Muay Thai Challenge 2 "The Battle"

Schaumburg, Illinois

This show was a Rosales Promotion and definitely a good show to have been a part of. Not only were the fights sanctioned by the UWMTA, but also the President Kru Vut was there himself. GriffonRawl fighters who competed include Ivan Erceg, Ryan Conway, Mike Russo, Aaron Veverka, and Jason Dent. Here are the results of our team’s fights:Ivan Erceg vs. Stanley Rousonelos II (Winner Stanley Rousonelos by Split Decision)Aaron Veverka vs. Glen Young (Winner Glen Young by Decision)Ryan Conway vs. James Hill (Winner James Hill by Decision)Mike Russo vs. Al Rojas (Winner Al Rojas by Decision)Jason Dent vs. Ben Yelle (Winner Ben Yelle by Decision)It's too bad the whole team lost at this show but everybody did perform well, all of our fights were wars and nobody got walked over. Also on a positive note everybody came back healthy and without any injuries. Do to our performance our Team has been invited back to compete in their next show in January. (We are looking forward to it and will return with a Vengeance!) A special Thank you is in store for William Dent (Father of Jason) for traveling with the team and being a corner man for all of the fighters. Also Brett Wessler and his buddy Mark from Chicago for helping the team at the fights, it's always nice to have support. We will have videotape of these fights shortly and plan on studying them in class, I think everybody will be impressed with these fights I know I was. Written by:Jason Dent
