had no complaints from any of our opponents coaches and have been talking away to them since - they all
congratsulated me on a fantastic show and we are in talks about getting there fighters back on the next.

Only thing I have learnt is not to sit cageside beside a bloody judge or time keeper to get a good view as theirs always guys looking to stir sh1t.

P.s video is free for any to view and will have a time box on the bottom.

colinlaird000 · 17-01-2011 1:45pm

From being at the Clan Wars show and having a good seat I can safely say that everything (In my humble opinion) was called straight down the middle.

Well, by one judge anyway! The production was top class in terms of razzle dazzle and MCing, yet like Ursula I would have to say that after the long night we all had due to Nialls Injury the music was a bit loud. And i would be a fan of the metal genre too. Also there were a few fights that might have looked closer on paper than they were going to play out

One thing about the stoppage due to injury was there was a potential to fill the interim with some sort of entertainment. It would have been nice to see some sort of "filler" like a grappling match / dancing monkeys etc.
In general there looked to be excellent sportsmanship from fighters and conermen, but I was mildy annoyed by Naills opponent who possibly got his celebrations going a little quickly after what looked like a serious injury to his opponent. The issue with the guy coming flying out of his corner is a bit naughty.. but not against the rules. james Thompson has done this a million times in his fights to prevent that Ju Jitsu stuff ruining his Muay Thai fight

.
In my uneducated opinion, some of the fights didn't appear terribly technical, with the exception of Henrys beautiful standup (I honestly thought he was physically mismatched coming into the ring. Mr Lavery, you were right...) And a lovely little Jiu Jitsu tussle between Yannick and Conor at the end of the night.
And am i just getting old and frail, or were there Welterweights that looked like heavyweights? :eek:

IFS.NI · 17-01-2011 1:52pm

I would also just like to give big props to Lucan MMA as they didnt buy into this drivle when they were told and believed us once they told us, they told us they know we are a genuine people and that they are in full support of Clan Wars and know of the professionalism involved.

With their own time on their stop watch,my word and the proof on the video they now know who was stirring the sh1t.

Thanks Lucan!

LOL Well as you know the inujury wasnt planned and we were clean out of monkeys.We were out the back trying to sort another ambulance - we did announce that there was photo oppertunities with the cage girls which apparently went very well .....which was nice lmao

pablohoney87 · 17-01-2011 2:09pm

Hey Guys. I was keeping time myself and by my watch I had one second left on the clock which is in the picture mentioned. I had stopped it a couple seconds late too I rekoned. In the heat of the moment when a couple other temas mentioned the incident i thought maybe but on the side of rational theres no way the guys would risk their reputation and sanctioning over a fight. As it happens that was a great battle between ciaran and fin. Ciaran left that night with his head held high and has had problems with nerves in the past. This fight I see as a massive turning point in his training and he will only come back more determined.
Hers the picture mentioned.

Paul and the clan wars guys always put on a good show. I think to make these accusations if a big insult to the guys when they put in alot of hard work. Its great to see amatuers getting their chance too, and some of the fighters making their debut were great.

You must be all getting old the music wasnt overally loud at all! must be those in their 30's and 40's who are em......sensitive to sounds!! lol

Never heard as much bollocks in my life. The only complaint seems to be from you and others with a different agenda and not the other fighters, coaches (who by the way carry their own stopwatches) or supporters of fighters, fighting lads from IFS. Every fight was recorded with the time showing on screen. All I.F.S fighters were making their debut, nothing hidden from opposing coaches/fighters so once again you are talkin outa your ass. Buy a DVD when they come out and Grow up.

colinlaird000 · 17-01-2011 4:38pm

I didn't mean they were cheating lol. I just meant they looked big! I'm middle aged now. I don't need to cut weight.

IFS.NI · 17-01-2011 5:00pm

Ok guys everyone is going way off on a tangent, all conspiracy theories have been put to rest and we have recieved apologises, no harm done but guys in future before you try and stir sh1t just know everything has been covered and double copied, we don't do anything without the sanctioning say so and every possible outcome can be covered in there. Lesson of the day is don't jump to conclusions or try and stir sh1t.

Show was excellent, brilliant crowd, great MC, timing was spot on, reffing was spot on and the cage girls were very friendly, great supporting clubs and fighters - fantastic night all round.

Those "suspiciously big guys" know how to cut weight "PROPERLY" to make weigh in. If others had the same knowledge along with the willingness to knock their balls in at our training,as well as eating properly then they would look the same. All weigh-ins are on video.

I would say Im at almost 80% of shows in the country and have seen an array of silly errors and dumb mistakes, I did not see any of this at Clan Wars and hav to say my only nag woz the music (Im too old for rock) and it being a long nite (definately old)

x

There is no point in complainin after the event on weights or history, coaches/ promotions should bring this up before the fighter enters the cage not after the fight imo

Clan Wars really impressed me and hav to say they hav great support from their fans which is brill as moving around the country and still pullin the crowd

Well done to all involved I know you had few pull outs and had to deal wif alot of flu etc but excellent show and cant wait to you bring it to the Big Smoke next lol

Totally agree with everyone on saying ClanWars 6 was a great show, and wishing nial a full and speed recovery. I don't know what fight you where watching but if you look at it again on replay you will see that both fighters touched gloves and nial shot in straight away for the takedown, so before posting your **** on the boards, you should make sure you know what you are talking about. And another thing Pauric Henery won the fight fair and square and his sportsman ship can not be questionned. Well done Pauric

fighter1 · 18-01-2011 3:32pm

Another great ClanWars, and a very big thanks to Paul and the team on looking after the safety of all the fighters both inside and outside of the cage. I look forward to the next show, and wish all those fighter who took part in ClanWars 6 great success in the year ahead. Fair play to you all for having the balls to get into the cage.

wingnut4 · 18-01-2011 3:38pm

I dont know where you were sitting but from where we were, EVERYONE couldnt believe that the glove touching didnt happen. Pauric was getting shouted at for doing what he did. It wasnt just myself, so maybe everyone else was wrong.

He won the fight fair in the end, that I dont question, his sportsmanship on the other hand can be questioned and has

fighter1 · 18-01-2011 3:56pm

I was sitting right beside the cage on Nial Morgans corner, and i have to agree with Gav 350, nial was the one who looked to touch gloves and both fighters did touch gloves, but if you look at the replay nial went straight down on his knee for a single leg takedown to which Pauric kicks him with his right leg, how do you think Nial ended up in the guillotine. Pauric and Nial are from what i hear friends and in contact with each other, and Pauric has wished Nial a full recovery, i just don't agree with you say that anyone was disrespectful, But you are entitled to your opinion. Fairplay to you, i mean thats what the boards are all about, and i respect that. Goodluck

fighter1 · 18-01-2011 4:37pm

Have to agree with you on the inapproprate behaviour of Oakleaf fighter i think it was steve owens, his behaviour after the fight was stopped by the ref was disgracefull. I even heard him telling his own corner men to go and F**k themselves, fairplay to them for acting in the manner they did and getting him of sides before things got really out of hand, not defending what the young fighter did or the way he behaved, but the size difference in that fight was massive, great stoppage bye the ref. I have heard through a friend that Oakleaf are dealing with the fighter steve owens and he might never represent oakleaf again. Not defending his actions, but we all were young once and all made mistakes, a bit of time off with an attitude adjustment might be a good thing, i mean he is only 17years off age.

Size difference massive ? Lmfao..Steve weighed in heavier than Simon..who by the way took this fight at 2 weeks notice and cut from 84kg to 76.5 kg to replace Michael Townsley due to injury. Steve did not have to take the fight with Simon but he did. He does not know how lucky he is Michael was not fit..lol...then he challenges Joe Frey LMFAO...he needs to grow up, along with people making stupid comments about size difference. Bad loser simple as.

IFS.NI · 19-01-2011 9:42am

I would just like to say at the time the only person who complained was steven which he has now since apologised for.

Mike townsely had a grade 3 sprain a couple of weeks out from the fight, I scoured the country looking for a replacement and could not get anyone.

The only person who said they would do it if I was stuck was Simon who has only been training intermitantly for around 6mths. Steven has alot more experience than him.

I told Shane who is Stevens coach about Michaels ankle and that the only other guy available was Simon who would try and make 77kg, Shane said that was fine as Steven was finding it hard to cut weight.

Now may I also add Shane and all the other Oakleaf guys are all cool and are not complaining, they are on our side backing what we are saying - the only person at the time complaining was Steven which I simply put down to the inexerience.

Not only that but Steven is a very capable fighter and was holding his own until he tool and few knees and seemed to lose heart.

I am not angry with him, it's just himself and his te he has let
down. I hope he can learn from this and continue to mature as a fighter.

I have had emails from 3-4 of the hea Oakleaf guys apologising and steven himself apologising, as far as I am concerned it's all cool.

Video footage again is available of the weigh ins with the same format as all the other weigh ins

thanks

I had a perfect view and it was Pauric who looked to touch gloves and as he had his hand out he was moving fast towards Niall, I was 99% sure he was going for the dirty tactic, and I think Niall knew this which is why he shot for the takedown right away.

Its Me, Niall Morgan; and in all seriousness I didnt think pauric or his cornermen did anything unsportsmanlike, i tapped, he celebrated; who wouldnt? and when i was on the stretcher he came over and said good fight, and the touching gloves wasn't an excuse to shoot, pauric tapped the glove lightly and then we both reacted quickly, so seriously ive no ill feeling about it and i plan to head up to Oakleaf when im better and get a roll in, if theyll have me

If it wasnt for the doctors at Clan Wars making sure the fighter was ok I dread to think what would of happened to Stephen who later found out he has nemonia. Hopefully he gets out of hospital soon so he can come back and fight at clan wars :-)

Clan Wars!!
