Friendly Evil Overcame Naughty Nick Jr.

 at Tuesday 31st December, 2002 by pitypart
As feared by several Naughty Nick Jr. (14-1-0) fans the power of Friendly Evil (19-5-1) was too much for him to handle. It was a close fight in the opening rounds but Friendly Evil slowly got the upper hand as Naughty Nick Jr. started to gasp a bit for breath. The fight was decided for good in round 11 where Friendly Evil were staggered by an uppercut from Naughty Nick Jr. but later forced Naughty Nick Jr. to take a count following a big blow to the head. This allowed Friendly Evil to fight very defensively in the last round and cruise to the well-earned unanimous decision.

Lightweight Blowout Almost Sold Out!

 at Monday 30th December, 2002 by pitypart
With only hours left until the much-anticipated showdown between newly crowned Lightweight Champion Friendly Evil (18-5-1) and the undefeated challenger Naughty Nick Jr. (14-0-0) only few tickets are left. The ticket prices are soaring on the black market, as fight fans are willing to kill their mother (in law) for tickets at ringside. Both fighters are coming off fresh knockout victories but fans are divided in their opinion on who is going to prevail. Friendly Evil has fought better opposition during the course of his career but has also suffered two brutal knockouts in the process. Naughty Nick Jr. is still undefeated but appears to lack some of the power Friendly Evil possesses but makes up for it with great accuracy. A great fight is expected and it's sure to be a sell-out crowd and scores of fans watching from the comfort of their homes.

The Soap Opera Continues

 at Friday 20th December, 2002 by tnt
When Latsas Lars (DRoA) stepped into the ring to fight Shaun Rhen (Kelm) today, it was their 10th (!!!) meeting. The head-to-head was all even before the fight with 3 wins each and 3 ties. The fighters know each other inside out by now and Lars has had the upper-hand in recent encounters as he has gone undefeated through their last 5 bouts.
This time Lars put up a great performance and outclassed Rhen in every possible way. It was truly great stuff from Lars who succeeded with just about everything. He body-punched well to get the endurance advantage, he power-punched accurately to stay in the points and even scored a couple of stuns in the early rounds. With Rhen tired and cut up in the closing stages, Lars scored another stun in the 10th, jabbed home the 11th to secure the points and then dealt with Rhen's desperate allout nicely and won by way of KO in the 12th. If only he could come up with performances like this in his WT fights then he would definately improve his 1-8-3 record when fighting for the belt.

Phrothosloev wins light-heavyweight debut

 at Friday 20th December, 2002 by pitypart
The former super-middleweight prospect Phrothosloev (17-4-0) had a somewhat successfull debut at light-heavyweight with a late 12th round knockout of journeyman Gais Rockar (23-15-3). Gais Rockar was ahead on points when Phrothosloev landed a crunching left haymaker with little time left before the final bell that sent Gais Rockar down and out and made the points obsolete. A win is a win but fans started speculating if Gais Rockar could have gotten away with the victory had he taken a different approach to the final rounds.

Another former super-middleweight Don Rosa (17-3-1) destroyed Henri Charriere (20-7-0) in four rounds and is now ranked #1 and looks set for a title fight next week.

Mad Olle Malm and Frankie From Chicago draws!

 at Friday 20th December, 2002 by pitypart
Two of Scandinavia's light-heavyweight prospects faced off as the undefeated Frankie From Chicago (8-0-1) took on Mad Olle Malm (9-1-1). It proved to be a close fight that went back and forth without any of the fighters being able to get a real edge. Frankie From Chicago seemed to tire a little faster but Mad Olle Malm wasn't unmarked either. In the end the fight was called a majority draw with Judge Roy Bean calling it for Mad Olle Malm by a point. Frankie From Chicago remains undefeated but couldn't have complained too much had he lost this fight.

Sten "Stolslaengaren" Storamda was seriously overmatched, as The Hun was both taller and heavier. Fred "the Hun" Gunn easily crushed Sten "Stolslaengaren" Storamda and scored the knockout in round 7. With the win Fred "the Hun" Gunn edges into top 5 and looks set for a title fight inside the next few weeks.

Bengan the Bull knocked out!

 at Thursday 19th December, 2002 by pitypart
The formerly undefeated super-middleweight star Bengan the Bull (13-1-0) suffered his first loss as the pure power of the hard-hitting veteran Magnus "Mangel" Larsson (22-8-1) proved too much for Bengan the Bull over the course of the fight. Bengan the Bull were on the canvas in round 11 but got back up and tried to jab his way to a decision in the last round - but the veteran Magnus "Mangel" Larsson was too smart to let him get away with it and with only 30 seconds left of the fight Magnus "Mangel" Larsson landed a vicious right bomb that sent Bengan the Bull down and out.

 at Wednesday 18th December, 2002 by pitypart
The Scandinavian Christmas spirit was dented today as the police apprehended Moraliska Dubier following an assault at a local Santa. The motive isn't clear yet but rumour has it that the reason for Moraliska Dubier’s attack was that the Santa refused to give him some candy. Moraliska Dubier is reported to have pushed little kids out of the way to get first in line to talk to Santa and to have become quite agitated as a few of their parents started to complain. Moraliska Dubier was later released but is likely to face charges for Assault on the Christmas spirit. Santa is also believed to sue Moraliska Dubier for a new beard as his current one got ruined in the incident.

Mixing up powerful counterpunching with aggressive jabbing tnt-Robber of Life kept the fight close but were starting to tire from the relentless power of the veteran Just me and my sawed off shotgun. Just as it seemed as the decision was a shoe-in for Just me and my sawed off shotgun, tnt-Robber of Life connected with a big straight and Just me and my sawed off was down and out! The crowd cheered wildly as a tired tnt-Robber of Life was announced the winner and broke into the top 5 in super-featherweight!

Flasher Goes Sissy

 at Monday 16th December, 2002 by tnt
Scandinavia is not famous for its flashers and after BARF was founded they are rarely seen anymore. However, Until you sleep (No Leaf Clover) is an exception and he has flashed his way all the way to 3rd in super-bantams. He had problems once he got in to the top10 but has won his last 5 fights and needs only one more win to be eligible for a WT fight. Todays fight against Dick the Flick FitzWilliam (Beethoven Boxers) turned out a little different than usual. FitzWilliam was very cautious from the start and Sleep surprised him by slapping sissy-style. FitzWilliam looked chocked and didn't know how to react. Sleep kept his head cool and continued to jab his way to a unanimous decision which was the first in his career.

It's ZOO Easy

 at Monday 16th December, 2002 by tnt
For you Aggerud ZOO won his 11th WT and 5th straight fight today. His opponent, A Dead Horse (3CK), just couldn't provide the quality to threat ZOO. ZOO looked as solid as ever and danced with accurate power-punching to control both points and endurance. He made it look easy and Horse only started winning rounds in the closing stages but it was a case of a little too little a little too late. Next week could see a rematch and I'm sure ZOO would be more than happy with that.

Lucky Fluke Luke closing on title!

 at Sunday 15th December, 2002 by pitypart
Super-flyweight hotshot Lucky Fluke Luke (10-0-0) chalked up his 10th win in as many fights and put himself firmly into contention for the title. Old-timer Top "Spy" Cat (26-19-0) posed little threat to Lucky Fluke Luke who easily disposed of him in four rounds. With no apparent threat around Lucky Fluke Luke looks set to fight for the title in a few weeks time. Possible opponents could be the feather fisted Silverryggen (12-1-1) or the veteran Automated Experiment (20-15-1)

Per Kristian Foss Marches On

 at Sunday 15th December, 2002 by pitypart
The powerful junior-flyweight prospect Per Kristian Foss (6-0-0) broke another undefeated record as Labban "The Lion" Andersson (5-1-1) was beaten by unanimous decision. The Lion looked scared early on and allowed Per Kristian Foss to build up a substantial lead before he started to fight back. Just as the fight started to get close in the end Labban "The Lion" Andersson backed off and allowed Per Kristian Foss to take the last round and the decision. With a more aggressive approach to the last round at least a draw would have been well within reach for Labban "The Lion" Andersson.

Lindberg Defends Title Succesfully

 at Sunday 15th December, 2002 by tnt
With Anna Lindberg winning her first WT last week against Anti Pro (Gold Gloves) it was time for a rematch today. It turned out to be a similar fight where Lindberg had the edge on endurance and gradually took over the points as the fight went on. Round 9 and 10 saw both fighters jab for points but both times Lindberg showed better accuracy and the two-point lead was hers. Anti Pro came out throwing big punches in an attempt to get a KO or at least a knockdown. Lindberg had enough defense to stay untroubled and was throwing some mighty hard body-punches that had Anti Pro both stunned and knocked down before leaving him exhausted after the 12th. A great fight by Lindberg who now has 6 straight wins.

Imp Race Continues - Threesome in the Lead!

 at Friday 13th December, 2002 by parre
Today was friday, and friday is as you all know Imp-day! It's also Friday the 13th, so that added extra excitement to the imps fighting today. Pym pym pimpernell (2-1-0) came to the ring dressed in a hawaii hula-hula skirt. Now that WAS scary, but he did get a comfortable decision win over A Blimp Improvising an Imp Impersonation (Rotmo, 1-2-0).

Next week might see a rematch between Aggerud pIMP (DRoA) and Impish Shrimp (SMH) who both got easy wins against doubtful opposition. Both are now at 2-0-1, the draw coming from their first match.

tnt-Mr. Simple Dimple Pimple (2-1-0) won in a very exciting match against over Are you implying, or just lying (Vinterviken, 1-2-0). Both fighters fought with low agg and high power early on, with lots of rounds being draws on the unofficial scorecard.

After ten rounds the score was even according to the commentators, and none of the fighters looked too tired. Ding! Round 11. Implying looks to go inside for the stun, while Dimple dances around the ring and pokes at Implying like a true sissy. The round ends with Dimple landing a lot of weak punches and clearly winning the round, giving him a 107-106 lead heading into the final round.

Now to the money round. Despite not even stunning his opponent last round, Implying continued with his inside charge, while Dimple also continued with his sissy poking. Winning rounds 11 and 12 proved to be enough, as Dimple took the unanimous decision (116-114 on two cards, 116-115 on one). A very exciting fight none the less.

Now to the top three. Impetigo utdelaren (3-0-0, Ogrus) totally humiliated his bum opponent hanski janski. Janski was knocked down a total of six times, and stunned three! All three judges had the fight scored 120-102 in Impetigos favour.

Despite Anfield being arrested in Copenhagen for urinating in public, his fighter Simple Imperialist Gimp (3-0-0) beat Impersonal (Borge, 2-1-0) in a decision win. Both fighters used a lot of power early on, but Gimp was more accurate which forced Impersonal to jab with high agg to get rounds, which left him with an endurance disadvantage. Going into round 10 the score was tied, but Impersonal was tired as a prostitute after a nightshift, while Gimp was standing erect with no trainer to wipe him down on his stool.

Gimp used his endurance advantage in rounds 10 and 11, where he jabbed with high agg to get a 2 point lead on score going into the last round. Impersonal tried to trap Gimp against the ropes, but Gimp was prepared and stunned Impersonal, who also got a point deducted for headbutting Gimp. In the end, a comfortable decision for Gimp, who seemed to be the better fit fighter in this fight. Gimp has now defeated three imps in his first three fights.

The third leader is Imp With a Limp (3-0-0, Nicks Naughty Ninjas). He won his fight today against Impregnated Pigeon (Parre, 2-1-0) after a round 9 KO. Pigeon took round one, and Limp tried to surprise him with big punches but ended up getting knocked down. Pigeon then started jabbing, losing the endurance battle badly and using far too high agg. In rounds 7 and 8 Limp allouted, and got a stun in both. In round 9 Pigeon finally went down after getting hit with a combination. A very poorly managed fight from Parre (Pigeon claimed he didn't give him any orders for the fight!), but still a good win by Triple N, who is in the tied lead of the Imp Race.

Who will fight who, who will prevail and who will grovel like a little Spartacus-wannabe slave? Stay tuned for more Imp action, coming live from your own funeral, next week!

Fred "the Hun" Gunn too much for Phrothosloev

 at Thursday 12th December, 2002 by pitypart
The rematch didn't turn out quite the way Phrothosloev (16-4-0) had hoped as Fred "the Hun" Gunn (17-3-0) turned out to be far too slick for him to handle. The Hun quickly got the edge with accurate punching but suddenly Phrothosloev connected with some good shots and Fred "the Hun" Gunn was staggered and the crowd was roaring! But fought through it and suddenly it was Phrothosloev who was staggering around as Fred "the Hun" Gunn seemed to be able to do whatever he wanted to. To top that Phrothosloev was swelling and bleeding so much that it became unclear which of the two fighters it was that were fighting in red trunks. In the break before round 12 The Doctor stopped the fight because of a gash below Phrothosloev's left eye. An exhausted Phrothosloev didn't seem too unhappy with that decision as he had already lost a lopsided decision and was just facing one more round of relentless beating. Following the fight Phrothosloev acknowledged that Fred "the Hun" Gunn was superior in skill at this time. He also announced his decision to step up a weight class and compete at light heavyweight in the future.

 at Thursday 12th December, 2002 by pitypart
Bjarne Baghold (4-0-0) defeated Sout will rise again (13-68-1) by decision. The outcome was never in any real jeopardy but one should think that against a bum with 68 losses, 17 of these by way of knockout, a decision is too little to ask for.

---
tnt-Rock `n` Roll Star (10-0-0) didn't take long to take advantage of Per Vinen's (31-39-0) notoriously bad conditioning and make it a short night. One round was all Per Vinen could stand before he was gasping for air and was easily knocked out by tnt-Rock `n` Roll Star.

Otto Jespersen's Career in Disarray?

 at Tuesday 10th December, 2002 by pitypart
Once undefeated and winning fight after fight by way of knockout Otto Jespersen (12-2-1) was one of the best super-lightweights Scandinavia had to offer, but recent weeks has been disastrous for Otto Jespersen as he battles to break into the top 10. A majority decision loss to Friendly Evil (17-4-1) put an end to the undefeated record and the following week gave Otto Jespersen a draw with Dave Hanson (15-4-2) in another close fight. This week Otto Jespersen slumped to his second loss as the fight against om du var Jack the Ripper (21-8-3) came to a premature halt as Otto Jespersen was disqualified for a head butt.

 at Monday 9th December, 2002 by pitypart
Hard-hitting super-featherweight Bam Bam Martin (19-5-0) earned his second title with a vicious knockout of Ignorant Genious (15-3-2). Ignorant Genious looked scared of Bam Bam Martin and barely fought back at all, he just stood there and let Bam Bam Martin come at him. Being helplessly behind halfway through the fight Ignorant Genious finally decided it was time to at least try something to win the fight but was promptly put to sleep with a tremendous left combination from Bam Bam Martin. Despite having faced little opposition Bam Bam Martin looked exhausted and while Ignorant Genious wasn't in tip-top shape himself he definitely looked better than Bam Bam Martin in the end.

According to Clubber Lang Returns' management this job is not going to interfere with his boxing career, which will go on as usual.

Per Kristian Foss To Make It Big?

 at Sunday 1st December, 2002 by pitypart
Following four straight wins, all by way of brutal knockout Per Kristian Foss (4-0-0) is being heralded as one of the hottest Norwegian prospects in the junior-flyweight scene. The fact that most of his past opponents, apart from his most recent one, has been of above average quality adds substance to the fact. Next week he could well end up finding himself in the ring with his Swedish counterpart, the also undefeated Labban "The Lion" Andersson (4-0-1). The fight would be a clash of stiles with Per Kristian Foss powerful style usually fighting from inside against Labban "The Lion" Andersson's much more defensive and jab-oriented stile.

Lgd the Unclean vs. Gre-No-Li IV?

 at Sunday 1st December, 2002 by pitypart
Both Lgd the Unclean (15-1-2) and Gre-No-Li (15-3-2) earned wins in their last outings making the fourth match between the two an immediate possibility. Gre-No-Li had a short nights work as he beat Jerry "Alice" Cantrell (21-12-2) by DQ after only 37 seconds of boxing. But before he got to that point he had to beat the count following a big right cross from Jerry "Alice" Cantrell and following the headbutt that followed Gre-No-Li quickly jumped the chance and got Jerry "Alice" Cantrell disqualified. Lgd the Unclean had to work harder against Glark Cable (14-4-1) before the 12th round knockout was a reality following a very hard-fought fight. The fans are now anxiously awaiting the result of the negotiation for a fourth showdown between Lgd the Unclean and Gre-No-Li.

Frank the Pug Finally Conquers Title!

 at Sunday 1st December, 2002 by pitypart
After two clear-cut losses Frank the Pug (15-2-0) won the straw-weight title in the third attempt following a split decision win over Please Be Gentle (16-3-0). It was a close fight throughout and a draw would probably have been the fairest ending to it. Please Be Gentle seemed to be one step ahead most of the time but allowed Frank the Pug to catch up late in the fight as Please Be Gentle started to counterpunch while Frank the Pug jabbed wildly to close the score. The judges awarded Frank the Pug for his relentless jabbing and a split decision is somewhat understandable, but Judge Judy's score of 116-113 was way off the mark. The question now is: Will Frank the Pug take on the more experienced Mama Roach (18-3-0) who has spend the last three weeks beating up on Americans or will he take on an opponent closer to his own level of experience?

Sean O`Quinlan In Over His Head?

 at Saturday 30th November, 2002 by pitypart
Super-Middleweight tough guy Sean O`Quinlan (13-3-1) makes another attempt at breaking into the pack of prospects as he takes on the undefeated Bengan the Bull (11-0-0). O`Quinlan has been in trouble in high profile fights in the past with knockout losses to Don Rosa (14-3-1) and the hard-hitting Phrothosloev (15-3-0) as well as a disqualification against Gunnar Gren 020 (17-5-2) in his most recent fight. Bengan the Bull on the other hand has been rock steady from the start of his career but has build his record against a lot less talented fighters than Sean O`Quinlan with the knockout of the then undefeated Fran Rosa (10-1-0) as the highlight so far. Is O`Quinlan ready to finally prevail against tough opposition or has his losses taken away his confidence? And is Bengan the Bull capable of handling a fighter seasoned in the heat of battle like Sean O`Quinlan?

tnt-Rock `n` Roll Star Barely Beat Bum!

 at Thursday 28th November, 2002 by pitypart
tnt-Rock `n` Roll Star (8-0-0) turned a looming loss into a glorious knockout against journeyman Daniel Hartstaal (31-36-1). Daniel Hartstaal had the decision locked up and was just about to escape with a sensational win as tnt-Rock `n` Roll Star threw everything he had at Daniel Hartstaal and got the knockout with less than a minute less of the fight. Hardly the impressive display his management had hoped for and surely not a thing that will scare future opponents.

Fred "the Hun" Gunn Loses!

 at Thursday 28th November, 2002 by pitypart
Fred "the Hun" Gunn (15-3-0) suffered his first loss by way of knockout as Kalsongbrunar (14-1-0) used a power punch for the first time in his career - and to good effect. Kalsongbrunar took advantage of his height to use accurate counterpunching to keep Fred "the Hun" Gunn at bay as he came inside. It soon became evident that The Hun couldn't get the edge endurance he was looking for and to top that he was having trouble keeping up with Kalsongbrunar's accurate punching. In the end Fred "the Hun" Gunn took a chance and came out like a raging bull but got caught by a telling straight from Kalsongbrunar who earned his first knockout victory.

Friendly Evil Interrupts Robbery!

 at Wednesday 27th November, 2002 by pitypart
Yesterday Friendly Evil (16-3-1) interrupted a robbery attempt at a local 7-Eleven. He had arrived shortly before the robbers and was trying to decide if he should buy Coca Cola or Pepsi. Then suddenly the door was kicked open and three hooded men stormed in and demanded that the shopkeeper handed over the money. Friendly Evil reacted quickly and easily took out the three men with two well thrown bottles of Pepsi and a vicious right hook. The police was called and the three men arrested. Friendly Evil was duly thanked and got his Coca Cola at half price as a reward.

Frank the Pug signs to fight Please Be Gentle again!

 at Wednesday 27th November, 2002 by pitypart
Despite receiving a good beating by the hands of Please Be Gentle (16-2-0) it has been announced that Frank the Pug (14-2-0) has signed for a rematch. Frank the Pug went undefeated to the top end of the rankings but has had troubles taking the final step and claim the title. First he was outboxed by Pit Lane (17-0-2) and last week it was Please Be Gently who stood in the way. Please Be Gentle will no doubt be anxious to defend his title and is the favourite at the bookmakers. The only two blemishes on Please Be Gentle's record has come after viciously hard fought fights and Frank the Pug seems to be unable to deliver a fight like that as his conditioning has let him down in the past.

Lgd the Unclean draws with Gre-No-Li!

 at Sunday 24th November, 2002 by pitypart
In a twelve round grudge match where both fighters gave it there all and didn't pull any punches Lgd the Unclean (14-1-2) and Gre-No-Li (14-3-2) fought to a draw for the second time in their third meeting. Both fighters relied heavily on their punching power and looked as determined to hurt the opponent as they were at winning. Gre-No-Li was in a slight lead most of the fight but Lgd the Unclean didn't let him pull too far away. In the final round Gre-No-Li thought he had the decision secured and back-pedalled to not take too many chances. Lgd the Unclean was fully aware of his situation and decided to go for broke and fight like a raging bull! Lgd the Uncleans assault shook Gre-No-Li before a right combination sent Gre-No-Li down for an eight count. Lgd the Unclean was unable to get the knockout in the end as Gre-No-Li recovered and caught Lgd the Unclean with a hook that took the edge out of him for the remainder of the fight. The figth went to the judges and was ruled a majority draw with Lao Mang Chen having Lgd the Unclean as a close winner. Not an unfair result but hardly the ending any of the fighters had hoped for.

Please Be Gentle drops Frank the Pug!

 at Sunday 24th November, 2002 by pitypart
Frank the Pug (14-2-0) suffered his second loss in a row, and in his career, as he was knocked out by Please Be Gentle (16-2-0) in the second round. Frank the Pug won the early rounds but took a beating doing so and resting in round 5 didn't do much to help him. Please Be Gentle fought patiently and relentlessly throughout the fight and didn't seem to worry too much about the score. Frank the Pug came out like a raging bull in round 7 hoping to catch Please Be Gentle slapping to catch up but that was not how it went. Please Be Gentle was rocked by an uppercut early in the round but recovered to finish Frank the Pug off with a bone crunching right blow to the temple that sent Frank the Pug motionless to the canvas. Please Be Gentle was crowned the new Strawweight champion to the cheers from the crowd while Frank the Pug was still receiving treatment. Frank the Pug was later taken to the hospital for observation.

Gre-No-Li vetos Judge Roy Bean!

 at Thursday 21st November, 2002 by pitypart
The tension before the fight between Gre-No-Li and Lgd the Unclean increased today as Gre-No-Li and his manager announced the decision to veto Judge Roy Bean as a ringside judge in the upcoming title fight. "Judge Roy Bean has been out to get me every time I've fought. No matter what I do he always favours my opponent. Let's get a fair decision this time where it is the skill that matters and not what manager has the best connections." Gre-No-Li is quoted to say. At this time the WeBL Commission has not decided if it will dismiss Judge Roy Bean or not.

Fred "the Hun" Gunn wins close fight

 at Thursday 21st November, 2002 by pitypart
It was bad luck for dansar aldrig nykter - lever i ett konst (17-7-2) as Fred "the Hun" Gunn (15-2-0) was crowned the winner of what turned out to be a very close fight. Both fighters came out throwing powerful punches and dansar aldrig nykter staggered The Hun with a powerful uppercut. Having earned some respect from The Hun dansar aldrig nykter turned to defensive jabbing and started building up a lead while The Hun kept the power on and tried to hang on. The Hun was trailing as the fight went into the final stages and The Hun decided it was time to give his all if he wanted to stay in the fight. He came out like a raging bull and punched dansar aldrig nykter around the ring for a couple of rounds to close the gap. The fight then ended up in an aggressive jabbing session to finish off a very close fight. The judges ruled it a 2-0-1 majority decision in favour of Fred 'The Hun' Gunn who didn't look too impressive in this fight and a draw would not have been unfair.

Lgd the Unclean to fight Gre-No-Li again!

 at Wednesday 20th November, 2002 by pitypart
It wasn't all too surprising that Lgd the Unclean (14-1-1) announced that he had signed a title fight, the real surprise was that it was in flyweight against Gre-No-Li (14-3-1). Lgd the Unclean started his career as a bantam weight but has lost weight during his career and has been campaigning as a super-flyweight for a good deal of his career with two fights at flyweight - one of those being his only loss in the title fight with Take-it-out-on-someone-ELSE (23-13-0). Gre-No-Li is more of a natural flyweight and has fought around that weight most of his career weight a recent stint as a super-flyweight.

To make things even more interesting the two fighters has met twice before! The first time ended in a controversial draw that many fans still think Gre-No-Li won but Lgd the Unclean earned a draw with a powerful comeback in the closing rounds of the fight. In the second fight Gre-No-Li was ahead on most scorecards when The Doctor wouldn't allow Gre-No-Li to continue because of a gash over his right eye - with only one round to go!

Gre-No-Li will no doubt be out for revenge and looks to have a decent grasp at Lgd the Unclean if he can beat the Ostersund crowd in their home turf. And then there's still the referee, the doctor and the judges to get past..

otep wins again!

 at Wednesday 20th November, 2002 by pitypart
The hard-hitting talent of Alex English (24-8-0) was not enough to hand otep a second defeat for the record. For otep (18-1-0) all that was needed was a solid defence and a stern look as otep just kept away in the beginning and let Alex English have his fun. otep was shaken early in round three and four but was never in serious danger and needed just to watch as the referee finally disqualified Alex English in round four for his continuant fouling. It probable wouldn't have changed the outcome much apart from saving Alex English a good beating and the humiliation of leaving the ring flat on his back (again). otep chalks up another win for the record and is currently one of the hottest upcoming prospects in the world.

Pit Lane too much for Frank the Pug

 at Sunday 17th November, 2002 by pitypart
The challenger Frank the Pug (14-1-0) was slightly under the weight limit at the weigh-in while
Pit Lane (16-0-2) made weight in the second attempt. The fight proved to be as close and hard-fought as expected with two undefeated fighters giving it there all. The champion Pit Lane was one step ahead in most of the fight and managed to stay in better shape than the challenger. In the end it all came down to the last round and Pit Lane easily out jabbed Frank the Pug who was obviously tired at this point. Pit Lane was awarded with a unanimous decision and he is now off to seek out his chance on a worldwide scale.

Lgd the Unclean closing on title

 at Sunday 17th November, 2002 by pitypart
Lgd the Unclean (14-1-1) took another step towards his second title fight as he clinically destroyed the hard-hitting veteran Small Change (29-26-0). Careful defensive but powerful boxing kept Small Change's punching power at bay and Lgd the Unclean never looked like losing the fight. Lgd the Unclean had Small Change shaken in round 7 but we had to wait till the end of round 11 to get the stoppage, as the Doctor wouldn't let Small Change continue because of a serious gash below his left eye. The crowd wasn't too pleased with that as they were just waiting for the brutal knockout to happen as it has so often before by the hands of Lgd the Unclean.

Next up for Lgd the Unclean could be a title fight against Gre-No-Li (14-3-1) who handed Rotmo`s "Peekaboo Memorial" Fighter (12-1-3) his first loss in a lopsided decision that could easily have ended in a brutal knockout.

Fred 'the Hun' Gunn knocks out Phrothosloev

 at Thursday 14th November, 2002 by pitypart
In the main event of the fightnight in Stockholm, Sweden, Fred "the Hun" Gunn (14-2-0) knocked out Phrothosloev (13-3-0) in his return to the Super-Middleweight division. Phrothosloev were clearly having trouble getting past The Huns accurate punches and soon started to alternate between jabbing and power punching to keep up. The Hun got into a good rythm and was one step ahead all through the fight. In round 9 Phrothosloev lost a close round even though he was twice as busy as The Hun and in the corner before round 10 he was told by his manager that it was time to take a chance and go for broke. Phrothosloev had The Hun on the floor but he beat the count and got back up to knock out Phrothosloev with a crushing hook. Fred "the Hun" Gunn continues his knockout streak in his toughest test so far in a beautiful display of skill and look comfortable back at Super-Middleweight.

 at Wednesday 13th November, 2002 by pitypart
Last week saw otep (17-1-0) get cheated out of a clear decision, but this time there was no doubt. otep took on Roy Morwell (21-8-0) and it was total otep-show just like always. otep won the rounds with more accurate punching and Morwell soon started to gasp for breath as oteps power punching took it's toll. With a comfortable lead in had otep took it easy towards the end end backed off instead of getting the knockout that was looming in the horizon as Roy Morwell came inside in the end in a desperate attempt to get the all-out that was the only thing that could win him the fight. otep cruises to a rock solid decision and looks more determined and dangerous than ever.

Bookmakers: Junior-Flyweight title fight to end as draw!

 at Tuesday 12th November, 2002 by pitypart
In the upcoming Junior-Flyweight title fight, billed as "Fight of the Flashers" tnt-Local Hero (17-4-0) takes on Starcraft Drone 8 (19-5-0) for the title vacated by tnt-Uninvited (15-1-0) who has left Scandinavia to quest for bigger titles. The two flasher has had a total of five attempts at the title so far, but none successful and based on this the bookmakers has determined that a draw is the most likely outcome. The judges seem in for an easy night since none of the fighters have lasted to the final bell so far. Starcraft Drone 8 seems to be the most durable of the two as he has lasted to the fifth round in the past where tnt-Local Hero has yet to get through the second round. With this in mind the draw the bookmakers predict will likely have to happen when both fighters knock each other out simultaneously, but no matter what happens the audience seems to be in for a short fight.

Lgd the Unclean ready for title fight?

 at Sunday 10th November, 2002 by pitypart
Lgd the Unclean (13-1-1) bounced back from last week’s shock loss to Take-it-out-on-someone-ELSE (22-13-0) with a lopsided decision over Boss A Nova (22-15-3) in what turned out to be quite a slapping contest. Lgd the Unclean strayed from his regular fight plan and out slapped Boss A Nova who did nothing to keep up and Lgd the Unclean could cruise to his first win by decision.

Next up for Lgd the Unclean could be another go at the title, now held by Rollin`... (14-1-1) who
crushed Take-it-out-on-someone-ELSE in four rounds.

Undefeated fighters for the Strawweight title?

 at Sunday 10th November, 2002 by pitypart
Next week could see two undefeated fighters going at it for the Straw weight title as current champion Pit Lane (15-0-2) could be defending against the tough Frank the Pug (14-0-0). Both fighters are coming off knockout wins as both defeated hard-hitting journeymen. Pit Lane is on a hot streak and is out to add the ninth straight knockout to his resume but it will not be easy against Frank the Pug who has yet to know how it feels to leave the ring and not having won the fight. Pit Lane has fought two draws in his career, both against fighters who isn't exactly renowned for punching power, but against Frank the Pug it's likely that focus will be more on hitting hard than looking good which seems to favour both fighters better than a slapping contest.

A great win for anybody and surely a nice fight to have on the resume when negotiating the salary. Also fighting will be the undefeated tnt-Rock `n` Roll Star (5-0-0) who takes on the hard-hitting Henrik"Breaking bones"Bilstrup (6-1-0).

The Second Scandinavian Smack King makes second attempt at title!

 at Wednesday 6th November, 2002 by pitypart
The Second Scandinavian Smack King (19-6-0) recently changed management and now celebrates with another attempt at the Super-Featherweight title. His opponent is the tough I`ve Got 2 Legs (14-1-2) whose only blemish on the record was a loss by decision to fellow Scandinavian star and current lightweight champion tnt-Frankie Lee (17-2-1). Smack King obviously likes his new surroundings and is taking a much more vocal approach compared to the vow of silence he appeared to be under with his former management. I`ve Got 2 Legs has picked up the glove and both fighters are going at it in the pressroom. This caused a bit of unrest among animal activists recently as they stormed in to protest against I`ve Got 2 Legs calling Smack King a chimp since they found it very demeaning for the chimps to be associated with people like Smack King. It later turned out that I`ve Got 2 Legs had in fact called Smack King a chump and the demonstrating activist quietly snuck out the back entrance. Peace didn't last long though as the animal activist was replaced by a group from Blind Fight Fans who didn't like I've Got 2 Legs comment about Smack King getting advice from his brother being "like a blind leading a blind". A spokesman stated: "With today’s modern utilities a blind is fully capable of leading a blind and comments like these only highlight the ignorance of the seeing people."

otep robbed of perfect record!

 at Wednesday 6th November, 2002 by pitypart
Scandinavian superstar otep (now 16-1-0) fought Kwame Milan (24-7-1) in the contender debut and was robbed of a clear decision as the judges called the fight a split decision in favor of Kwame Milan. The crowd had witnessed a fight where otep was in control all the time, keeping the score close while punishing Kwame Milan before taking home the decision with jabbing in the last few rounds - or so they thought! The crowd was stunned as the referee lifted Kwame Milans arm in victory and oteps manager was screaming in disbelief. A tough welcome to contenders for otep but it will undoubtedly be Kwame Milans career who took the biggest hit after the beating he got from otep.

Rotmo`s "Peekaboo Memorial" Fighter escape with lucky draw!

 at Sunday 3rd November, 2002 by pitypart
Rotmo`s "Peekaboo Memorial" Fighter (11-0-3) were lucky to get away with a draw that saved his undefeated record against the tough Flat the Unclean (12-1-1). Peekaboo Memorial took the lead early but during the fight Flat the Uncleans powerful bodywork took it's toll. Flat the Unclean had Peekaboo Memorial staggered in the closing rounds but was unable to score the knockout. As the final bell rang an exhausted Peekaboo Memorial could wipe the blood off his face and hope for a little luck with the judges in this very close fight. Flat the Unclean on the other hand was visibly unhappy with not getting the knockout and complained that he should have gone in harder than he was. In the end the fight was called a majority draw as Judge Judy had Rotmo`s "Peekaboo Memorial" Fighter as the winner. Peekaboo Memorial remains undefeated but will no doubt remember this fight for the rest of the week every time he moves.

Undefeated Lgd the Unclean loses!

 at Sunday 3rd November, 2002 by pitypart
Lgd the Unclean (now 12-1-1) was undefeated going into the title fight against the hard-hitting Take-it-out-on-someone-ELSE (22-12-0). With nothing but knockout victories for both fighters it was bound to become explosive, but Lgd the Unclean was the favourite at the bookmakers against a fight that has lost as many fights by knockout as Lgd the Unclean had won himself. Take-it-out-on-someone-ELSE came out fighting like a raging bull but was staggered by Lgd the Unclean with his very first punch. That didn’t' stop Take-it-out-on-someone-ELSE though as he quickly recovered and not long after he caught Lgd the Unclean with a devastating right hook that sent him hurtling to the canvas. Lgd the Unclean was unable to beat the count in time, but after the fight he looked in much better shape than Take-it-out-on-someone-ELSE who was exhausted, swelling and bleeding as if he had been through 12 rounds of boxing. Rumour has it that there are currently negotiations of a rematch next week.

Frank the Pug decisions Golligan O`Karel!

 at Sunday 3rd November, 2002 by pitypart
The undefeated strawweight prospect Frank the Pug (13-0-0) won a clear unanimous decision against Golligan O`Karel (16-5-1). Frank the Pug took the first two rounds by a clear margin and then alternated between working O`Karels body and winning rounds. Golligan O`Karel put more focus on power and during the course of the fight it was clear that it was taking it's tool on Frank the Pug. Unfortunately for O`Karel it was not enough to allow O`Karel to turn the fight in the end with aggressive jabbing as Frank the Pug was still way more accurate with his punches - as he had been throughout the fight. A nice name on Frank the Pugs record while Golligan O`Karel went straight to a meeting with his manager to discuss if he had any future at Anfield Road or it was time to move on to pastures new.

Starcraft Drone 8: Cursed to never win titles?

 at Sunday 3rd November, 2002 by pitypart
For the third time in as many title fights Starcraft Drone 8 (18-5-0) left the ring on a stretcher. This time it was the defending champion Tick Tock BOOM (16-1-0) who delivered the decisive blows and earned the right to start his quest for the world title. Starcraft Drone 8 started out strong and had a very defensively fighting Tick Tock BOOM shaken in the first rounds but was unable to get the knockout. After four rounds it was over as Starcraft Drone 8 went for broke but was put sound asleep by a very aware Tick Tock BOOM. After the fight Starcraft Drone 8 hinted that B.A.R.F might have had something to do with it but that has yet to be confirmed.

tnt-Rock `n` Roll Star (4-0-0) decisioned Sout will rise again (13-65-1). The decision was never in jeopardy, but the inability to score a knockout against an opponent of this calibre with a very questionable chin isn't too comforting.

Pan the Unclean (5-1-0) scored his fifth knockout in a row against the weak chinned bum MR.Loverman (14-27-1). Pan worked steadily towards the knockout and looks set to fight bigger names.
---
Dave "Daddy Quickie" Hanvey (6-0-0) kept going with a knockout victory over the hard-hitting journeyman Mucho Beaver (24-32-0). Daddy Quickie was shaken in the early part of the fight but held on to earn the knockout. Not a too impressive display considering his opponent was 10 pounds lighter at the weigh-in.

Probable Monkey dating Anna Kournikova?

 at Wednesday 30th October, 2002 by pitypart
Following his knockout victory over The closer you are to Ceasar (12-4-0), Probable Monkey (11-1-0) reportedly decided to celebrate it with a night out with Anna Kournikova. The couple was spotted in several of the bars in Stockholm during the night and has been reported to be walking hand in hand. Later in the night the couple vanished and as of yet it is still unknown where they spent the night - and with whom.

Joseph "MudSlinger Gift 2001" Marconi (24-15-2) had also decided to celebrate his knockout victory over Bantam-Bjorn (32-27-2) with a night out and was later spotted leaving a bar with several ashtrays and a pool ball. HRulez later called a press conference where Joseph Marconi was pushed to the microphone where he stated: "I didnt steal anything! It belonged to me!" before he rushed off the stage again, leaving no time for questions.

Strawweight talent face tough test

 at Wednesday 30th October, 2002 by pitypart
The hard-hitting straw weight talent, the undefeated Frank the Pug (12-0-0), is facing his toughest test to far as he takes on Golligan O`Karel (16-4-1). O`Karel is known to have a short fuse when it comes to managers and has broken his contract several times to get new management if the fights didn't go as planned. Both fighters like to rely on their power and win the majority of the fights by way of knockout so an exciting fight should be in the making. Last week Frank the Pugs personal assistant was arrested for drug possession and it is unknown how that is going to affect Frank the Pugs preparation for the fight.

otep unstoppable

 at Wednesday 30th October, 2002 by pitypart
There was no slowing down for otep (16-0-0) who defeated Laddermouth (14-1-2) by unanimous decision and is now out to take on the world. Laddermouth was undefeated going into the fight and put up a good fight but was trailing start to end. otep pulled away by landing more punches and as soon as Laddermouth caught up otep just took another round. oteps power took its toll on Laddermouth leaving otep in better shape in the end allowing otep to jab the decision home without too much trouble. Laddermouth is likely to fight tnt-Frankie Lee (16-2-1), who lost to otep last week, for the lightweight title vacated by otep. tnt-Frankie Lee bounced back from his loss to otep by handing I`ve Got 2 Legs (13-1-2) his first loss ever. tnt-Frankie Lee won the fight as he caught I`ve Got 2 Legs with a hook that had him stumbling around in the last round of a close fight.

 at Sunday 27th October, 2002 by pitypart
Junior-Flyweight champion Coinneach O`Celsus (16-2-1) dropped the undefeated tnt-Uninvited (13-1-0) in round 12 to defend his title. The champion took control of the fight early by jabbing from the clinch before he made a switch to throwing big punches and cought tnt-Uninvited off guard as he was jabbing away from outside. tnt-Uninvited got back in the fight a few rounds later as he had Coinneach O`Celsus in serious trouble but O`Celsus beat the count but it took him a couple of rounds to fully recover and tnt-Uninvited took the chance and closed the gap. Coinneach O`Celsus had tnt-Uninvited in trouble in round 11 but tnt-Uninvited managed to stay on his feet. Not wanting to take his chances with the judges in a close fight like this O`Celsus took care of business himself with a powerful right combination that sent tnt-Uninvited down and out.

Once again it was a tough fight where Tick Tock BOOM took the early lead as Puksu "Guvnor" Gazza were finding it hard to get through Tick Tock's power punches. It was obvious that Tick Tock BOOM had done his work in the gym as he was i better condition this time and took the punches better. There was no sign of last week’s swellings around Tick Tock's eyes and with full visibility he easily caught Puksu "Guvnor" Gazza with a vicious right to put an end to the fight when Puksu "Guvnor" Gazza went inside in the hunt for the knockout.

The fight between Fred "the Hun" Gunn (11-2-0) and Gnrl Grant (21-18-2) turned out to be exactly as the records would suggest.

Man busted on Frank the Pug's promotional bus!

 at Wednesday 23rd October, 2002 by pitypart
A man travelling aboard Frank the Pug's promotional bus was charged with drug possession after a concert in West Palm Beach. The man, who identified himself as the boxer’s personal assistant, was arrested and released Tuesday from local jail after posting $16,000 bond. Frank the Pug and members of his crew weren't on the bus, police said. The man and the bus driver were the only people aboard the vehicle, which was headed to Sweden for Frank the Pug's upcoming fight. Frank the Pug, who headlined a fight night in Kongsberg, Norway last Sunday, and his crew were flying to Sweden, police said. Authorities were tipped by a driver who said drugs were aboard the bus. Police stopped the bus at the Swedish border and did a top-to-bottom search. No police officials were available to elaborate on the driver's tip. The man was carrying cocaine, and a drug-sniffing dog found a package of rolling papers, a marijuana joint and $4,818 in cash in a silver metal briefcase, according to the police report.

Following a wet night in the city Dwyer O`Mulcahy was arrested by the police. He was accused of assault on a bartender who made the mistake of greeting him by saying "Is that a swelling around your eyes or are you just happy to see me?" Dwyer O`Mulcahy obviously didn't find that funny at all and jumped the bar and charged the bartender. After a short brawl Dwyer O`Mulcahy was pulled away by Fred "the Hun" Gunn who happened to be at the same bar at the time. A few minutes later the police arrived and took Dwyer O`Mulcahy into custody

The opponent in oteps defence of the title could be the also undefeated Laddermouth (14-0-2).

Super-Fly Flop

 at Monday 21st October, 2002 by pitypart
What was supposed to be the clash between two of Scandinavia’s hottest Super-Flyweight prospects turned out to be an extremely boring display of lack of imagination. None of the fighters are renowned for their punching power, but this was just sad. Silverryggen (now 5-0-1) and Francis the Frantic (4-1-0) came, saw and slapped. None of the fighters seemed interested in fighting at all and just stood there pushing each other lightly. One man in the arena was happy though: The local popcorn vendor! During this bout just about every single spectator went out to buy popcorn and cokes just waiting for the bout to end so they could get on to some real fighting. Luckily for the crowd the headlining Lgd the Unclean (11-0-1) knew how to do it as he added his 11th win by way of knockout to his record after a 9 round destruction of Putte "Power" Penning (38-33-0)

Puksu 'Guvnor' Gazza drops Tick Tock BOOM!

 at Sunday 20th October, 2002 by pitypart
The seasoned Puksu "Guvnor" Gazza proved to be too much for Tick Tock BOOM who lost for the first time in 15 fights. Tick Tock BOOM was dropped in round 11 after a very tough fight that left none of the fighters unmarked. BOOM was disadvantaged by a limited visibility due to serious swellings around both eyes which could be the explanation why he apparently didn't see Puksu "Guvnor" Gazza's punches and was decked three times before he was counted out. Tick Tock BOOM showed great heart and could be back for a rematch next week.

Dead by Dawn is a seasoned fighter who has been ranked in the cruiserweight top 10 for three months but has had a tough time in his attempt to make the final step to contenders. Instead he now hopes his experience will be enough to make up for the loss of weight.

Since the Accident injured on jump cushion!

 at Friday 18th October, 2002 by pitypart
Earlier this week Since the Accident made a promotional appearance at a local theme park. On his way through the theme park he took his time posing with the children and trying out a couple of the merry-go-rounds. Everything was going well until Since the Accident decided he wanted to try out the jump cushion as well. That proved to be a very bad choice as Since the Accident suddenly found himself flying in mid-air as all the children jumped on the cushion to join him. Unluckily Since the Accident landed on a couple of the children and managed to sprain his left arm as well as getting a bite mark on his right thigh as one of the children didn't think he got up fast enough. So for there has been no reports as to what influence this will have on Since the Accidents upcoming fight.

Undefeated "VvFC drops his pants and" takes title!

 at Friday 18th October, 2002 by pitypart
The undefeated "VvFC drops his pants and" extended his unbeaten record to 17 straight wins by defeating Gunnar Gren 013 for the Light-Heavyweight title. VvFC took the first three rounds by aggressive jabbing before suddenly assaulting Gunnar Gren with everything he's got in round 4 and was rewarded with a clean knockout. After the fight VvFC expressed a wish to fight some serious opposition but at the current time there doesn't seem to be anybody able to match his experience in Light-Heavyweight. If he is serious in his statement and can shed the weight, then a move back down to Super-Middleweight would likely be a bigger challenge than defending his title at Light-Heavyweight.

A Modest Proposal (5-1-0) lost his undefeated record as the experienced journeyman Pillu (22-21-0) won a clear unanimous decision. Proposal tried to take advantage of his power but worked in vain as it had no effect on Pillu who could easily pick up the rounds he needed instead.

Dave "Daddy Quickie" Hanvey (4-0-0) broke the undefeated record of J Berrill (3-1-0) in a close majority decision. The fight showed both fighters relying mainly on jabs with a few rounds with power thrown in but never really got the crowd going. Another tough test could be up next for Daddy Quickie as Frank "Moose" Goheen (4-0-0) also earned his fourth straight win by knocking out journeyman Clarence Harris (4-4-0)
---
Bengan the Bull (5-0-0) took another unanimous decision win but still remains somewhat untested as he lacks a big name opponent on the record.
---
The hard-hitting Chandler Matrix (6-0-0) earned another knockout despite weighing in underweight yet again. The question is what will happen when there is more quality in the opposing corner - will Matrix' power still be enough of will he give up too much weight?
---
Karlsongbrunar (9-1-0) won his ninth consecutive unanimous decision by defeating Saknade Anna (9-2-0). Karlsongbrunar took the rounds he needed by aggressive jabbing and looked in control throughout the fight. Saknade Anna now seems to have dropped from hot pospect to a more questionable position.

A possible opponent for Karlsongbrunar could be tnt-State Trooper (9-1-0) who easily jabbed his way to a unanimous decision
---
Much hyped Slap Peekaboo Hard -Tribute- (10-2-0) somewhat surprisingly lost by KO to Popeye Onda (14-3-0). Onda controlled the fight with powerful counterpunching and effectively punished Slap Peekaboo as he came inside throwing big punches.

Phrothosloev KOs Sean O`Quinlan!

 at Thursday 17th October, 2002 by pitypart
With only seconds to go of the fourth round Phrothosloev knocked Sean O`Quinlan clean out. O`Quinlan had started the fight best winning rounds with accurate punching while he was making good use of the ring. Phrothosloev fought from inside and connected with too few punches to be given a round. On top of that the powerful boxing displayed by both boxers seemed to take the bigger toll on Phrothosloev. Things were looking good for O`Quinlan until Phrothosloev suddenly connected with a crushing blow that sent O`Quinlan to the ground and the crowd could celebrate a tired Phrothosloev as the winner.

Fred 'the Hun' Gunn defeats Ari 'Tower' Taipola

 at Thursday 17th October, 2002 by pitypart
It soon became apparant that Ari "Tower" Taipola wasn't much of a match for Fred "the Hun" Gunn. The Huns powerful work from inside quickly began to show on Tower and the advantage Tower build up early on by landing more punches was of little worth as he never really looked like making it through all 12 rounds as long as The Hun kept the pressure on. In round 10 The Hun ended the show with a brutal knockout and Ari "Tower" Taipola could be rushed to the hospital for a post fight check-up and a couple of days recovery. The Hun looks to be ready for bigger things but is fighting in a weight class where there is only little quality opposition in the top 50. If The Hun could put on the weight a fight with Phrothosloev could be an option but if he stays at middleweight he'll likely have to fight bums for a while.

Super-Fly Talent Showdown!

 at Wednesday 16th October, 2002 by pitypart
Two undefeated records are on the line this Sunday as Francis the Frantic (4-0-0) has agreed to fight Silverryggen (4-0-1). Both fighters are heralded as some of the hottest prospects the super-flyweight division has to offer but both remain somewhat untested. Francis the Frantic has by far the biggest name on his record with a win over The Mighty, also known as Bob (2-1-1) where Silverryggens biggest achievement is a draw against Gunnar Gren 069. The fight is scheduled to be the undercard of a fightnight in Ostersund, Sweden with Lgd the Unclean (10-0-1) headlining against Putte "Power" Penning (38-32-0) where yet another win by knockout for Lgd the Unclean could put him up as a serious contender for the title. At the same time in Fredericia, Denmark MrSchedulerGiveMeMytho6 (16-5-0) will fight tnt-The Nomad (13-1-1) for the super-flyweight title. On the undercard here the hot prospects tnt-Prodigal Son (6-0-1) and This time they are (5-0-0) will appear, looking to maintain their undefeated records.

The Second Scandinavian Smack King signs for title fight!

 at Wednesday 16th October, 2002 by pitypart
Relatively unnoticed and far less vocal than expected The Second Scandinavian Smack King (17-5-0) has made his way up through the ranks and has just signed to fight the experienced Minee Isur Tamm Dapain (16-6-0) for the Super-Featherweight title. For Minee it will be the fifth week in a row he is making a title fight appearance with only one win so far.

Lightweight top: Hell!

 at Tuesday 15th October, 2002 by pitypart
In the division sporting the highest number of undefeated fighters the top of the division leaves little for the imagination. Currently topped by the undefeated otep (14-0-0) who looks set to fight another hot prospect in tnt-Frankie Lee (15-1-1) who drew in this week’s title fight against Take FP-discussion SOMEWHERE ELSE (27-13-5). But the talent doesn't stop there. In third spot Laddermouth (13-0-2) is lurking and coming off a dominant destruction of Joseph "MudSlinger Gift 2001" Marconi (22-15-2) Laddermouth could prove to be a tough challenger for either otep or tnt-Frankie Lee. In sixth spot the undefeated I`ve Got 2 Legs (12-0-2) is making his way towards the top and is evidence of the steady flow of talent. While these fighters doesn't rely on their punching power as much as accuracy there are several seasoned fighters hanging around making an ample supply of hard-hitting opponents. Fighters like Bantam-Bjorn (32-25-2), Frankie Brimsek (22-11-0), Jan Suchy (21-11-3) and Joseph "MudSlinger Gift 2001" Marconi are all experienced fighters tested against the very best lightweight has to offer and could cause a nasty surprise if they are taken lightly.

Awards for September handed out

 at Monday 14th October, 2002 by pitypart
At a grand ceremony at Vatnajokull, Iceland the awards for achievements in September was handed out earlier tonight. The happening was graced by the presence of several of Scandinavia’s celebrities as Martin Magic flew in by private jet to take part in the event. Also present was otep of lightweight fame as well as a somewhat bruised Starcraft Drone 8. Even former world champion Abrianna LaBianca showed up on the red carpet and was escorted by recent world title challenger Hagbard Handfaste, and they seemed to get along quite well.

Head of Committee Shortie gave a nice speech on how to achieve world peace before it was time for the award ceremony. Sadly there were some mechanical problems during his speech so his message never got through. The awards where handed out by current Scandinavian Super-flyweight champion Jules Rimet who was brought in at the last minute to replace tnt-Fashion Victim who had to cancel because of a "very important job".

Ignorance Is Bliss suffers first loss in title fight!

 at Monday 14th October, 2002 by pitypart
The experienced Dominic the Unclean proved too much for defending champion Ignorance Is Bliss. Bliss suffered his first loss after a somewhat controversial majority decision. The champion came out taking the early rounds by more accurate punches and build up a substantial lead before Dominic the Unclean decided to step it up a bit and start closing the gap. Bliss allowed Dominic to do so and kept on working Dominic’s body. With an even fight going into the last round Dominic decided to try to catch the champ off guard by going inside while Bliss tried to jab his way to the decision. Bliss was stunned by a wild uppercut from Dominic which was enough to win him the round - and the fight as two of the judges awarded it to Dominic the Unclean with the third calling it a draw. The decision was met with boos from Ignorance Is Bliss's fans as they felt Bliss wasn't stunned in the final round but merely making fun of Dominic.

Starcraft Drone 8 crushed again!

 at Monday 14th October, 2002 by pitypart
The rematch between Starcraft Drone 8 and pym namnihopblandarnamn punch didn't turn out the way Starcraft Drone 8 had hoped. Drone 8 threw everything he had at pym straight off the bell but was soon forced back into the ropes and ultimately knocked out cold in less than a minute. A fighter that went into the first title fights with a streak of 12 straight knockouts now look a lot less scary after two brutal destructions by the hand of pym namnihopblandarnamn punch. pym namnihopblandarnamn punch on the other hand looks very comfortable under his new management and could be one to watch for the future if he can keep things going the way they are.

Phrothosloev takes on Sean O`Quinlan!

 at Monday 14th October, 2002 by pitypart
After several weeks of talking the two managers finally came to an agreement and the fight between Phrothosloev and Sean O`Quinlan is a reality. Both fighters have been heralded as great prospects but remain somewhat untested at this point. Phrothosloev has fought the hardest opposition early in his career before he went into a slump and he suffered a couple of surprising losses. He later avenged one of his losses but has been fighting mainly journeymen since then. Sean O`Quinlan lacks big names on his record as he lost to Don Rosa by late KO and apart from that he has been fighting opponents of more limited ability. This fight will be the defining moment for the two fighters and will bring the winner back among the true prospects of the division with the loser left out in the dark.

The Cruiserweight Hotspot!

 at Friday 11th October, 2002 by pitypart
The newly released cruiserweight ranking showcases a hotspot of talent around rank 119. A handful of undefeated fighters, all with three victories to their names, have been ranked next to each other. To make things even more interesting all five is hailing from different gyms! There is little doubt that this is one of the most densely talent packed spots in any of the weight divisions and could provide for some great matchups in the immediate future. Harbinger the Unclean with three straight wins by knockout and F Roche who is coming off a unanimous decision win against Soth the Unclean are the ones with the most impressive wins on their records but could be challenged by the more untested Graham the Great and Pete Borgman. However, the pack is diminished a little as Olle "kalven" Knyt appears to have gone back into retirement after a one fight comeback and apparently doesn't feel ready for a challenge like this just yet.

Bonk connected to gaming syndicate?

 at Friday 11th October, 2002 by pitypart
Following a week where fighters from the Bonk gym has been claiming all titles above super-welterweight a rumour is spreading that Bonk is connected to a Norwegian gaming syndicate consisting mainly of whale fishers. The Whale fishers have little to do with todays strict limits on the number of whales to be fished so instead they have ventured into internet gambling. In an effort to make as much profit as possible they are rumoured to have paid off judges and opponent of fighters from the Bonk gym to ensure that all titles would go to the Bonk gym. Bonk, knowing this would happen because of his informers inside the organization, has put a large bet on his own fighters and now looks set to collect a substantial sum of money if Mikael X can complete the set-up by defeating Gomer Simpson tomorrow.

Starcraft Drone 8 looking for revenge!

 at Thursday 10th October, 2002 by pitypart
After being crushed by pym namnihopblandarnamn punch (15-1-0) in less than 5 rounds in last weeks Straw weight titlefight it didn't take long for Starcraft Drone 8 (16-3-0) to sign for the rematch. No long negotiations over fees and salaries - just putting the pen on the dotted line was all that mattered. And then from one dot to the next to signify a signature. The question now is: Will B.A.R.F be in pym namnihopblandarnamn punch's corner again this time? pym namnihopblandarnamn punch himself claims that B.A.R.F isn't needed in this fight as he knows all he needs to know to defeat Drone 8 once more. Starcraft Drone 8 has spent the waiting time trying to raise support to rid the WeBL World of B.A.R.F but so far his efforts has been futile. Some bystanders even claims Drone 8 lost the argument according to Godwin's Law following his complaint to Human Rights where he compared B.A.R.F to Nazis.

 at Thursday 10th October, 2002 by pitypart
The Hun had little trouble disposing of Peter " The Pussy cat" Downley in four rounds. Downley weighed in short of the weight limit making his attempt at knocking out The Hun that much harder. The Hun started out cautiously knowing Downley would come out hunting for the knockout and easily fended off the first attack. In round 4 Downley went for broke and threw everything he had against The Hun but ended up flat on his back.

tnt-Tribute Slapper on drugs?

 at Tuesday 8th October, 2002 by pitypart
Following tnt-Tribute Slappers announcement to drop down to super-featherweight a rumour has started that he has been on drugs and other illegal substances ever since the start of his career and that this loss of weight is just the tip of the iceberg. A career that started off with two wins by way of brutal KO followed by a unanimous decision against The brother tnt consolidation fighter. What makes this fight vital to the speculations is that Tribute Slapper kept a high level of aggression throughout the fight and in several of the rounds he didn't even seem to notice that his opponent was coming at him allout with full power. Tribute Slapper just kept doing what he had started and just ate up all the punches that consolidation fighter could throw his way. This info was taken to leading medical experts that all said that drugs could have been the cause for his ability to take a punch like he did and still keep on throwing the high amount of punches he did.

Dear Diary

 at Monday 7th October, 2002 by pitypart
It seems like I'll have to fight another nobody this week. Anfield obviously does not trust my chin to be good enough as he found a hard-hitting bum and set me up with him, I guess I'll just have to prove that this is ridiculous and I'm capable of much more than fighting bums. Give me a quality opponent that actually wants to fight instead of this silly sissy thing most of them has going on (including my manager!). Let's see some blood and power punches and entertain the fans.

Things have gotten really annoying at the gym lately. Anfield Road has been out in the street offering contracts to everybody and their sister so now it's crowded with nobodies and wannabies. Let me tell you about a couple of the most annoying ones. First there is Cap`n Tony Yeomans, an American guy who recently left Morongo Valley to fight for Anfield Road. One can only wonder why as anywhere would be better than here. But I guess he just wanted to be around a celebrity like me. Then there is Chairman Duck 7, he is really a royal pain in the ass. He tries to control everything around here. He even threatens to gag anybody who doesn't agree! He probably learned that from Javier Jiggler. Javier thinks he is really sexy and about to become a porn star. For the sake of the future of organized porn I really hope he never make it. It would kill all sales at once.

BARF strikes again!

 at Monday 7th October, 2002 by pitypart
Once again the Brotherhood Against Real Flashers, also known as BARF, has struck and a fighter on a 12 straight KO win streak has fallen victim! In this weeks straw weight title fight pym namnihopblandarnamn punch crushed Starcraft Drone 8 and the referee saved the crying Starcraft Drone 8 shortly into round 5. After the fight pym admitted that BARF was involved and thanked them for showing him the way. It's not the first time BARF has brutally ended win streak of fighters entering a title fight with 12 straight KO wins as about two months ago three other fighters left the ring as losers after having signed a titlefight on a 12 KO win streak. Several boxers are starting to fear the curse of 12 straight KOs before a title fight..

Dead by Dawn gets revenge!

 at Saturday 5th October, 2002 by pitypart
Following the loss last week Dead by Dawn went for the immediate rematch against the now reigning cruiserweight champion Nelson Lambone. The second fight started out much like the first one with Lambone being more accurate with his counterpunching and not having trouble winning the rounds he wanted. Being far behind on points and the end closing in Dawn decided to go for broke and started to fight from the inside using every dirty trick in the book - and got rewarded for doing so! First by having Lambone shaken in round 9 followed up by a knockdown early in round 10 before he finally put an end to things in round 11 where a big left to the head sent Lambone flying back, down and out after a full ten count. Dead by Dawn raised his hands in victory and screamed "I told you so!" as his fans were roaring. After the fight a disappointed Lambone stated that he felt he got some bad advice from his manager that ultimately cost him the fight.

otep takes on Joseph "MudSlinger Gift 2001" Marconi!

 at Saturday 5th October, 2002 by pitypart
After being heralded as the most talented fighter in Scandinavia by a recent study otep has decided to step up the opposition a bit and is taking on Joseph "MudSlinger Gift 2001" Marconi. All of oteps previous opponents has been of questionable ability, maybe with the exception of the KO win over Arthur Farrell early in the career - a knockout Farrell never fully recovered from. Joseph Marconi is a seasoned veteran who has fought at the very top of Scandinavia for some time now, taking on some of the best fighters around and never being afraid of a challenge. Will Marconis experience be too much for otep or will otep continue to march on? Both fighters have been taking swipes at each other in the press and are roaring to go. Remember to tune in on this fight on tuesday!

---
Berra Stenkross (7-1-0) retired from the spot after having knocked out journeyman Wanina "Palatset" Stuferind (35-38-4) by late knockout. The press is speculating in the fact that a fight against Sean O`Quinlan looked possible was what triggered the decision.

Fred "the Hun" Gunn back on track

 at Thursday 3rd October, 2002 by pitypart
As expected The Hun defeated journeyman Lars Staalgaard without much trouble. Once again it was the powerful bodywork early in the fight that earned The Hun the advantage and allowed him to jab his way to the decision in the end. The Hun had Lard Staalgaard shaken in round 8 but instead of following through and get the KO that was just around the corner he selected to start jabbing aggressively to earn a unanimous decision.

Dear Diary

 at Monday 30th September, 2002 by pitypart
I just hate slapping and slappers. I know that I did a good deal of that in my last fight - and it showed on the result. I've got the punching power to stop a moose on the loose and still my dumbass manager demands that I slap more than a teenage girl when one of the Unclean tries to take her on a date. As it stand I'm kinda happy that Arild Rotmo won the fight by use of power (disregarding that pathetic slapping he did afterwards) because then my manager might learn to let me do what I do best: Punch so hard that my opponents end up more blue than a smurf! Just look at the damn fight! The first rounds I put him in a world of hurt - sure, he won the rounds but it hurt! Then what happens? Anfield tells me to start slapping and play Rotmos game, and what happens? I lose. What a pathetic manager is he. Also, when I joined I was told that Anfield Road was a world-class gym. Oh wow! You know what? Apart from some bare knuckle bum then I'm the most experienced active fighter around here.. While I am close to world class I did think that when he was mentioned as "world class" then they were talking about the state before I joined. But I guess not.

Next up is a tune up fight against some bum and then I'll be back in the game. No worries here.

Lightweights most talented

 at Saturday 28th September, 2002 by pitypart
A recent study shows that Lightweights are currently housing the most talented fighters Scandinavia has to offer. The basis for that statement being that there is currently a staggering amount of nine undefeated fighters at lightweight where most other weight classes are having trouble displaying even a handful and some even has as little as one undefeated fighter with more than one fight. Lightweight is tied with Heavyweights both showcasing nine undefeated fighters but the undefeated lightweights has a higher number of fights among them than the heavies where little under half the undefeated fighters has only fought two fights. Going by this survey otep would be the most talented fighter in Scandinavia with eleven straight wins at lightweight though oteps opponents has been of lacking standard and otep has never faced a real test.

Dave 'Daddy Quickie' Hanvey causing confusion

 at Friday 27th September, 2002 by pitypart
At a recent press conference Dave "Daddy Quickie" Hanvey of Anfield Road caused some confusion with his statement to the press. It was not so much what he said, but more the question of what he was actually talking about. It went like this: "All I ever wanted to be was pornstar. And to make matters worse, my manager is a total bum." Ok, so far so good, nothing unexpected so far but now it gets tricky: "He gave me the crappiest instructions, lucky thing I`m good enough to still be successful." This is what divided the press, is he talking about his career as a boxer or is he still talking about he wish for an alternative career? The journalists at the press conference were unable to come to a conclusion on this matter and Daddy Quickie was quickly swept away by his manager.

Mikkel "The Hitman" Kesller (4-0-0) added his fourth KO to his record in as many fights by defeating journeyman Lucky Ingo (22-29-0). Who is next? And how will he fare against somebody above the journeyman level?
---
Sean O`Quinlan (6-1-1) outboxes Rapture (18-17-0) over 12 rounds to win a lopsided decision. O`Quinlan looks to have recovered nicely from the knockout loss to Don Rosa a few weeks ago. And he better be when he could be fighting Phrothosloev next week.
---
Phrothosloev (7-2-0) continues his fight back to dignity by decisioning Kris Grudge (9-7-0). Phrothosloev looked secure throughout the fight as he had Kris Grudge shaken in many of the round but seemed to have a harder time winning the rounds on points when his power was not enough.
---
Kalsongbrunar (6-1-0) added his sixth consecutive win as he topled Darling, Please Don`t Live In The Past (6-2-1). Darling was unable to get anything out of his powerpunching and Kalsongbrunar had little trouble securing the decision.

---
Saknade Anna (8-0-0) remained undefeated as journeyman Daniel Hartstaal (30-28-1) was defeated by unanimous decision. The question now is: Can the managers agree on the much anticipated Saknada Anna vs. Slap Peekaboo Hard -Tribute- fight or will the fans be kept waiting for yet another week?

- Arild Rotmo - defeats The Hun

 at Thursday 26th September, 2002 by pitypart
Arild Rotmo won a close unanimous decision and got a win against his first "name" opponent extending his record to 7-1-0. Rotmo took the lead from the start with accurate counterpunching against Fred 'The Hun' Gunn who fought from inside and didn't seem to worry about the score too much in the beginning. As the fight went on both fighters abandoned power and started to jab for the decision with a high output. Rotmo staggered The Hun in round 11 with a clean hook by powerful counterpunching but was unable to put him down and instead he reverted to aggressive jabbing and secured the decision by being more accurate than The Hun in the last round. Fred 'The Hun' Gunn drops to 7-2-0 after suffering his first loss by decision with his other loss being the controversial loss to Slap Peekaboo Hard -Tribute- by DQ.

Dear Diary

 at Monday 23rd September, 2002 by pitypart
It seems like Anfield Road and his matchmaker has finally started to acknowledge my skills and let me fight the opponents my talents demand. As expected I disposed of that tnt-State Trooper and crushed his undefeated record without much trouble apart from that one round where he actually displayed some decent boxing. But naturally one round of boxing could not cut it against The Hun! Next up is some - Arild Rotmo - guy who appears to be even more of a sissy than State Trooper. Rotmo doesn't seem too scary either as his record is build on bums and journeymen. His only somewhat decent opponent was Dink "Dinkerton" Carroll in the debut and he lost that fight by crushing KO. Oh, did I just call Dinkerton a decent opponent? Well, he probably wasn't as the only fight he ever managed to win was the one against Rotmo, but then again, he did fight some tough opponents even if he quit boxing after only three fights. Still, Arild Rotmo will look nice on my resume when I set out for greater things and leave him behind in the gutter.

Super-Fly: Fashion in French!

 at Friday 20th September, 2002 by pitypart
With less than 48 hours to his Super-Flyweight titlefight against Jules Rimet, billed as 'Fashion in French' tnt-Fashion Victim is rumoured to have left Scandinavia to shoot a small part in upcoming movie as well as making promotional appearances around the world. His manager was unavailable for questioning but his secretary promised that tnt-Fashion Victim would be back by jet in time for the fight. tnt-Fashion Victim has had a bumpy ride in titelfights in the past with only one win in 5 attempts. Is he too preoccupied with other things to focus properly on his fights? For Jules Rimet it's the first titlefight and it's not going to be easy going up against one who is seasoned against the best opponents in Scandinavia. Boxing fans are also raising the questions with regard to Jules Rimets chin as both of his two losses, both by KO, came against the journeyman Teofil "The Cat" Hope who now holds a record of 22-23-2 (8/6). If an average fighter who isn't exactly known for his punching power can floor Jules Rimets, then what will happen against an experienced and skilled opponent?

Edward '- The Riddler -' Nygma Unstoppable!

 at Friday 20th September, 2002 by pitypart
The Riddler retained his title by knocking out Nelson Lambone bringing his record up to 21-3-1 (11/1), or 7-0 (5/0) since his change of management. The challenger Nelson Lambone came out with a high punch rate and quickly build up a lead on score but was caught by surprise as The Riddler came charging like a raging bull in round 6. Lambone fended off the first assault with a mighty blow to the temple and forced The Riddler to take a count to seven. This only made The Riddler even more determined and a devastating straight from The Riddler send Lambone stumbling to the canvas and the fight was over.

After the fight Nelson Lambone stated that he felt he underestimated the power of The Riddler and thought that he would have been able to withstand an assult like that. The loss was the third for Lambone in as many titlefight and he expressed a bit of doubt about his own ability to ever win the elusive title.

Fred 'the Hun' Gunn defeats tnt-State Trooper!

at Thursday 19th September, 2002 by pitypart
Earlier today The Hun put the first loss on tnt-State Troopers record after a close majority decision. The Hun took the early rounds with aggressive powerpunching from inside while the taller tnt-State Trooper was backpedalling and relying on his jab from outside. tnt-State Trooper started being more busy as the fight went on to slowly turn the score to his favour. None of the fighters were showing serious signs of fatigue but The Hun seemed to be in the best condition. The Hun responded to tnt-State Troopers more aggressive jabbing with some serious jabbing of his own. This kept the score close until the final rounds. In the last couple of rounds tnt-State Trooper switched to powerful counterpunching hoping to catch The Hun off his guard after both fighters had been abandoning defence for aggression. This proved to be a sane choice as Trooper caught The Hun with an uppercut that sent him staggering to the ropes, but Trooper was unable to follow up and finish him off. With the score being tied going into the final round Trooper decided to go for power once again, but this time The Hun managed to stay out of trouble and convincingly won the final round. As the fight went to the judges Fred 'The Hun' Gunn was awarded the majority decision with 2 judges to 0 with 1 calling the fight a draw.

Hands of Vecna to lose license?

 at Monday 16th September, 2002 by pitypart
After being given the Summer Smack Award the manager of Hands of Vecna seems to have lost his mind. It's a well known fact that the NewsFlash Awards is to be carried with great pride but proclaiming oneself to be God because of getting one is stretching it a bit as Valhalla would be a bit crowded with all those self-proclaimed Gods. The WeBL Commission is considering revoking Hands of Vecnas license since having a self-proclaimed God playing is bad publicity whether people believe it to be true or not. The believers will complain that God is using his divine powers to cheat and cause their fighters to lose while the non-believers will complain about blasphemy. It's a no win situation. Word has it that the Award Committee is also discussing whether quoting the bible and history books counts as “smack” and makes the poster eligible for the Smack Award or if it would be more suiting with a law suit for breach of copyright.

Dear Diary

 at Monday 16th September, 2002 by pitypart
Seems like I finally got a decent opponent. No more beating up bums and no-hopers. Time for a real challenge. The first real challenge came when Anfield Road showed up and said I needed to shed some weight as he had gotten me a deal in middleweight. So I had to do a little work to get in better shape than ever before, but I guess that now it's done it's not a bad thing. Next up is tnt-State Trooper of [tnt]-the newbie troop. He seems to have grown fatter during his career so he doesn't look too scary. He seems to have a fetish for back-pedalling and jabbing just like anybody else from that gym but from hearing some of the ramblings of his manager he is probably considered a hardcore slugger in the gym since he has won a fight by KO. Scary dude! Don Rosa obviously also wanted to fight me but what would the challenge in that be? I'll crush tnt-State Trooper and then we'll see what else Anfield has in store for me.

Super-Middleweight Prospect News Week 145

 at Friday 13th September, 2002 by pitypart
KO artist Phrothosloev got his career back on the right track with a destruction over 7 rounds of the journeyman Rasbutin who is known to have bad conditioning and a questionable chin. Phrothosloev could end up fighting stiff opposition next week as a fight with Sean O`Quinlan could be in the making. Top prospect Slap Peekaboo Hard -Tribute- stumbled to a majority decision loss to Gunnar Gren 020 as his attempts to wear down the sissy proved futile. Next week could put Slap Peekaboo Hard -Tribute- up against another sissy, the highest ranked undefeated fighter: Saknade Anna of Gym Stallion. Saknade Anna has 5 lopsided wins by decision and one majority decision over Don Rosa of Rotmo`s Gym Of Legends. Don Rosas only other loss was a majority loss to... none other than Slap Peekaboo Hard -Tribute-! Don Rosa is one of the fighters who have been named as possible opponents for The Pet, Fred 'The Hun' Gunn. Another name that has been mentioned is Anna Bella Garcia, a fighter with only 1 loss in 7 fights. Anna Bella Garcias only loss came by DQ against Don Rosa. No matter how it all matches up it should ensure some interesting fights next week.

Scary or Scared?

 at Tuesday 10th September, 2002 by pitypart
In recent weeks guden hehe of the dojosan gym has been hard running his mouth in the press after having won the first four fights by way of knockout. But despite his opponent being quite dodgy and of questionable ability guden hehe still waits till after the fights before he starts sending out his press releases. Is he as good as he is trying to sound or is it all just a smoke cover of his lack of skill and low self esteem when he doesn't dare to talk smack to his opponent before the fight? And will he ever fight a decent opponent or will he forever be beating up bums?

Dear Diary

 at Monday 9th September, 2002 by pitypart
So I once again totally dominate my opponent and finish him off with a beautiful KO in the last round. I rule. Sure, these guys are nothing but journeymen but it's still good fun to mess around with them without having to worry about winning since the result is pretty much given in advance.

And next week looks to be nothing different as Anfield somehow talked Speedy Gonzalez XI into fighting me again even though I totally destroyed him little under a month ago. The guy obviously has a death wish. Ok, so Speedy is coming off three straight KOs but what makes him think he has a chance against the mighty Fred 'The Hun' Gunn? Even that guy Slap Peekaboo Hard -Tribute- is so afraid of me that he chickened out of our fight after a little friendly head butt. Where's the fighting spirit these days? Oh well, he can't hide forever. I'll get him soon enough.

And that Phrothosloev dude is really crumbling these days. First he loses to a slapper and now he got blasted by some only-barely-above-average hardhitting journeyman. At least his manager has finally realized what skill level he is at and has put him up against a really bad journeyman with a weak chin. Even my kid brother could win that fight.

I'll stop here for now. I'm going to try to get him to put me up against some credible opposition soon. Beating up bums is all fine and dandy but I want a challenge every once in a while too - though I do know it'll be hard to find any opponents that would be a challenge to me..

Super-Middleweight Mayhem

 at Thursday 5th September, 2002 by pitypart
Another lopsided fight ending in a late KO for Fred 'The Hun' Gunn. The Hun was in total control and never looked like losing the fight but just like last week he seemed to have a bit of trouble finishing his opponent off. Even against an exhausted opponent he was unable to do more than stun him so what will happen when the opponent is of a bigger calibre than the most recent ones? You can't keep on beating nobodies forever.

In other Super-Middleweight news Slap Peekaboo Hard -Tribute- added his sixth win to his record as he out punched and out slapped Steel Midnight to win a unanimous decision. Slap Peekaboo Hard focused on power in the beginning before he stepped up the aggression to turn the fight to his favour. So as it stands the grudge fight between Slap Peekaboo Hard -Tribute- and Fred 'The Hun'Gunn is still at least a couple of weeks away. The third fighter in the Super-Middleweight triangle, Phrothosloev stumbled to his second consecutive loss, this time by KO. The fight against Bill "BigBlow" Harris went wrong right from the start as BigBlow punched Phrothosloev around the ring as he pleased in the early rounds. Phrothosloev got back in the fight in round four as a brutal hook floored BigBlow. He then started slapping to even the score and the fight stayed close until round eleven where BigBlow suddenly connected with a left combination and Phrothosloev was down and out. After four wins by way of knockout things has gotten from bad to worse for Phrothosloev and the question is if he still has a chance to revive his career of if this was the end of the career that started so promising.

Naturally I dominated that journeyman the entire fight. He was no match for me at all, and adding that second KO to my record was real nice. It was a decent workout too since I waited till the last possible moment before I punched his lights out. That was quite fun. I could literally see Anfields face get more and more red with anger (The colour fit his shirt I might add) as I just kept on having fun with the guy as he stumbled around the ring instead of getting the KO and call it a night. Maybe that's why he has gotten me a fight with another bum this week. I'm fighting some guy named Gatzi from the Hotten gym. He looks to be really slow and uncoordinated so he shouldn't cause me much trouble. He seems to pack a bit of a punch since he often manages to stun his opponent and win rounds that way and sometimes he is able to wear his opponents down too. But who cares. I've beaten fighters with better records and I will do it again. The only thing that could stop me would be another of those baloney DQs.

That Phrothosloev guy lost last week. I guess he's not as scary as his record made him look. He lost to a sissy and was way too tired in the end to land the power punch that would win him the fight. As he realized he wasn't going to be able to get the KO let alone a stun in the beginning of the fight he was forced to jab like a madman - and wasn't really much good at that. So with another win for both of us we might be able to set up a fight. Then I could teach him how to beat up somebody. I still want that Slap Peekaboo Hard -Tribute guy again though. We've got some unsettled business! He's fighting the sissy that beat Phrothosloev so he might lose too. Then a rematch wouldn't be too far away!

The Hun is back!

 at Thursday 29th August, 2002 by pitypart
Fred 'The Hun' Gunn bounced back from his loss by DQ and won a dominant fight by KO. The Hun won every round up until the KO only seconds before the final bell but despite that he still failed to really impress. He took control from the early rounds with cautious power punching and was never in real danger. But even in a dominant win like this it was obvious that there are still things to work on for The Hun. Even with his opponent being exhausted he seemed incapable of putting him down, let alone ending the fight. The KO didn't come before Paul McCar was just about to fall over himself so Fred 'The Hun' Gunns future opponent is probably not too impressed by his punching power.

Boxing Unions in the making?

 at Monday 26th August, 2002 by pitypart
At a meeting this weekend several professional boxers from various gyms in Scandinavia held a meeting to find out if there was a base for forming a Union for professional Scandinavian boxers. The Scandinavian Boxing Union should help improving the working conditions for the boxers and allow the boxers to form a united front against the managers instead of individual efforts. The biggest complaints were towards long training hours and a bad climate in the gyms. Some of the boxers who recently turned pro also complained about the low pay in the early fights and wanted the more accomplished boxers to share a lump of their much bigger earnings with those just starting out. The solidarity on that point seemed to be pretty limited though. No final solution was reached but it was decided to meet again at a later time to further discuss the situation. For now the representatives from the different gyms is to return home and start to drum up support for standing up against the oppressing managers.

tnt-Fashion Victim: Slugger or Sissy?

 at Monday 26th August, 2002 by pitypart
At the press conference following his title win tnt-Fashion Victim issued a statement that he was the first slugger out of [tnt]-the newbie troop to win a title. He obviously felt the need to went his anger on behalf of the other sluggers in the gym that were tired of being accused of being slappers. Among other things he stated: "tnt is not a sissy gym!".

tnt-Fashion Victim's latest opponent, I was not even near Oklahoma, stepped forward with the CompuBox punch stats from the last fight that documented that in 9 out of the 12 rounds tnt-Fashion Victim had been relying mainly on his jab. He also added: "That`s what you call a slugger tnt?"

The question still remains: Is tnt-Fashion Victim a slugger? And if so, then why is he jabbing like a sissy? And how can [tnt]-the newbie troop not be a sissy gym if even the sluggers are jabbing more than they are using power punches?

Dear Diary

 at Saturday 24th August, 2002 by pitypart
Much has been said and written about my last fight but I think it can be summed up in one word: Disgrace! I was told boxing was a mans sport and that there was no place for sissies. That's obviously not true. First Slap Peekaboo head butts me and I don't care much, it's just the sort of things that happens in the heat of battle. Anyway, he gets away with a warning, but when I happen to land a head butt a little later that sissy has the nerve to protest like a crying baby so the referee feels sorry for him and DQ me! What a piece of baloney! I want a rematch - a REAL fight - to settle the score once and for all instead of this pathetic decision that was probably bought.

First step on the road back will be the experienced Paul McCar. With 25 fights under his belt he is a bit of a journeyman but since all his wins came by way of knockout I'll have to be a little careful though. He'll be no problem though. I know how to take care of myself and I'll cruise to a lopsided decision. I'm not sure if I want to go for the KO since I could use a good workout following the last two short fights.

Btw. that guy Slap Peekaboo Hard -Tribute- is really a chicken I can tell you. First he chicken out of the fight against me this way and then he starts calling out heavyweights to fights he knows will never happen. And then what happens? Does he sign to fight Phrothosloev? Oh no, he digs up some old stiff to fight instead. Where is the heart in boxing these days? Phrothosloev is also fighting a weakling, but at least his opponent has a decent record of four straight wins with his only loss being in his first professional fight.

SPCC fears the future

 at Wednesday 21st August, 2002 by pitypart
The announcement from Hands of Vecna to close shop to go on vacation has raised concern at the Scandinavian Press Conference Center (SPCC). Hands of Vecna has been one of the main sources of income recently with many fighters being actively releasing press releases. "We're obviously sad to hear that he will be away but we will try to cope the best we can without his money", said the SPCC manager. For now the projected result on the next fiscal statement has been lowered to meet the new situation. Sources inside SPCC says that they are hoping for other managers to come forward and take over where Hands of Vecna left off or the SPCC will be forced to rent out rooms to Teletubby Conventions and other dodgy event.

Joseph "MudSlinger Gift 2001" Marconi: Addict or Innocent?

 at Monday 19th August, 2002 by pitypart
Last weeks story of Joseph Marconi being busted with drugs has caused a stir in Scandinavia. The public is divided on what to believe and recent press releases have done little to shed light on the subject. Despite admitting to test positive Joseph Marconi still claims innocence and accuses tnt-Robber of Life for having placed the drugs. tnt-Robber of Life was quick to circulate a press release that denied having anything to do with it and pointed towards Marconis connections to the Mafia.

Despite all this the fight between the two is still on and both fighters will be highly motivated to put up a great performance and settle the score in the ring once and for all. The question is: Who will be the better one to handle the pressure and keep focusing on the fight and not the hype and happenings surrounding it. In the ring it is do or die, there's no second chances and absolutely no mercy.

Dear Diary

 at Monday 19th August, 2002 by pitypart
To be modest: I rule! I must admit it's hard to keep modest when I destroy a guy like I did in my last fight. Sure it was a sorry journeyman, but still it was a brutal KO. I kinda liked that.

Next week seems to be a little harder. The matchmaker has negotiated a fight against Slap Peekaboo Hard -Tribute- from the The gym formerly know as Slap Me Hard. His record is similar to mine but that's about it. Sure, he's named after a WeBL legend but that's just about all the quality there is to him. He only barely squeezed out a win in his last fight after having been floored by that sissy of an opponent and only did so because he got lucky with the judges in that last round. But I've got news for him! I'm managed by Anfield Road so I fear no judges - he's got it all taken care of! And then there is the manager of my opponent: "The gym formerly know as Slap Me Hard".. who does he think he is? Prince? Doesn't matter, Slap Peekaboo Hard -Tribute- will be all purple after the rain of punches I'll ship his way! Sheesh!

I took a look at the rankings the other day and it didn't look too scary. It appears that there isn't too many great fighters in my vincinity. The only guy that looks a bit scary is Phrothosloev. He has won his first three fights by KOs and beating both one of the gorilla guys from the bar as well as my evil cousin (or whatever he is). He is fighting a journeyman next week so that'll probably be his fourth KO. Maybe I can get Anfield to let me fight him next. That should be good. The Mighty (and highly popular I might add) Fred 'the Hun' Gunn against the vicious Phrothosloev. That should be able to sell some tickets. Perhaps even headline a show. I know I'm ready, but it might too much for Phrothosloev..

Joseph "MudSlinger Gift 2001" Marconi accused of drug dealing

 at Thursday 15th August, 2002 by pitypart
At a recent surprise drug raid the police got an unexpected bonus. Along with the usual suspects, that the police knew from last time and the time before that, they also apprehended Scandinavian pro boxer Joseph "MudSlinger Gift 2001" Marconi of HRulez. Back at the station Joseph "MudSlinger Gift 2001" Marconi was questioned about the reason for him being in that location at that time of the night, but following advice from his lawyer he still claims that he just got lost on his way home after a night out with the guys. The prosecutor didn't buy that story and still plans to press charges on possession of drugs for personal use and resale. His manager has refused to comment on the situation and states: "As long as he is not convicted he will be allowed of continue his career in our gym". He futher added: "The only place Joseph "MudSlinger Gift 2001" Marconi will be dealing cheap shots is in the ring!"

Badass of the world

 at Wednesday 14th August, 2002 by pitypart
Current Scandinavian titleholder Aaron Badass is touted to be one to watch for the coming months. Aaron Badass is undefeated in 20 fights with the only slight blemish on his record being a draw that fans still claim he won. He now ventures out to fight on a world scale in pursuit of the world title – and is the only undefeated heavyweight in contenders at the moment. He’s still got a tough job to do before he can bag a fight for the title but with the right management and a bit of luck he could be there in a couple of months.

Secret B.A.R.F summit

 at Monday 12th August, 2002 by pitypart
At a secret summit the Brotherhood Against Real Flashers (B.A.R.F) met with the newly created Brotherhood Against Sissy Slappers (B.A.S.S). The reason was to plan a grand joined operation to rid the WeBL world of flashers and sissies and bring the joy of bodypunching, pain and suffering back into boxing. The summit started with the ceremonial sacrifice of chickens and the kicking of a stray dog. Once the entertainment was over it was time for the more serious business. Sadly NewsFlash is unable to report from that part of the meeting as the reporter was driven away from the summit after accusations of being a sissy. He managed to avoid getting killed and the mob settled for a serious beating. Thankfully the reporter was Swedish so his family did not mind him returning home all yellow and blue.

DontShutMeOut apply for movie role

 at Monday 12th August, 2002 by pitypart
Shortly after DontShutMeOut heard of tnt-Fashion Victims movie offer he instantly decided to apply for a role in the next episode of Lord Of The Rings. Inside reports state that the directors response was: "He would fill the role of an Ogre perfectly as he wouldn't need much makeup so that would save us a lot of money. The only problem would be to get him killed fast enough before he tries to say a line or any of the actors quit because of him." It is yet unknown if he will get the role as the price to fly him to Australia for the shoot would be substantial and a bluescreen large enough to do the filming in Denmark was not available.

tnt-Fashion Victim takes on Hollywood

 at Monday 12th August, 2002 by pitypart
According to reliable sources inside the Hollywood movie industry tnt-Fashion Victim has been offered a small role in the upcoming movie Terminator 3. From the leaked script that NewsFlash has gotten into possession tnt-Fashion Victim is supposed to play a defunct Terminator that turned out to be unable to blend into the society it was supposed to be send back to as it was much too focused on wearing the latest designer wear and always ended up being fashionably late for the termination. The Terminator was supposed to have been scrapped but terrorists in the future has gotten their hands on it and activated it. This causes some hilarious situations throughout the movie and rumour has it that Arnold Schwarzenegger is considering pulling out of the movie if tnt-Fashion Victim gets the part as it would take focus too much away from him and his oneliners.

 at Saturday 10th August, 2002 by pitypart
Today was (another!) odd day at the Anfield Road gym. I arrived early since today was the day I was going to find out who is was to fight next. As I entered I noticed the smell was different, not unpleasent just different. Anfield then came up to me and said it was time to start my training and handed me a portion of chili con carne. Needless to say I was confused, but far be it from me to turn down a free meal so I sat down and started eating. I managed to get hold of the matchmaker as he returned from the bathroom (he obviously had also been eating Anfields chili con carne), and he told me I'd be fighting a mexican journeyman with a really bad record so anything short of a KO for me would be too little. I doubt that'll be a problem though. With my superiour skills and Anfields bad chili con carne I'd just have to breathe on him to get him to fall over. Sorry, gotta go. I suddenly got an urgent appointment with a toilet...

Peter "francoboy" Saaf returns home

 at Thursday 8th August, 2002 by pitypart
This morning Peter "francoboy" Saaf returned to Sweden with his new belt. He was greeted by hordes of happy Aggerudians after his incredible win against Pasoa blows a kiss to Silver in Belgium yesterday. Later today he will attend a training session at the gym where he started his career to encourage the children and sign autographs. At this point it is still uncertain who his opponent will be in his first defence and the manager of Aggerud Fight Club stated that he was "still considering options".

The Curse of 12 straight KOs

 at Tuesday 6th August, 2002 by pitypart
This week sported two titlefights with one part coming off a 12 fight KO streak. In Super-Bantam graduated fighters can flash too of gym "Parre" was up against Gilbert Ganado of Space Hole, but despite good work in the first round graduated fighters can flash too tired too fast and never got closer to the win than a stun in round 1. The fight got stopped between round 8 and 9 as graduated fighters can flash too had a cut that made it impossible for him to continue. This most likely saved him from being brutally knockouted a round or two later.

In Super-Featherweight I Will Go Allout and Knock You Out took a different approach against tnt-Boogie Man. tnt-Boogie Man was being very cautious in the early rounds having obvious respect for the punching power I Will Go Allout possesses. I Will Go Allout on the other hand relied solely on his jab until tnt-Boogie Man finally opened up enough to win a round. I Will Go Allout then went allout but was unable to get any payoff from it. A last ditch attempt at winning the fight by jabbing wildly in the last round was warded off by tnt-Boogie Man with more accurate defensive jabbing.

So in two weeks we've had 3 titlefights with fighter being on a 12 fight KO streak - and all three has left the ring as losers. Is it a curse? Or is it the work of the Brotherhood Against Real Flashers, also known as B.A.R.F?

Earlier today Uther O`Treasach of Hands of Vecna was pulled over by the police at a speed control at the local highway. Sources state that he was "driving considerably faster than what was allowed". It is also reported that he was in an agitated mood and had it not been for the calm intervention from his passenger it could likely have gotten to a fight between Uther O`Treasach and the officers.

Dear Diary

 at Saturday 3rd August, 2002 by pitypart
As you probably know my first fight ended with me as a resounding winner. Well, maybe not that resounding but it was a win! And I had to work a bit for it too so it's good for my form, though my ribs disagree with that a little.

After the fight I figured it was about time to re-negotiate my salary with me winning a fight, being popular and all. Since I wasn't quite sure of the salary level I decided to ask around a little to get an idea of how much I should demand. I have to say the answers I got shocked me! Anfield Road is a cheapskate! When I signed the contract I was promised Gold and Riches - and now I find out this! Of all the guys that fought for Anfield in the last week 1, I repeat: ONE lousy fighter got paid! And was it the guy who won? Nope. The other guy who won? Nope, not a single one of those who won got paid. Neither did the Swedish loser. Nope. The only guy who got paid was... the guy that drew his fight! The only guy that couldn't get the judges to reach a decision is the only guy who got paid! Anfield Road slipped him a $10 bill and told him to buy a Happy Meal. Hmm, at second thought I better get a lawyer to do my salary negotiating. I've got this feeling that Anfield Road would be the kind of guy who would write a contract entirely in small print just to be safe. I'm starting to wonder if he's as good as he claims he is.. maybe he's just good at making deals but doesn't really know anything about boxing.

Next week Anfields matchmaker put me up against a guy named Slap me blue from Mamas Boys. This looks like it shouldn't be too hard. Sure, the guy won his first fight on KO - but seriously, how scary can a guy be who brings his mother along as manager? And with my massive fan base he really should be just blown out of the ring. My fans love me you know. I'm not going to _slap_ him blue, but the day after the fight he'll be more blue than a smurf! And that's a promise. Oh, there comes Anfield - I better look like I'm training, maybe he'll give me $10 *hmpf*.

First regional title for gym "Parre"?

 at Thursday 1st August, 2002 by pitypart
Monday could turn out to be a big day for gym "Parre" as graduated fighters can flash too is challenging for the Scandinavian Super-Bantam title. graduated fighters can flash too brings a perfect record of 12 straight KOs to the ring and has several wins against boxers from respected gyms on his resume. His opponent will be Gilbert Ganado of Space Hole. Gilbert Ganado is a fighter with a bit more experience but lacks power and his chin has proven vulnerable a couple of times in the past. This could very well be the only edge graduated fighters can flash too will need to bring home the title.

Fred 'the Hun' Gunn Wins!

 at Thursday 1st August, 2002 by pitypart
In one of the most anticipated fights this week Scandinavias newest pet Fred "the Hun" Gunn of Anfield Road defeated Just because I don`t say anything... of Democratic Republic of Aggerud by unanimous decision. It was a hard fought fight that showcased the power of both fighters who tried their best to do well with the eyes of Scandinavia upon them. It was a close fight early on but in the middle rounds the Hun was able to pull away and put the finishin touch on the fight in round 11 with aggressive jabbing. Just because I don`t say anything.. came out looking for a KO in the last round but was unable to penetrate the Huns defence, leaving the Hun as a clear winner on points.

KO artist to take title?

 at Thursday 1st August, 2002 by pitypart
This week it was the then undefeated Sjukdomarenatursamtalriktningenbartikel of punish your machine who brough a streak of 12 straigh KOs to the ring in an attempt to conquer the title - but failed against a more experienced fighter. Next week I Will Go Allout and Knock You Out, of Hands of Vecna, will try to do better as he also brings a streak of 12 straight KOs with the only blemish on his record being the loss by KO in his first fight. Next weeks titlefight pits him against tnt-Boogie Man of [tnt]-the newbie troop and once again it seems to be a mismatch against a more experienced fighter.Both I Will Go Allout and Knock You Out and his manager has gone on record to say that they don't expect a victory but will look at it as a learning experience for I Will Go Allout and Knock You Out.

Did you ever wonder how life is for a boxer in Scandinavia? Well, now is your chance to find out! NewsFlash hired the 12 year old kid next door to hack into the main server in Anfield Road Gym to see what fun stuff he had laying around - and guess what! It appears Fred "the Hun" Gunn is keeping his diary on that very server as well! So in the near future NewsFlash will bring you the very best of Fred "the Hun" Gunn's secret diary and his views on his career, manager, opponents, their managers and the region of Scandinavia in general. Stay tuned.

Btw. Anybody want to buy cheap Guns'n'Roses bootlegs? No? Maybe some polaroid pictures of Anfield Road in compromising situations? (well, maybe not compromising but we figured we'd get paid better if we said they were. He really is just wearing a sweatshirt - but it's a blue one!)

This marks [tnt]-the newbie troop's step out of the shadows to become one of WeBLs hottest prospects following a thoroughly solid performance in WICT. What Scandinavia has known for a while has now been showcased to the world and we eagerly await the follow up.

The personification of Destruction!

 at Tuesday 23rd July, 2002 by pitypart
If you pass him on the street you probably won't notice. He doesn't stand out from the crowd much. But he is one of Scandinavias most lethal men and not one you want to be in a boxing ring with.

Who is he? Sjukdomarenatursamtalriktningenbartikel of punish your machine. In his 12 professional fights he has scored 12 KO's. And not just any kind of KO's. Every single one has been brutal destructions of his opponent. It has been said (though not to his face!) that his record is inflated and his only credible win was again Danish Success In Korea of HRulez. It's true that he has not fought the best opponents around - but who is ducking who? And will we see him step up to a big fight before he leaves to take on the world?

Lgd the Unclean unsuccessful in comeback

 at Monday 30th December, 2002 by pitypart
The hard-hitting flyweight Lgd the Unclean (15-3-2) returned from a two-week break to fight Glark Cable (17-4-2) for the title. It was a close fight but Glark Cable seemed to be one step ahead at all times and kept Lgd the Uncleans power successfully at bay. It all ended in a disqualification as Lgd the Unclean was caught doing a head butt after having been floored by Glark Cable earlier in the final round.

Probable Monkey defeats Fred 'the Hun' Gunn

 at Monday 30th December, 2002 by pitypart
Christmas wasn't good on Fred "the Hun" Gunn (18-4-0) as he slumped to his fourth loss against the talented Probable Monkey (18-2-0) in a split decision. There was little doubt that The Hun was the hardest hitter of the two but the accurate punching of Probable Monkey allowed him to build up a substantial lead. In time The Huns hard punches stated to take it's toll and Probable Monkey was stunned on occasions but he still managed to endure till the end and get a well-earned decision victory.

Super-Middleweight Rundown

 at Friday 20th December, 2002 by pitypart
Hur skulle Down (6-1-0) became the first to defeat Moellerens 5. soenn (5-1-0). Hur skulle Down landed more and harder punches than Moellerens 5. soenn and was rightfully awarded with a unanimous decision.
---
Bjarne Baghold (5-0-0) won a lopsided decision over journeyman Hans Hansen (8-16-1). Hans Hansen was in the ropes in the first round but managed to stay on his feet but hardly landed a punch in the fight.
---
ANorwegianStepsUpToSmackCrapOutOfHasan (9-2-0) continued his hot streak with a 9th round knockout of old-timer Daniel Hartstaal (31-39-1).
---
Fran Rosa (12-2-0) continued his fight back to being a hot prospect as he KO'd Chandler Matrix (11-4-0) in the 9th round. Fran Rosa withstood the initial onslaught from Chandler Matrix and had little trouble finishing him off as he lost his breath.
---
tnt-Rock `n` Roll Star (11-0-0) easily defeated the weak chinned journeyman Kenneth "Lycktstolpen" Renberg (41-40-0) but failed to deliver the knockout the fans wanted.
---
Rumpa Bar (20-12-5) got a surprising win as Johan Elmander (13-2-0) saw himself disqualified for a head butt. Not the best indication of trust in his own abilities from Johan Elmander when he fells the need to cheat against opponents of this quality.
---
David "Schmellis" Ellis (25-9-3) successfully defended his title by a unanimous decision over Wilma "another litle girl" Christensen (30-22-4).
David "Schmellis" Ellis went ahead from the start and was never really threatened though he started showing signs of wear towards the end.

Lind Pulls Off Good Win

 at Wednesday 18th December, 2002 by tnt
Kent-Ove Lind (Hoops) has had a tough time lately with only one win in his last four fights. So he was clearly the underdog in todays fight against Mark 13 (Peekaboo), who returned to action after more than one year of retirement. Mark fought his way to contenders through the Scandinavian region and now has a record of 23-5-0 (21/3).
Mark had Lind on the canvas in the opening round but Lind shook it off and could fight on. Despite some swelling around his right eye it was easy sailing for Lind from then on. He used cautious power-punching and could get both the points and see how Mark was slowly tiring. What had started so well for Mark ended up in pure humiliation as he collapsed limply on to his stool after the 12th being nowhere near Lind in the points. He also had plenty of cuts and a broken nose and it wasn't a pretty sight.

Badass Dynasty On The Rise!

 at Wednesday 18th December, 2002 by pitypart
The infamous Badass Dynasty of Finland is once again making it's mark on Scandinavia. Lead by the fierce Brian Badass (15-0-0), "Dirty" Harry Badass (13-0-0) and Jerry Badass (15-0-0) they are plowing through the ranks with no remorse. At this point only limited information about the dynasty has been released but it is believed to be a part of the Badass Dynasty of old that has now once again surfaced. But no only Scandinavia is feeling the wrath of the Badass Dynasty. Eric Badass (5-0-0) is currently wrecking havoc in the professional region much to the dismay of anybody but Scandinavians.

Unrest at the Newbie Troop?

 at Tuesday 17th December, 2002 by parre
While tnt-The Newbie Troop produces quality fighter after quality fighter and looks to guide undefeated fighters to the world title, reports are claiming unrest, verbal attacks and fights inbetween the boxers in the tnt gym.

The new arrivals from other gyms to tnt have sparked fierce protests from the oldtimers. The rumours of a new slugging instructor that has banned the relaxing hanging from the roof that was so prevalant earlier has not made this situation any better.

Mr. Tnt himself was not available to comment this at the time this article went to the presses, so we will just have to wait and see what effects this unrest will have.

Fighter Seeking Manager For Mutual Friendship

 at Monday 16th December, 2002 by pitypart
Swedish man is seeking new manager for new impulses in career. I'm 160 centimetres tall and weight 59 kilo. Travel time is to be expected since I'm pursuing a career on a worldwide scale that I hope could end with a world title in time. Despite a few knockout losses I'm still in reasonable shape and able to form sentences that makes sense with words with more than three syllables.

Please reply on either the bulletin board on the Scandinavian Forum or to WCF2 c/o NewsFlash.

Ludde Dark Elf made the fatal error of jabbing against the hard-hitting graduated fighters can flash too who were then free to do whatever he wanted and were quick to seize the chance and get the knockout. It was a day of celebration for his manager and Gym "Parre" as well as graduated fighters can flash too's title was the first Scandinavian title brought to Gym "Parre"

Martin Scand Qualifier On The Welter Situation

 at Sunday 15th December, 2002 by pym
Earlier this week the draw for the second round in the welter Olympic qualifying tournament was announced at a press conference in Narvik, Norway. Martin Scand Qualifier had flown in with his manager by helicopter to get the news first hand and Newsflash did not miss the opportunity to ask a few questions:

Martin Scand Qualifier, you got Second Olympic Wannabe from VvFC in the next round, what is your first thoughts?

-A very tough opponent indeed... He had some problems when fighting a dummy fighter last week, but then again, the dummies seem to be really strong. I expect this to be a close fight with some surprises...

You looked very impressive last week when you defeated Carambole from Parre in an intense fight. Comments?

-That was a great fight, Carambole kept even score right until the last rounds and stunned me bad one time. I managed to clear my head and take a few of the last rounds on points and was ready when he tried to knock me down in the last. I'm prepared for everything, remember that Wannabe!

Finally, give me a helping hand here; should I head on to the bookmaker and put a bet on Martins AF representing Scandinavia in the upcoming Olympics or not?

-I'll certainly do my best to get my manager on the team, but the opposition looks to be as tough as it gets. Welter is probably his best chance though, if I win this next fight anything can happen.

The local bookmaker was closed due to the heavy blizzard that roared northen Norway, and maybe that was a good thing because that inside tip did not make me much wiser. The qualifications are wide open and Martin Scand Qualifier is certainly one of the things that can happen. No one except maybe Second Olympic Wannabe would bet against that.

Juliana Hatfield overcame Rotmo`s 'Peekaboo Memorial' Fighter!

 at Sunday 15th December, 2002 by pitypart
The two surprise flyweight title contenders put on a close fight that ended with Juliana Hatfield (16-3-4) defeating Rotmo`s "Peekaboo Memorial" Fighter (13-4-3) in a narrow decision. Both fighters fought hard from the start but Rotmo`s "Peekaboo Memorial" Fighter soon started to gasp for breath and in the end Juliana Hatfield easily out-jabbed him in the last round to win the decision.

Hasan`s Slayer3 In Strong Comeback

 at Sunday 15th December, 2002 by pitypart
The hard-hitting straw weight prospect Hasan`s Slayer3 (5-0-0) has made an impressive comeback to boxing. Hasan`s Slayer3 recently relocated to Sweden to return to the ring under Anfield Roads management. His two fights so far has resulted in unanimous decisions against tnt-Dan Heaton (4-1-0) and tnt-James Heaton (4-1-0) both won on powerful boxing that ripped the opponents apart allowing Hasan`s Slayer3 to secure the decision in the end. The only thing missing so far is the brutal knockouts to put the icing on the cake.

Draw for Sten och Stanley

 at Saturday 14th December, 2002 by tnt
The top fight in heavyweight this week was Sten och Stanley (DRoA) taking on the undefeated "Monsterous" Dave Black (Kramer). Both fighters were in great form with Monsterous being on 22 straight wins and S&S going 10 fights undefeated. It turned out to be quite a slapping contest although S&S tried to use more power. Consequently Monsterous had slight control of the points while S&S got an edge on endurance. The 10th round proved quite decisive for the outcome of the fight. Despite being one point down S&S suddenly opted to go with lots of power in his punches and it was unclear if his intentions were going fo a KO or if he wanted to suck the energy out of Monsterous. What was clear was that Monsterous won the round clearly and found himself with a comfortable two-point lead with only two rounds left. S&S feinted aggressively to take the last rounds but it was only enough to get a draw. It means both fighters get to keep their nice undefeated streaks but obviously Monsterous fantastic win streak came to an end.

In the other top heavyweight fights:
Owen Ireland and tnt-Ronnie fought to a draw for the second week in a row.
SuperBosse beat Trev Alberts after a majority decision.
Sektion E KOed Big Rover in the 9th round.

To Boldly Go Where No Fan Has Gone Before!

 at Friday 13th December, 2002 by pitypart
After his last fight Sgt. Major Payne had a somewhat unusual experience in the dressing room. He was relaxing his king-size hot tub wearing nothing but a Margarita when he was abruptly interrupted by a tingling sensation between his legs. It turned out that his assistants pet lizard had escaped end was now enjoying some time off in the hot tub as well. Sgt. Major Payne jumped out of the hot tub and yelled for his assistant. The young girl rushed in as she feared what had happened but stopped just inside the door shocked by what she saw. There, right in front of her, was a stark naked Sgt. Major Payne with a Margarita in one hand and a lizard dangling in the other. Sgt. Major Payne reacted quickly to the odd situation and drank the Margarita as fast as he could before handing the girl her lizard and putting a hand around her shoulders to comfort her. It later turned out that the lizard was named Sgt. Major Payne and liked watching boxing on TV while being petted.

Dave 'Daddy Quickie' Hanvey Invests In Strip Club!

 at Friday 13th December, 2002 by pitypart
While other boxers have decided to invest their fortunes in stocks and bonds Dave "Daddy Quickie" Hanvey decided to go in a different direction and buy a local strip club. It's unclear if Dave "Daddy Quickie" Hanvey is planning to hire a manager to take care of the club while he pursuits his boxing career or if he is planning to find the time to manage the club himself. The public received the news with mixed emotions. And elderly lady stated: "Dave Hanvey is such a nice guy, why does he get himself involved in such a dirty club?" and then shook her head before starting to beat on the reporter with her walking stick. A regular at the club said: "It's great to get a strong man to handle the girls with a firm hand - and hopefully he'll find time to get on stage as well!".

Rotmo`s "Peekaboo Memorial" Fighter fight for title!

 at Thursday 12th December, 2002 by pitypart
One lopsided decision over Small Change (29-29-0) was all Rotmo`s "Peekaboo Memorial" Fighter (13-3-3) needed to bag himself a title fight. His opponent will be Juliana Hatfield (15-3-4) who is coming straight off a crushing knockout of Paranoid Ant (14-9-4) who didn't last 2 minutes against Juliana. The announcement of the title fight came as somewhat of a surprise as Rotmo`s "Peekaboo Memorial" Fighter were ranked 8th in flyweight while Juliana Hatfield were ranked 3rd in junior-flyweight. But the fight is on and the fighters are getting ready for what will be the first title fight for both fighters.

Bosse Wins Scand Derby

 at Thursday 12th December, 2002 by tnt
The Bosse Backstrom (Flat Out) vs Phil Lips (SMH) fight was the highlight of todays contenders action in super-middleweight. The pair fought 3 weeks ago in a RT fight that ended in a draw after Lips looked to be in control but wasn't aggressive enough in the end to win it. Bosse Backstrom is to Flat Out what TheMythologyWillWinTheTitleEventually is to HRulez. He has more losses now (28-14-7) than most Flat Out fighters have in their entire career and it took him 11 (!!!) RT fights before he made it to contenders. Nonetheless the fans love him for his perseverance and never-say-day-attitude.

The rematch was just as close as their last encounter and Lips had the edge on endurance while neither fighter took control of the points. Towards the end it was Backstrom who showed slightly better accuracy with his punches and he found himself with a two-point lead with only one round to go. Lips hit the panic button at this point and came out like a raging bull and the round provided some real drama. Backstrom knocked Lips down for a 9-count but Lips got up and repayed the favor with an 8-count and a stun. Backstrom then landed a terrific haymaker that had Lips down for another 9-count. The crowd was absolutely exstatic at the show they were witnessing and everyone was out of their seat cheering their favourite on. The deciding blow came after 2:02 when Backstrom landed a bone crushing right hook that left Lips senseless.

Bosse was the fans favourite before the fight but Lips certainly earned their respect with his wonderful Braveheart perfromance in the final round. Both fighters received standing ovations as they left the ring. Lips looked exhausted after the fight but still managed to wave to the crowd as the medics carried him out to the waiting ambulance.

Bengan Climbing To the Top

 at Wednesday 11th December, 2002 by tnt
Anna Lindberg became the latest WT winner from DRoA on Sunday and Newsflash predicts that Bengan Reborn Gustafsson is next in line to reach the top. Bengan had a tough fight in welterweight today against Evil Scientist (Kramer), who was on an eight fight undefeated streak heading in to this fight. Bengan got off to a decent start and won the first couple of rounds as both aimed for the body. It was alarming to see bleeding below Bengans left eye as early as the first round, but he coped with it well. Scientist looked stronger but he had to work harder to land punches and keep the score close, so the endurance battle was kept very close. Towards the end Scientist had to jab to get the points he needed and Bengan took the opportunity to gain an endurance advantage. With a two point deficit at the start of the 11th Scientist went inside for a KO, but it was Bengan who had the crowd on their feet as he landed some very hard body blows. After 2:51 it was lights out for Scientist as Bengan penetrated his opponent's low defense and scored the KO.
Don't be surprised to see these two meet again in the future, but next time with a WT at stake.

St Andrews Returns To Action

 at Wednesday 11th December, 2002 by tnt
The classic fighter St Andrews has returned to the world stage to hunt the WT he's been yearning for for so long. He made a name for himself in the Gazza's Gang gym and has been desperately unlucky not to win a WT. He gives Latsas Lars (DRoA) a run for his money when it comes to which Scand has the worst WT fight record. Andrews has a record of 0-5-3 in WT fights. At the end of his spell with Gazza he only won one of his last eight fights and looked to be in permanent retirement. After 9 months he has signed for Gym Parre and returned to the thick of the action yesterday in lightweight. Experts were doubtful whether he still had what it takes to succeed at the highest level after such a lengthy lay-off. He looked a little rusty against Tango Orange (Kewari) but he worked hard to get an endurance advantage and jabbed succesfully to keep score close. With score even in the 11th Andrews tried to trap Orange against the ropes and score a KO. Even though Orange was jabbing aggressively his still looked untroubled by Andrews' power punches and the fight looked to be slipping out of Andrews' hands. Parre told him he had nothing to lose in the last round and Andrews came out throwing everything he had. Orange went crashing down for two 9 counts but managed to get up. The referee then got involved and deducted a point for Andrews after a head-butt. It meant he got the round 9-7 which was exactly enough to edge past Orange on points and Andrews could breathe a sigh of relief as the judges gave him a unanimous decision. The win puts him in 6th place in the rankings.

Anfield to go AWOL on Imp?

 at Tuesday 10th December, 2002 by parre
According to rumours heard from underground leftist sites, Anfield is not going to attend Simple Imperialist Gimps upcoming fight with Impersonal, the reason being that he is going to Copenhagen to protest against world injustices. Intense negotiations are being held between Borge and Anfield to move the fight to neutral territory (Denmark). We will see how this unravels and if Anfield will stick by his gimp or leave him to his own fate in the hands of a crazy norwegian.

ZOO Finally Gets A Fight

 at Monday 9th December, 2002 by tnt
It's been a frustrating couple of weeks for the king of bantamweight, For you Aggerud ZOO. He has been forced to a two week rest due to noone wanting to fight him. This week he came back to action though as Theo Ratliff (Smokin Joe) stepped up to take the challenge. Ratliff is a 6 time bantam champ but he won his titles almost a year ago. Since then he's had almost half a years retirement and then fought in super-fly and lost a WT fight there last week.

With a five-inch height disadvantage he went inside trying to wear down ZOO. It failed miserably and ZOO could dance his way to a comfortable endurance and point lead. At the half way point ZOO had won all the rounds and Ratliff was slowing down. With such a great start the fight was as good as over. Ratliff fought bravely though and managed to take the fight to a decision. The most generous of the judges gave Ratliff a tie in one round but the other two gave all the rounds to ZOO. Another great performance by ZOO who now has 10 WTs.

LaBianca Beaten

 at Monday 9th December, 2002 by tnt
The boxing world was beginning to think this day would never come but Abrianna LaBianca actually lost a fight today. She had moved down from lightweight to have a go at the super-feather champ WBA Featherweight (Wilkie). She got off to a bad start with bleeding over her left eye as early as the first round. WBA Featherweight got an early two point lead and still gained an endurance advantage. However, she fought back nicely and could even out the score and keep endurance relatively close. As both raised aggression and jabbed in the closing rounds it all came down the final round with score even. It was WBA Featherweight who got the all important last round with more aggressive jabbing and the judges agreed on a unanimous decision.

LaBianca's undefeated streak consequently came to an end after an amazing 29 fights streak. It was her first loss in a WT fight as well, so disappointment of course. But with a 44-4-4 record and 15 WTs she is still the undisputed Queen of WeBL. Next week we hope to see the beginning of another 29 fights without defeat!

Flatty Goes Pro Writes History Again

 at Sunday 8th December, 2002 by tnt
Loyal Newsflash readers may remember that Flatty Goes Pro (Flat Out) became the first ever Scand to both fight and win in the professional region. That was four weeks ago and today he reached a handful of new landmarks in the short history of the WeBL Pro region. He defeated Pugilistic Execution (Damage Inc) to crown himself the first ever title winner in the Pro region! Of course, at the same time he becomes the first Scand champ fighter, the first flyweight champ ever and the first Scand flyweight champ ever. Talk about record breaking stuff!

Lindberg On Top of the World

 at Sunday 8th December, 2002 by tnt
Anna Lindberg won her 1st ever WT today and bacame the 6th DRoA fighter with a WT. It was very dramatic from start to finish. Current champ Anti Pro (Gold Gloves) put up a great fight and made sure the crowd got a real treat. Lindberg worked hard to get a slight endurance advantage and score was kept agonisingly close, as neither fighter had more than a 1 point lead at any time. As both jabbed for points in the 10th Anti Pro got the edge by landing slightly more punches. This led to Lindberg going for a stun in the 11th, with score even, and she got it with an uppercut to the eye. She then jabbed aggressively to win the final round but an unintentional headbutt made the referee deduct a point, since she had already been warned in the 3rd round. Despite the close score and the point deduction all three judges had Lindberg as winner on their scorecard. Next week could see a rematch which should be another nailbiter.

Ihopblandarnamn Bounces Back

 at Sunday 8th December, 2002 by tnt
Scandinavia's strawweight sensation and new media darling pym namnihopblandarnamn punch bounced back from last weeks devestating DQ loss to win today. Ihopblandarnamn looked really psyched up for the fight and last weeks refereeing scandal looked to have worked as fuel on his fire. His opponent, Garry Olsen (Devastation Inc) got the early points but ihopblandarnamn got the endurance advantage. In the mid rounds he took full control of the fight by scoring a couple of stuns. Olsen was slowing down by the 10th but he almost made it to the bell before ihopblandarnamn landed a left bomb that Olsen couldn't recover from. The Scand is now ranked 28th with a record of 23-2-0.

Imp Challenge Update

 at Saturday 7th December, 2002 by tnt
The Imp Challenge continues and week two has just passed. Five have taken joint lead and it is the Imps from Parre, Ogrus, Borge, Anfield and Nick's Naughty Ninjas that lead the pack at this early stage. The high profile fight between Impish Shrimp (SMH) and Aggerud Pimp (DRoA) ended in a draw which leaves them both trailing in the rankings. The only fighter to have beaten two fellow Imps is Simple Imperialist Gimp (Anfield). He has wins against Improbability Driver (PityPart) and Impolite (Vecna) and sent both of them into early retirement. This makes him the Imp to beat at the moment and it looks like either Impersonal (Borge) or Imp With a Limp (Nick's Naughty Ninjas) will get the chance to have a go at him next week.

Robber Confident To Extend Streak

 at Thursday 5th December, 2002 by pym
The world's highest ranked, rated and respected unbeated figther is tnt- Robber of Life. Newsflash managed to get a quick word with him.

How are the preparations for the Yelsin fight going?

-They're coming along nicely. The boss gave me the day off after my last fight and today I had some light training. The fight against Yelsin was confirmed this morning so my manager and I will watch some videotapes and go through tactics tomorrow. I'll be doing some sparring against similar opponents to make sure I'm fully prepared for Monday's fight.

The rumour says that this is an easy match-up for you arranged to secure that you arrive undefeated to the titlefight, What is your comment to that?

-I would say there aren't really any easy match-ups at this level but hopefully Yelsin will suit me. If you compare our records there's no doubt I should beat him, he's had more than twice as many fights. That being said there is no room for complacency. I don't arrange opponents to get "easy" match-ups, I have never retired or changed weight division since I broke in to contenders so I don't think anyone can accuse me of that.

A poll recently published tells that 87% of boxing fans in Scandinavia names Robber - LaBianca as the number one dreamfight to be. Any plans on making that fight come true?

-I wonder what the other 13% want to see? (laugh)
I will do everything I can to make that come true, it is a dream fight for me too of course. I still have four fights to win before it can happen so I have to try to focus on them first and not get distracted by the LaBianca-speculation.

tnt- Robber of life has his priorities set straight and the first step is to make his pro record 26-0-3 on Monday. The first of a few steps leading to the fight we all look forward to.

Hagbard World Champ Again

 at Wednesday 4th December, 2002 by tnt
Hagbard Handfaste has won the the super-welter WT belt that he lost 5 weeks ago. He took the belt from current champ Dark Avatar (Konan) but it wasn't the thrilling encounter that the fans had expected. The fight only lasted 5 minutes 21 seconds before the referee disqualified Avatar for a head-butt. Avatar threw a head-butt in the first round too but that time the referee ignored. The second time Handfaste went to his corner in protest and the referee had seen enough. Nevertheless Handfaste grabs his 4th WT and last time he got the belt he held on to it for three weeks. Only time will tell if he can repeat or improve on that.

It's LaBianca Day

 at Tuesday 3rd December, 2002 by tnt
It's that time of the week again! The time when Abrianna LaBianca wins her umpteenth WT and the same question arises each week: will she ever lose again? It was WT number 15 today after she won the rematch with R.Little (Wilkie). She looked more in control this week and the judges handed her a unanimous decision as opposed to the majority decision last week. With points going to LaBianca Little tried going for a KO in the end but ended up being stunned himself. For those of you keeping score this was LaBianca's 29th consecutive fight without defeat. Her record in WT fights is a staggering 15-0-1! Only 11 fighters in WeBL history have won more WTs and the Scand record of 17, held by David Ellis, looks to be broken in a not too distant future.

High Flying Super-Fly

 at Sunday 1st December, 2002 by tnt
It was pretty much a black day for Scands in contenders today but it wasn't all doom and gloom. Anna Lindberg (DRoA) took her chance and beat Fuzzy Duckling (Snugglebunny), which means she is ready for her first WT fight. She has been fighting in bantamweight her entire career but moved down to super-fly this week and if she stays there she will challenge Anti Pro (Gold Gloves) for the WT belt next week. Lindberg has become better and better all the time. She went through regionals with 5 losses and then lost 3 of her 5 first contender fights. Since then she's gone 17-2-0 with one of the two losses being by DQ. Needless to say she has the potential to become another dominant fighter from the DRoA gym.

Strawweight Scandal

 at Sunday 1st December, 2002 by tnt
The fight that was expected to be the Sunday highlight turned out to be a scandal. Scandinavia's finest strawweight prospect pym namnihopblandarnamn punch was up against Jerri Blank (Smokin Joe). Both fighters started bodypunching and ihoplblandarnamn had the crowd roaring after a furious hook to the chest. The arena was buzzing with excitement as it looked to be a real slugging contest with ihopblandarnamn looking to have an advantage. It seemed Blank was realising it was gonna be a painful 12 rounds and when the fighters clashed heads slighlty he pretended to be injured. It was the worst play-acting since Rivaldo in the World Cup but the referee believed him! This scandalous decision means the second career loss for ihopblandarnamn, his first contender loss, his first loss under pym's management and the end of a 13 fight win streak. It doesn't get more disappointing than this.

As if this wasn't enough, undefeated Pit Lane (SMH) suffered his first career loss after a split decision against Tribute Fighter (Clint).

Shell-Crazy Beats Undefeated TC

 at Saturday 30th November, 2002 by tnt
Thomas "Shell-Crazy" Hansson (Stockholm Fighters) has had his ups and downs in his contender career. Fridays win against Tomato Can (Kewari) was probably the highlight of his career though. Why was that a big deal you may ask? Because TC had a 23-0-3 record prior to fighting Shell-Crazy. It was a fight where the slapper TC looked to be running away with the points but where Shell-Crazy made a great come-back. After jabbing succesfully to even the score by the 10th he went for the head and could get a stun. He still needed to win the last round and thanks to a nice endurance advantage he could jab with power and outscore his tired opponent. All judges agreed Shell-Crazy deserved the win and he got the unanimous decision. An excellent fight by Shell-Crazy who could beat anyone with this kind of performance.

Heavyweight WT Race Update

 at Saturday 30th November, 2002 by tnt
A handfull of Scand fighters have started a race to be the next Scand heavyweight world champion after Main Eventer (foxxx). The leader has changed in each of the last three weeks and at present it's SuperBosse (Bonk) who finds himself highest in the rankings.

SuperBosse had a tough endurance battle with fellow Scand Sektion E (VvFC). As Sektion E ran away with the points in the closing stages Bosse went for the head. He didn't get the KO but a stun in the 11th and a knockdown in the 12th meant he won with a majority decision. Bosse is now ranked 31st in the world.

tnt-Ronnie beat Vincent Cactus (Gym & Tonic) with a unanimous decision and moved up to 33rd in the rankings.

Last weeks leader Owen Ireland unfortunately suffered defeat against Kinda Killer (Wilkie). It was a frustrating fight for Owen who just couldn't land enough punches to put pressure on Killer. He is now ranked 37th and could face tnt-Ronnie next week.

Sten och Stanley (DRoA) is the newest fighter to join the race. He climbed to 61st in the rankings after beating Save the Last Dance For Me (The Infamous Church of Ed). Sten och Stanley had problems and got stunned twice. He managed to win the important closing rounds and then avoid his opponents knockout attempt and could scrape up a tight majority decision. Next week could see a superb match-up between Sten och Stanley and Monsterous (Kramer) who holds an impressive 21-0-0 record.

Latsas Lars Ready For 12th WT Shot

 at Friday 29th November, 2002 by tnt
With both Ola Slangen Danielson and Dr Dandryer Ekelund losing their respective WT fights this week, Newsflash turns the spotlight on Latsas Lars 38-11-8 (15/5). He is renowned for his never say die attitude. Not many fighters could take a 1-8-2 WT fight record and still keep coming back again and again but that is exactly what he's done.

He booked himself his 12 WT shot by beating Shaun Rhen (Kelm) today. It turned out to be quite a slapping contest where Lars won the rounds and then dealt with Rhen's desperate allout at the end to win by KO. This was the 9th (!!!) meeting between the two so they know each other inside out by now. The head to head is 3-3-3 after todays fight so they certainly are evenly matched. The big question remains, will he improve his WT fight record next week when he steps in to the ring against Gregorski Yastimishov (Pearl Jym)? Rumour has it that Lars will be spending most of the week in therapy with a shrink specialised in sports psychology. Hopefully that can help him with his big fight jittery and lead him to a precious victory.

Handfaste Back At The Top

 at Wednesday 27th November, 2002 by tnt
Hagbard Handfaste can look forward to a new WT shot next week after winning today's important fight with Future Mitsu (Bremen). It was the 4th meeting between the two and flasher Mitsu had a 2-1 lead going in to this one. He couldn't do enough to KO Handfaste today though despite trying both inside and allout. A knockdown in both the opening rounds wasn't enough as Handfaste sent him on his back and was announced the winner after only 4 minutes of fighting.

After the win, Handfaste climbed to second in the super-welter rankings and is almost certain to challenge Darkside Avatar (Konan) for the WT belt next week.

LaBianca Unbeatable?

 at Wednesday 27th November, 2002 by tnt
Abrianna LaBianca winning WTs is hardly newsworthy material anymore, you just take for granted that she will win these days. This week was no different as R.Little (Wilkie) failed to stop the living legend. It didn't look too good though as LaBianca went for the points early on which meant Little could gain the endurance advantage. LaBianca was getting some nasty cuts as well and with score tied after the 8th it looked like she might asctually be in trouble. But then she showed her class by using just the right aggression to win the closing rounds clearly but without opening up too much. The judges gave LaBinaca the majority decision and she now has 14 WTs and 28 straight fights without defeat.

Crooks Breaks Into Top10

 at Wednesday 27th November, 2002 by tnt
Crooks Crawford followed up last weeks win against Phase Spider (Dave Black) by defeating Poppy Grower (Central Park Wigan). It was a pretty close fight although Crooks never really looked threatened.
Poppy clinched with body-punching but had problems winning rounds as Crooks also body-punched but with more aggression. Crooks only jabbed in two rounds when he was down on score but apart from that used the same body-punching tactics. With score and endurance close in the last rounds it was Crooks who looked more eager to win with very aggressive jabbing. the judges liked what they saw and all three gave their decision to Crooks who is now ranked 10th in the featherweight division.

Strawweight Starlet Wins Derby

 at Sunday 24th November, 2002 by tnt
Last weeks Newsflash-featured strawweight prospect pym namnihopblandarnamn punch continued his fantastic run of form with a win today. His record is now 22-1-0 after beating fellow Scand Wanna do well 4 myself Matrix (Gringo Ingo). Matrix is a real powerpack who looks for KO wins without being a real flasher but he could do little to stop blandarnamn today. After a few early stuns he tired very quickly as blandarnamn took the energy out of him with body punches. It ended with a 7th round KO at which point Matrix had problems finding his corner. The win pushes blandarnamn into the top 20 and with a bit of luck we could see a "dream fight" next week against Dr Frankensteen's Illegit Son (Gold Gloves), who posseses an almost as good record with 22-2-1. That would truly be a battle of the hottest prospects in strawweight.

Christmas Tourny Update

 at Sunday 24th November, 2002 by tnt
The WeBL Christmas Tournament has been a bit of a farce from an organisational point of view but the qualifiers are still going ahead. In strawweight it has reached semi-finals and Hoops is the only Scand left. He started off by beating the European Rookie Boxers and then disposed of two UK Northers: Central Park Wigan and Dogg House. The next fight looks to be a tough one against Dutch Devils.
Another group of Scands fight in welterweight and they have reached semi-finals too. Anfield and pym are the remaining Scands and they fight it out on Wednesday. The winner will fight a quite unknown South Pacific gym: Redhotgo or Starfleet Federation.

Slangen Escapes With Draw

 at Saturday 23rd November, 2002 by tnt
Ola Slangen Danielson won his 3rd WT in as many weeks in cruiserweight yesterday. It was an extremely close fight as his opponent Dr Frankensteen (Gold Gloves) put up great opposition. It was all about body punching in the early and middle rounds as score and endurance was as close as it gets. Slangen looked slightly more tired in the last two rounds and struggled to win the last important rounds. Frankensteen failed to land enough punches to win the rounds convincingly. It looked all even after the 12th with the commentator giving it by one point to Frankensteen but the he gave the last round to the challenger despite it looking like a draw. The judges were all but in agreement and the decision was a draw in the end. It was a fair result between two very evenly matched fighters. Next week could provide a rematch and that would certainly be something to look forward to.

Dandryer Hits Double Figures

 at Thursday 21st November, 2002 by tnt
Dr Dandryer Ekelund got a rematch against Pino Stecca (Gym & Tonic) who he beat in last week's super-middle WT fight. Stecca troubled Dandryer in the 4th and 6th with stuns but he was losing the endurance battle rapidly. Dandryer even had control of the points and Stecca looked helpless as the fight progressed. In the end Stecca's manager threw in the towel after the 11th and Dandryer got the TKO win.

Once again Dandryer impresses and this was his 10th WT win. Only two other Scandinavian fighters have won 10+ WTs: David Ellis and Abrianna LaBianca. So Dandryer can now proclaim himself to be one of the top Scand fighters of all time. He probably isn't content yet and the question is how many more he can get. Judging by the last couple of weeks he'll win many more and with only 1 loss in his last 15 fights it's gonna take something special to stop him.

Imp Challenge Causes Talent Hunt

 at Wednesday 20th November, 2002 by tnt
With the upcoming race to contenders a.k.a. the Imp Challenge starting on the 29th Novemeber there is a major talent hunt going on in Scandinavia. No gym with any self-respect wants to miss out so everyone is trying to find a competitive talent to sign to their gym. Some have found their Imp while others are still looking. As the deadline for entering the tournament is this weekend managers have become more and more desperate. Some have been seen scouting streetfights and pub brawls in search for a potential Imp-winner.

LaBianca Makes It Lucky Thirteen

 at Tuesday 19th November, 2002 by tnt
Abrianna LaBianca won her 13th WT after defeating Marlon Rutherford on a unanimous decision. Rutherford has won one WT back in July but followed up by losing to LaBianca and has since then struggled. It was a very close fight where little separated the fighters. LaBianca commanded the points without having a secure lead but when Rutherford had a point deducted for a headbutt in the 11th the win was more or less secured. To be safe she jabbed home the final round to make sure the judges wouldn't have any doubts.

LaBianca's amazing undefeated streak is not stretched to 27 fights and her total record is 42-3-4 (9/1) with 13 WTs.

Crooks Delivers Brutal Beating

 at Tuesday 19th November, 2002 by tnt
Last week Newsflash speculated that Crooks Crawford (Anfield) could be fighting Ice Mephit (Dave Black) this week but it turned out he moved weight divsion. Instead he got the also promising fighter Phase Spider from the same gym. Both Crooks and Spider had only 4 losses prior to the match which makes them two of the hottest featherweight contestants around.

Spider is a slapper but opted to use power against the hard-slugging Scand. It turned out to be a bad idea as Crooks' body-blows wore out Spider quickly. After the 6th Crooks looked as good as new while Spider was obviously tired and with only a one-point lead it was pretty much over already. The second half was more a question of how Crooks would win rather than if. He scored a couple of stuns, took a few rounds on points and just eased his way to a unanimous decision. Spider tried to jab his way back but was so tired that nothing could have saved him. This was by far the toughest test, on paper at least, for Crooks since his come-back four weeks ago and he passed it with flying colours.

ZOO Back Where He Belongs

 at Monday 18th November, 2002 by tnt
It was finally time for For you Aggerud ZOO's revenge as he stepped into the ring against Slappy Flyweight (Wilkie). When they met in a WT fight three weeks ago ZOO got DQed in the second round and has since won two fights to get back to WT fight level. This time it lasted all twelve rounds and it turned out to be a hard-fought contest. They looked evenly matched in the first four rounds as score and endurance was tied. Slappy let a couple of rounds go to ZOO on points and as he jabbed aggressively to get back ZOO capitalised by going hard for the body. This turned things around and with Slappy being tired in the closing rounds neither jabbing nor going for a KO could help him. Consequently ZOO took back the belt that he so rightfully deserves. He now has 9 WTs and there could be a rematch with Slappy as soon as next week.

WT Fight Schedule, week 155

Sunday Contender Prospects

at Sunday 17th November, 2002 by tnt
Lately it has seemed like Scands have more success in heavier weight divisions with top names from super-welter to cruiser. The exceptions are of course LaBianca, For you Aggerud ZOO and Martin Magic but the top Scands are not evenly distributed between the divisions. Sundays rarely bring any top contender fights but this could change soon. The hottest prospect is pym namnihopblandarnamn punch (pym) in strawweight. He boasts an excellent 21-1-0 record and after starting his career in Foxxx's gym he has gone 11-0-0 with pym. As if this wasn't enough he's fought some very stiff competition and today saw him beat Mr. Yukon Jack (Gold Gloves) on a split decision after a hard-fought contest. Last week he gave Spitting on the pavement (Goofy) his first career loss after Pavement had gone 18 fights with only wins. The future looks very bright for namnihopblandarpym and hopefully he will give us some top notch strawweight fights to look forward to.

Some other good prospects in the four lowest divisions that we might hear more of in the future are:

Straw
Pit Lane (SMH) 16-0-2
Coinneach O'Celsus (Vecna) 18-3-1

Junior-fly
Sam Badass (FlatOut) 28-5-1
The 3rd President of Aggerud (DRoA) 21-3-6

Fly
Martin from Nangiala (Martins AF) 25-6-0

Flatty goes Pro Writes History

 at Sunday 17th November, 2002 by tnt
The much hyped Professional Region kicked off with the flyweight division and Flatty goes Pro (Flat Out) became the historic first ever Scandinavian fighter to fight in the region. He also became the first Scand to win as he defeated All this for two bucks (Hole) with a split decision. With only 10 fighters registered in flyweight he has a good chance of becoming the first Scand pro champ.

Owen Backs His Smack

 at Saturday 16th November, 2002 by tnt
Unless you've been living locked up in a closet the past couple of days you will have noticed the war of words between Owen Ireland (Anfield) and Slim Fast Lasorda (Devastation Inc). With plenty of verbal abuse thrown in both directions their fight in heavyweight was more anticipated than the actual WT fight.

Owen started with some powerful body-punching that had the crowd on its feet with excitement. Lasorda couldn't quite match Owen's power but he still dealt damage on Owen and both showed signs of tiring early on. Owen had to work quite hard to win rounds but by interchanging jabbing and body-punching between rounds he gained an early endurance advantage. As the fight went on this advantage just increased and Lasorda was exhausted after the 10th. He had a one-point lead but after Ireland sat down and enjoyed some refreshing water after the round he came out like a raging bull in the 11th. He had oviously gotten instructions from Anfield to end the fight. After just over two minutes of the round he found an opening in Lasorda's defense and landed a crunching right straight. Lasorda went down and didn't get up, to Newsflash's knowledge he is still lying there catching his breath.

Dandryer Does It Again

 at Thursday 14th November, 2002 by tnt
There's no stopping Dr Dandryer Ekelund in super-middleweight these days. After beating Pino Stecca (Gym & Tonic) today he has 9 WTs in all and an undefeated streak extended to 7 fights. Dandryer used more power of the two but still won the rounds when he needed to. Stecca troubled Dandryer in the 9th with a stun but after that he was too tired to challenge for the win. Dandryer eased through the closing rounds and was awarded a majority decision by the judges.

Handfaste Lost Again

 at Wednesday 13th November, 2002 by tnt
Hagbard Handfaste had his 7th consecutive WT fight today against flasher Future Mitsu (Lord Bremen). They had met twice before with one win each but with Handfaste getting his win only a few weeks back he was held as the favourite. In both previous fights Mitsu had gone allout in round one but this time he went for a more cautious approach from the inside. It was Handfaste who scored the first stun but with only seven seconds remaining of the first round Mitsu landed a crunching left hook that left Handfaste down and out.
This was Handfaste's second straight loss and his run of WT fights will most likely come to an abrupt end next week. Neither Handfaste or B.A.R.F were available for a comment after the fight.

LaBianca Wins 12th WT

 at Tuesday 12th November, 2002 by tnt
Abrianna LaBianca fought her 26th consecutive fight without defeat today. Her opponent WeBL Murray (Kewari) failed like som many before him. Murray slapped throughout while LaBianca looked forceful with heavy power punching and then jabbing with power appropriately when she needed to win the rounds on score. After the 7th, Murray was oviously tired and panting for air and LaBianca looked fresh as if the fight had just started. The endurance advantage just increased as Murray opened up more and more and LaBianca could score stuns with ease. It all came to an abrupt end in the 11th when Murray threw everything he had in a desperate allout attempt. It resulted in LaBianca landing a mighty combination that left Murray on the canvass. The win means WT number 12, the undefeated streak extended to 26 fights and a career record of 41-3-4 (9/1)!

Magic's Misery Continues

 at Monday 11th November, 2002 by tnt
Martin Magic suffered a 5th round KO defeat against Panthro (DV3) in super-featherweight. Panthro certainly had explosive power in his punches and stunned Magic in the first round. Magic concentrated on body-work and did it succesfully as Panthro showed signs of tiring after the 4th while score was even. Surprisingly Panthro came out like a raging bull in the 5th which seemed like suicide considering Magic had used plenty of power in all previous rounds. Panthro went down for two 9-counts but amazingly survived and after 2:34 he landed a mighty combination that knocked Magic out.
Magic only has two wins in his last six fights and it will be a real test of character to see if he can get back from this and challenge for a WT in the near future.

Crooks Enters Top10

 at Monday 11th November, 2002 by tnt
Crooks Crawford (Anfield) bounced back from last weeks defeat against a Bremen flasher and won today against Lawrence Phillips (Devastation Inc). Won is actually understatement of the year, slaughter is a more appropriate word. Crawford won all rounds, scored two knockdowns and dominated endurance completely before topping it off with a 6th round KO. This means he's back in the top10 in featherweight and next week will most likely see him fight a more difficult opponent. Newsflash hopes he will take on Ice Mephit from Dave Black's gym because with a record of 24-2-1 it has the makings of a great fight.

ZOO Back At The Top

 at Monday 11th November, 2002 by tnt
For you Aggerud ZOO lost his title belt two weeks ago after a very disappointing 1st round DQ. Since then he has had to work himself back to the top to try and retain the title. Ironically he won by a 2nd round DQ today against Tyrone Snootworks (Money Talks) which means he is ready for a WT fight again.

His gymmate Anna Lindberg climbed to 4th place in the bantam rankings after beating Pepperjack Rio (Pearl Jym). Anna is doing very well at the moment and her recent results show a 15-2-0 record with one of the losses being by DQ.

TMWWTTE Marches On

 at Saturday 9th November, 2002 by tnt
After another comprehensive win in contenders the Scandinavian boxing experts are asking themselves: how long will TheMythologyWinTheTitleEventually go undefeated in conteders and can he actually go all the way to a WT? In his 72nd career fight he defeated Spankalogical Protocol (Voodoo) with a 4th round KO. It was his 5th straight KO win and his 6th contender fight and still no loss. TMWWTTE scored a knockdown in the opening round when he landed a mighty blow to the head which left Protocol down for an 8-count. He followed up with two rounds of body-punching and then landed a telling bomb in the 4th that won him the fight. He was laughed at and teased in regionals but now he's starting to look like a force to be reckoned with. Will the bubble burst next week?

Third Time's A Charm For Slangen

 at Friday 8th November, 2002 by tnt
Ola Slangen Danielsson went up in his 3rd WT fight in cruiserweight and this time he finally came out on top. His opponent Rhinox won his first WT last week with the Moneytalks gym but had switched to the Monster Isle gym for this fight. It was a close fight in the early stages but as the rounds went by Slangen dominated more and more. When Rhinox failed to win any rounds he opened up and went for the KO but Slangen was untroubled and could instead score knockdowns as Rhinox wasn't defending himself enough. Slangen put an end to Rhinox misery in the 12th with a blood splattering hook which left Rhinox down and out. Slangen was delighted afterwards, he has worked hard for this and after his 69th career fight he can finally declare himself champion of the world!

Dandryer Humiliates Trulio

 at Thursday 7th November, 2002 by tnt
Dr Dandryer Ekelund is one of the best, if not the best, active Scandinavian fighters. He proved it again today as he won his 6th straight WT and the 8th of his career. He has only one loss in his last 13 fights and there was nothing Jimmy Trulio (Sammy) could do to stop him today. Ekelund won 6 of the 7 opening rounds with more accurate power-punching and Trulio took a gamble and went for a desperate couple of allout attempts. This only resulted in himself getting three knockdowns, a stun and a great deal of tiring. The closing rounds saw both fighters just walking around staring at each other and waiting for the fight to be over. All judges gave Dandryer the decision by a crushing 119-107 score margin.

Jander Robbed and Furious

 at Thursday 7th November, 2002 by tnt
Anders Jander failed to win his 4th WT as he slumped to a disappointing defeat to the talented Flavour Is the Ticket (Konan). Ticket got a good old beating last week in the title fight in super-welter against Hagbard Handfaste and had decided to move up a weight division. Smack flew in both directions before the fight as Jander called Ticket his dream opponent. It turned out to be a nightmare though. Despite controlling the fight throughout with aggressive power-punching it turned out Jander was facing 4 opponents: Ticket and the three judges. Jander thought he had the fight sealed and even backpedalled in the last round to secure the decision. A one point win looked inevitable and a draw would still be enough to retain the title. As the announcer read the scorecard that said 114-115, 114-114 boos and jeers came from the Scandinavian section of the crowd. Then hell broke lose as Judge Chen's card read 112-116. The scenes were ugly as Scands invaded the ring and threw bottles and chairs in Chen's general direction. Armoured police cleared the arena eventually but the riots continued in the streets outside. Jander stated in a press conference afterwards that he had considered retirement but now had his mind set on a rematch against Ticket. If a new fight will take place police sources tell Newsflash they will be on high alert and call in British hooliganism police experts to handle the Scandinavian fans.

Christmas Tourny Results

 at Wednesday 6th November, 2002 by tnt
Martins AF vs HRulez
Martin mainly focused on hard body-punching while HRulez was alternating between jabbing and going powerfully to the head. HRulez scored stuns in rounds 3 and 7 but at the expense of losing endurance. Martin could stay with the score thanks to HRulez resting a couple of rounds. Things were all even after the 10th after Martin had started to jab and he looked a lot sharper than HRulez by now. HRulez realised he wouldn't win a slapping contest so he first went inside to the head but without result. It all ended in the last round as HRulez tried the desperate allout but Martin was ready for it and could find the KO winning punch.

Anfield vs Rotmo
In the other Scandinavian derby it was Sweden taking on Norway in the form of veteran Anfield taking on up 'n' comer Rotmo. Both fighters measured 5'8" and looked to be quite evenly matched. They both started with hard power-punching much to the delight of the fans. It was Anfield who looked more eager to get the points. Anfield fought well and could get a comfortable point lead as Rotmo failed to land enough punches. The lead was as big as 6 points after the 8th at which point Anfield could sit back and secure the win with cautious head shots. Rotmo tried desperately to get a KO but got KOed himself after a 12th round allout attempt. Disappointment for Rotmo but he lost against a very good opponent.

Vinterviken beat Thug Life after a unanimous decision.

pym beat Back of the Y after a unanimous decision.

Borge lost to Brockstyle after a 9th round KO.

LaBianca Back in Business

 at Monday 4th November, 2002 by tnt
The extraordinary Abrianna LaBianca came back to fight for WT number 11 after a 13 week vacation. The arena was packed to capacity with hopeful Scandinavian fans as she went in to the ring against Jenna Busch Beer (Russian Rockets). Both fighters showed some powerful body-punching and it was a close fight in all aspects. The deciding factor was when LaBianca jabbed succesfully in rounds 10 and 11 to take the points. One judge thought the fight was tied but the other two were more impressed by Abrianna and gave her the win. The win gives Abrianna not only the 11th WT but it means she extends her unbeaten streak to an unbelievable 25 fights! This is a living legend ladies and gents, let's hope she doesn't wait 13 week to fight again.

Magic Misses WT Shot

 at Monday 4th November, 2002 by tnt
Scandinavia's favourite boxing magician Martin Magic could've earned himself a WT fight if he had won today against WBA Featherweight (Wilkie). Unfortunately it was not to be as Magic slumped to a majority decision loss. It was a very close fight with both contestants throwing lots of power-punches and really having a go at each other. With score tied with one round to go it was Feather who succeeded in impressing the judges by being more aggressive and he could therefore get the win. There could well be a rematch next week and if Magic wins he could probably get a WT shot the following week.

ZOO Bounces Back

 at Monday 4th November, 2002 by tnt
After a disappointing 1st round DQ loss last week, For you Aggerud ZOO was really up for it this week against Gary Sprake (Daisy Age). Sprake is 3 inches shorter but still slapped like a sissy in this fight and ZOO tired him at the expense of losing the early rounds on points. With ZOO looking a lot fresher in the closing stages he could do what he pleased and still get the points as Sprake stumbled around punching holes in the air. The judges gave a clear unanimous decision to ZOO but it is still uncertain whether he will get a shot at the WT next week.

WT Schedule, week 153

 at Sunday 3rd November, 2002 by tnt

tnt gets first WT

 at Sunday 3rd November, 2002 by HRulez
In a very even match tnt-Phantom Lord just secured his managers first ever WT. Phantom Lord got lucky with an allout in 10th round, and now is ready to wear his new belt for a week, until he faces Latsas Lars (DRoA).

This fight will be the first all Scandinavian titlefight in a long time. Well, at least a few weeks...

Spectators were praising tnt for his glorius win and asked him to remove "newbie" from his name, but as DRoA stated: "Winning on allout proves that you are still a newbie..". Here in newsflash we are sure that there will plenty more to come from tnt-the newbie troop.... so keep 'em coming!

Scands Fight For Christmas Glory

Borge vs Brockstyle

TMWWTTE Takes Contenders With Storm

 at Saturday 2nd November, 2002 by tnt
The legendary Scandinavian heavyweight hero TheMythologyWillWinTheTitle Eventually needed 66 fights to get to contenders. Once he got there he is finding life easier than ever. The veteran who symbolises what fighting spirit is all about has 4 straight KO wins in contenders after starting with a draw. Everyone thought he would retire once he got the desirable regional titles but it seems TMWWTTE is like a fine wine and only gets better with time. He is currently on an 11 fight unbeaten streak and has stated his intentions to go all the way for the WT. Although it seems unlikely, you can never say never with this guy who is now ranked 48th, making him the second highest ranked Scand in heavyweight.

Slangen Ready for WT Shot

 at Saturday 2nd November, 2002 by tnt
Ola Slangen Danielsson (DRoA) won his third straight fight in cruiserweight after defeating Robert Alomar (Cam's Dojo) with ease. It was a hardfought slugging contest which saw Slangen running away with the points while still inflicting more damage. Alomar paniced and tried a 7th round allout which cost him the fight and a trip to the hospital. The win means Slangen will be fighting for the title next week. The Scandinavian success in contenders continues and Scands will be involved in all title fight from super-welter to cruiserweight next week! Add to that Abrianna Labianca's come back in super-feather and you realise we have a cracking week to look forward to.

Dr Ekelund Makes it Seven

 at Thursday 31st October, 2002 by tnt
After a weeks holiday Dr Dandryer Ekelund came back to fight for another WT today. The Scandinavian fighter of the month for September was challenged by Gregorski Yastimishov (Pearl Jym) who hasn't won a WT yet but he came to the fight on three fight winning streak.

Both fighters tried to deal some serious damage and they both tired at the same pace. Ekelund was winning the rounds easier and could therefore gain the endurance advantage as Gregorski had to jab to keep up with score. The latter rounds saw both fighters going for points except in the 11th when Ekelund dealed some serious damage instead. This may have been the deciding factor because Gregorski was now slowing down in the last round and Ekelund was up by a point. Gregorski tried to jab hoping he had done enough to impress the judges but he was so tired that he was just punching holes in the sky and Ekelund could avoid getting hit easily. Ekelund therefore won the last round on points and thereby also the fight on a unanimous decision. This was title number seven for him and he takes up the race with ZOO on who is the best Scandinavian fighter at the moment.

Jander Wins on Cuts

 at Thursday 31st October, 2002 by tnt
Anders Jander won his 3rd WT in middleweight after beating Lethal Lee (Kelm). Lee is a veteran with a 45-22-4 (16/11) record and 3 WTs to his name. He didn't have a chance today though as Jander outfought him in every department. Jander took control of endurance, score and even cuts. With a 6-point lead and Lee looking obviously tired the doctor came in and stopped the fight in the 9th round due to Lee's both eyes being swollen shut. A very comprehensive win for Jander who is looking better in each fight.

Stereo Pulls Off Great Win

 at Wednesday 30th October, 2002 by tnt
Gym Parre may not have won a RT yet but has plenty of experience of contenders thanks to snapping up a couple of fighters from other gyms. One of these fighters is Can you hear us pumping on the stereo 33-12-3 (5/4) who has been the most succesful. He had a mountain to climb today as he met the undefeated Main Road Girls (Mochrie) who had a great record of 22-0-1 (8/0). Stereo was the underdog to say the least and the fighters were very different in terms of height as Stereo stood 9 inches taller.

To everyone's surprise it was Stereo who started body-punching while Girls was jabbing with moderate power. Girls went allout to the body in round 2 which meant Stereo could score a knockdown while both fighter took a lot of damage. Girls went back to jabbing with power after that and Stereo started jabbing without any power in his punches and could win the rounds. As the end drew nearer Girls was jabbing like a madman and Stereo tried to go for the head but without result. With score even entering round 12 both jabbed for their lives and Stereo came out on top thanks to his height advantage. The judges all agreed and gave the decision to Stereo with 114-113. A morale boosting win for stereo and a shock defeat for Girls whose pretty record is now all ruined.

Hagbard Better Than Ever

 at Wednesday 30th October, 2002 by tnt
Hagbard Handfaste attempted to win his 3rd WT in super-welter today. His first two were won against flashers and the fights weren't breathtaking really but this week opposition was stiffer. Because standing in the other corner was Flavor Is The Ticket (Konan) who is one of the hottest up 'n' coming fighters in WeBL and rightfully so with his record of 31-3-0 (10/1) coming in to the fight. This would be a real test for Hagbard and the fight didn't disappoint.

Ticket is 8 inches taller so no surprise when he started the fight jabbing from the outside. Hagbard took the first round before switching to inside and hard body-punching. In the third he showed great bravery by switching to allout to the body! The crowd was roaring and loving every minute of the fight now. Hagbard managed to tie a few rounds while allouting but then used different styles to jab a little and get some rounds. He obviously was winning the endurance battle by now but not by that much. Score was tied after round 10 as Ticket got more aggressive as the fight went on. Hagbard goes for the KO in round 11 by allouting again and he gets a stun. Ticket answers by turning to power in the final round but is tricked as Hagbard now jabs aggressively to secure the win on points. This was one of the best fights this reporter has seen in a while and a truly impressive display by Hagbard.

Lore's Roller Coaster Career Going Up

 at Monday 28th October, 2002 by tnt
Lore from Star Trek is the best fighter to come out of the HRulez gym ever. He broke the record last week after defeating Munch McScott (Justin & Cody) and this week he recorded another win. He started his career in the legendary Peekabo gym but left before reaching RT level and has since then been with HRulez. He is a real veteran who started out in week 69 and has since then got a record of 47-32-0 (36/26)! You would think his career would be over by now but the truth is he's still getting better and better. Lately it's been a real roller coaster ride as he first suffered 9 (!!!) straight defeats but is now on 5 straight wins and still going strong.

In today's fight Lore won by way of KO against Oh To Be A Wiganer (Central Park Wigan). Lore clinched all the way but both fighters looked more interested in winning the points rather than the endurance battle. Wiganer scored a 4th round stun and had a two point lead in the 11th when Lore finished him off with a surprising brutal left bomb. The win puts Lore in 7th in the Super-Feather rankings.

Magic Completes Hat-Trick

 at Monday 28th October, 2002 by tnt
Martin Magic today fought Max Briggs (Odin) for the third time in seven weeks. He's won the first two meetings without too much trouble and this week he completed the hat-trick.

Magic clinched and feinted with plenty of hard punching to take the lead on endurance while keeping score close. Briggs managed to stun Magic in the 10th to even the score and it looked as if Briggs might be able to pull off a win after all. However, lowering his defense to get the stun probably cost him more endurance than he could afford and he lost round 11 after some jabbing from both fighters. Last round and Magic continued to jab while Briggs went for a KO but couldn't find the right opportunity and the judges all called it 115-113 to Martin Magic. He is now ranked 2nd in Super-Feather and has never been this close to a WT fight. With retirements and fighters changing divisions it's hard to say if he has any chance of getting a title shot next week, but if he does you can count on reading about it here on Newsflash!

Crawford Leads Anfield's WT Chase

Anfield has gotten tired of his critics moaning about him only winning World Titles with one fighter, David Ellis. The fact that he won 17 titles and is ranked as the 10th best fighter in WeBL history and the best fighter Scandinavia has had doesn't seem enough to convince some people. Since Ellis retirement, Anfield has mostly had fighters in regionals and fought all sorts of tournaments but not set contenders on fire. Well, thís is all history as he now sends a handfull of fighters on a quest for world domination. One of them, Crooks Crawford, fought today after a mighty 6-month retirement. He has a nice 25-3-2 (5/1) record and started his career in Triple B's gym. He then moved to Anfield and has gone 7 fights undefeated there although he's spent most of his time retired.

His big come-back fight was against Lawrence Phillips (Devastation Inc). Crawford was clear favourite before the fight and looked even better than what could be expected. Despite being taller he showed some nice body-punching and had full control of both points and endurance. As icing on the cake he even scored a stun in the early rounds. In the end he got the unanimous decision and Crawford will definately be one to watch for the future. He enters the top-10 in fetherweight and next week looks like he could face stiffer opposition. Hopefully another great fight is waiting around the corner.

It's ZOO Unfair

 at Monday 28th October, 2002 by tnt
For you Aggerud ZOO's WT winning streak came to an abrupt end today as he lost with a second round disqualification. Both fighters fought dirty from the start but it was ZOO's opponent, Slappy Flyweight, that got warned by the ref in the opening round. The Scandinavian fans were furious with the ref and the play-acting of Slappy Flyweight and both needed police escort as they left the arena. Witnesses report seeing ZOO's manager DRoA slashing the tires on the referees car after the fight, the police are investigating the situation.

Anfield wins historic cage match

 at Thursday 24th October, 2002 by tnt
The first ever WeBL cage match between Anfield Road and Old Lyme is over after weeks of exciting fighting in the Lounge forum. Anfield had control of the points throughout the fight while Lyme was busy wearing his opponent down. It looked like a clear win for Anfield but the judges didn't agree. It looked as if Anfield might get robbed after one judge called it a draw but in the end he got the split decision. After being crowned the winner Anfield grabbed the microphone and with tears of joy in his eyes stated: "Thanks go out to all my loyal supporters. You and the rest of WeBl know who you are. I could never have done it without you."
Cheers of "Che Che Che" are still echoing around the arena.

Anders Jander back in business

 at Thursday 24th October, 2002 by tnt
Anders Jander has won one WT but after losing against Acanthus (Gold Gloves) in his title defense he retired for 18 weeks! Most people thought he was gone for good but this week he came back into action to try and retain his middleweight WT belt. Apart from being a former World Champ his CV contains a draw against the legend David Ellis in a WT fight. Jander has also faced current Scandinavian super-welter champ, Hagbard Handfaste, but lost.

His fight today was against flasher Hollywood Ending (Lord Bremen). Flashers seem to be involved in every WT fight these days. This was Ending's fifth attempt at a WT and all previous had failed. Loyal Newsflash readers may remember him from a WT fight against Dr Dandryer Ekelund where he was DQed in round 1. Jander's manager, DRoA, is an expert on beating flashers and he proved it again today. Ending went allout from the start but failed miserably as Jander knocked him out easily to win his second title. A nice win for Jander in his come-back but also a win for B.A.R.F.

Handfaste extends undefeated streak

 at Wednesday 23rd October, 2002 by tnt
Hagbard Handfaste defended his super-welter belt against Future Mitsu (Lord Bremen) today. The flasher, Mitsu, had no chance. He looked like a raging bull as he went allout in round one. However, Handfaste tamed him like a Spanish bullfighter and knocked him out after less than 2 minutes. The win means that he now has two WTs and is currently on a 5 fight undefeated streak with 3 of those fights being at WT level.

Magic Bruised but Victorious

 at Monday 21st October, 2002 by tnt
Martin Magic's quest for a WT marches on and after two straight defeats he got to fight Agent 006 Red (The Boondock Saints). Red had 21 losses on his record before the fight so it looked like it would be a walk in the park for talented Magic. Things looked promising early on as Red body-punched while Magic was using plenty of power but still winning the points comfortably. Red had to start jabbing to get back and while doing this Magic could wear him down succesfully. Round 7 saw Red resting and Magic took full advantage by going for the body with very hard punching. Red was now obviously tired and Magic wasn't even breaking sweat. Red now went for the head and stunned magic in the ninth and was causing lots of cuts on Magic's pretty face. It looked like Magic had lowered his defense too much but despite of the cuts Red couldn't get the stuns he needed, so Magic could get away with the points. A comfortable unanimous decision in the end but the last rounds looked a little shaky and there was always the danger that the doctor could have stopped the fight because of Magic's cuts. Thankfully he didn't and Magic is now one step closer to the WT. Looking at the rankings it could be a very difficult fight next week but hopefully Magic will rise to the occasion.

ZOOperb!

 at Monday 21st October, 2002 by tnt
For you Aggerud ZOO stepped in to the ring today to defend his bantamweight WT against Scumpton Man (Coxy's Crunchatorium). Scumpton Man returns to action after a few weeks of retirement and with a 37-8-1 (18/3) record and 6 WTs to his name he is definately a worthy opponent for ZOO. Scumpton Man has beaten som excellent opponents in the past and he is the only one who has beaten Mochrie's living legend The Clangers in a WT fight. Also interesting in this fight is that it is between Scand and UKS so a chance for DRoA to restore some pride for Scandinavia.

ZOO clinched with power while Scumpton Man used his 2" height-advantage by fighting from the outside. ZOO fought dirty and was warned in the second as he was pounding his opponents body. Apart from that round both looked more interested in points than endurance and they did their best to outscore the other. The brit controlled the points but was tiring slightly faster. ZOO gets a point deducted in round 10 but is now jabbing aggresively with no power and gets the draw in that round. He goes on to win round 11 to make it all even as the bell rings for the last round. Scumpton Man tries to get at least a stun by counter-punching for the head. ZOO is jabbing very aggresively but still manages to defend himself fom Scumpton's powerful head-shots and takes the round on points. One judge calls it a draw but the other two give it by one point to ZOO which means he wins his 8th WT!

WeBL was wrong!

 at Monday 21st October, 2002 by HRulez
The WeBL staff decided to delay sundays fights, the reason for this was the titlefight in Super-Flyweight (Scand). It apparantly looked like a fair matchup, but the staff knew that MrSchedulerGiveMeMytho6 was in serious trouble. Tnt - the Nomad, is not a guy to mess around with!

And when looking at the success tnt - the newbie troop have had sissy's, then what cant happen with a serious slugger under his management.

The WeBL Staff then wanted to look into this fight, and therefore delayed all fights in Fly and Super-Fly. But finally they decided to let the fights go on, also the mentioned titlefight!

Boy, WeBL Staff was wrong, the reporter at Newsflash havent ever seen a decision called this bad! The fight should have been cancelled. The Nomad practically ended MSGMM6's carreer with a TKO in 11th while he was pounding away on MSGMM6's body!

The word from the hospital is that MSGMM6 just got out from his coma, but he has gotten several hundred points of permanent damage...

tnt - The Nomad is looking extremely strong, we are gonna here a lot more from him.

WT Fight Schedule - Week 151

Wednesday (Super-Welter): Hagbard Handfaste (SMH) vs Future Mitsu (Lord Bremen)

Thursday (Middle): Anders Jander (DRoA) vs Hollywood Ending (Lord Bremen)

They think it's all over... it is now!

 at Sunday 20th October, 2002 by tnt
Foxxx vs Dave Black (Heavy)
Black had the chance to win the tournament for the UK South team if he beat Foxxx on Saturday. Last weeks fight ended with 2nd round KO win for Black after Foxxx failed an allout attempt. This time Black fought with power and Foxxx without. They took turns in winning rounds and it was close endurance wise as well. In the 8th Foxxx goes for the allout but Black is prepared and gets the KO win.

Dave Black's point means that UK South now lead 9-4 after two weeks of fighting and can be crowned winners of the tournament.

Scand vs UKS, Weeks 2 Day 6

 at Friday 18th October, 2002 by tnt
Vinterviken vs Gidion (Light-Heavy)
Gidion went for an early KO attempt by counter-punching but failed. Instead it turned into a jabbing contest and as Gidion was more succesful VvFC allouted round after round but without any result. Gidion could untroubled take home the unanimous decision and a point for UKS.

Bonk vs Porkpie (Cruiser)
Both fighters use plenty of power early on but Porkpie gets the lead on both points and endurance. As Bonk turns more to his jab to get back on the scorecard Porkpie is tiring him fast. Bonk was slowing down and Porkpie grabbing a water bottle after round 8 and Bonk couldn't kepp up anymore. Porkpie could stun him in two consecutive rounds before ending his misery with a KO. 2-0 to Porkpie.

It's now 8-4 to UKS who need to win just one more match-up to secure the tournament victory. It could be all over tomorrow if Dave Black can beat Foxxx in heavies.

Scand vs UKS, Week 2 Day 5

 at Friday 18th October, 2002 by tnt
Stockholm Fighters vs Young Young & Scott (Middle)
YYS dominated last weeks fight with knockdowns in all rounds leading up to a KO win. This time he started with a stun but SF could then handle his hardpunching opponent. Both fought hard early on with YYS taking the point lead and SF winning the endurance battle. SF had problems getting the points towards the end and when he changed to inside he got stunned and YYS enjoyed the luxury of just covering up in the last round. 2-0 to YYS and a point to UKS.

Magnificent Slaughterhouse vs Royal Tenenbaums (Super-Middle)
Last week RT went for an unexpected covering up tactic which resulted in no rounds won and boos and jeers from the crowd. This weeks fight took place in an empty arena with only the three judges watching the fight. RT shocked his opponent by actually fighting this time and the start was close. Both used plenty of power but RT was relying slightly more on his jabs to win rounds. As the end drew nearer both started jabbing more and more but it was always RT who had the command. The judges were very impressed and handed him the unanimous decision which means this match-up is tied at 1-1.

6-4 to UKS now and they could win the tournament if they win the 3 remaining fights of this week.

Dandryer Ekelund on Top of the World

 at Thursday 17th October, 2002 by tnt
DRoA's Dr Dandryer Ekelund today won is 4th consecutive WT and 6th overall. The Scandinavian fighter of the month of September was confident beforehand as he was facing Frady Koo (DOD) who is a flasher that he had beaten twice before. The fight went smoothly as Koo jabbed early on then rested before attempting a 6th round allout. Ekelund had no problems defending himself though and could KO Koo after 2:32. Ekelund is showing great form at the moment and it will take more than a flasher to stop him from retaining the title next week.

Scand vs UKS, Week 2 Day 4

 at Wednesday 16th October, 2002 by tnt
SMH vs Goodison (Welter)
Goodison dominated the endurance battle last week so SMH was concentrating on power early on while Goodison looked more interested in winning the rounds. It seemed like a good decision by SMH because endurance was close now and he even had a slight lead. Goodison gets a stun on SMH in the 9th which means a two point lead with three rounds to go. He then starts jabbing and looks to have it all tied up sfter winning round 10. However, the last two rounds SMH jabs to vistory and Goodison gets a point deducted in both! What a dramatic and unexpected ending, the match-up is now tied at 1-1 and a third fight will decide who takes the point.

Rotmo vs Norfolk (Super-Welter)
Rotmo won the first fight and took command of the second by winning the first couple of rounds. Norfolk came back and score was kept close as both fighters jabbed like crazy. Score is even heading into round 9 and Norfolk now turns to counter-punching to the head but without any result. He tries again in round 10 but Rotmo is now expecting it and going for the KO himself. Rotmo lands a devestating blow to the head after 2:14 and is victorious. Another Scandinavian point is secured.

The score is now 5-4 to UKS with 3 fights to be decided in the third week. Scandinavia are on a roll right now but still need some wins in the remainder of the week to really put some pressure on UKS.

Handfaste Wins First WT

 at Wednesday 16th October, 2002 by tnt
Hagbard Handfaste (SMH) returned to the ring today after drawing with Dr Dandryer Ekelund in the Middleweight WT-fight last week. He had lost some weight and moved down to super-welter where the challenger was flasher I dont see how this could work but it mi (ArchAngels). Mi jabbed in the first round but still lost it and then went for an allout attack in the second. Handfaste wasn't troubled by this instead he threw som wicked body punches until Mi couldn't defend himself anymore. The referee ended his misery with a TKO decision and Handfaste took the WT belt. His manager SMH will be delighted with this as it is the veteran's first WT ever!

Tomorrow Dr Dandryer Ekelund has the chance to win the third Scandinavian WT this week.

Scand vs UKS, Week 2 Day 3

 at Tuesday 15th October, 2002 by tnt
Anfield vs Perfecto (Light)
Anfield won the first fight by a late DQ. Both are the same height so it's a very interesting match-up. After winning one round each Anfield tried to get the KO for two rounds but failed. He jabbed his way back to equal score and now Perfecto tried and failed going for the head. With a 1-point lead Anfield now went for the allout and was rewarded. 2:45 into the 8th it was all over, Anfield wins by KO and takes the point for his team.

Hoops vs Milly (Super-Light)
Milly started inside with hard power-punching but then looked more interested in points and grabbed an early lead. Hoops Started with counter but switched to outside as he was losing rounds. In round 6 Milly has a 1-point lead and is going inside for the head as if he were protecting himself from a KO attempt by Hoops. Hoops is counter-punching looking for KO and gets it! After a mighty left cross from Hoops Milly comes crashing to the canvas and doesn't get up. This means 2-0 to Hoops and another point to the vikings from Scandinavia.

The score is now 5-3 to UKS with 2 fights still to be decided with a third fight.

Scand vs UKS, Week 2 Day 2

 at Tuesday 15th October, 2002 by tnt
AZE vs Winter (Bantam)
First fight ended in a draw so this one is wide open. AZE went for a 1st round KO attempt using counter-punching but failed. So instead he turned to some serious jabbing and both fighter did what they could to outscore the other. It looked like Winter had won the fight with a 1 point margin but just like last week the judges had fallen asleep and after the roll of a dice they gave it to AZE. AZE only needs a draw from the last fight to win this match-up now.

DRoA vs Carlos Controle (Super-bantam)
DRoA showed good speed here and took a clear point lead right from the start. Carlos couldn't keep up and couple of late round allout attempts only resulted in himself getting stunned. DRoA wins 2-0 and wins the first point for the Scandinavia team.

Borge vs Jr Jnr (Feather)
Lots of power in this fight as Jr won the points at the expense of slightly trailing in endurance early on. Jr won rounds 8 and 9 with aggressive jabbing and Borge tries to allout. A good call but unfortunately a round too late as Jr is ready for and scores a knockdown in round 10 before winning on KO in the 11th. Jr wins 2-0 and UKS get a point.

Martins AF vs A-Team (Super-Feather)
Both fighters started outside and flirted with the judges by jabbing. Some with a little power and some without. A-Team had the lead throughout and things looked bad for the Scandinavian team captain as he was 3 points down with rounds to go. He had to look for a knockdown to win this now but A-Team rested in the 10th so Martin won it on points. In the 11th he tries an allout and gets the all important knockdown. All even before round 12 and Martin now goes inside for the head while A-Team continues to jab. A-Team gets stunned and all judges gives the win to Martin. This match is know a 1-1 draw and Newsflash gives it the "most exciting fight of the tournament so far" award. Expect another thriller next week.

The score is now 5-1 to UK South. It takes at least 9 points for either side to win the tournament.

Scand vs UKS, Week 2 Day 1

 at Tuesday 15th October, 2002 by tnt
Pym vs Kramer (Straw)
Kramer clinched and Pym used outside and both used a fair share of power. Kramer looked stronger and could take an early lead on both points and endurance. Pym swapped to counter-punching in the mid-rounds but it didn't work out too well for him. He looked more and more tired and had problems keeping up with points. It all ended with a 10th round KO as Pym was forced to lower defense while being obviously tired. This means Kramer takes the point from this match-up.

Parre vs Daisy (Junior fly)
Parre fought from the outside to utilise his 7" height-advantage. Daisy went inside with hard body-punching. In the second round Parre went for the KO with counter but Daisy managed to get up after a 6-count and in the third he survived with a stun. Parre had to lower his defense as he tried to get the KO and he was tiring quickly because of it. He had to rest a couple of rounds but still had the point lead heading into the ninth when disaster struck! The doctor wouldn't let Parre continue because of a gash below his right eye. It's now obvious which region is paying the doctors' wages in this tournament... daisy takes the point from this match-up.

HRulez vs Coxy (Fly)
Both fighters try to outscore each other here rather than focusing on damage. HRulez scored a stun in the 5th but when Coxy got a knockdown in the 10th and then jabbed his way to winning the 11th he secured the unanimous decision. Coxy wins 2-0 and gets a point to the UKS team.

Black Metal vs Sammy (Super fly)
BM used the same tactics and last week and Sammy could ease his way to a KO win. 2-0 to Sammy and another point for UKS.

All four lowest weight classes have now been decided after only two fights and UKS take a 4-0 lead in the tournament.

Magic Unlucky Again

 at Monday 14th October, 2002 by tnt
Martin Magic's quest for a WT fight has suffered a few hick-ups lately. After losing last week against DQ he fought Crazy Ike (Scrapiron) today and was unfortunate to lose on a majority decision. Magic had a 4" height advantage but instead of counter-punching with power like we have seen before he went outside without power. This was very succesful early on as he won the rounds comfortably and didn't take too much damage from his slugging opponent. From round 7 Crazy Ike started jabbing aggressively and made the score all even with only one round remaining. This is a nighmare for any fighter and this is where it was all decided as Magic jabbed aggressively while Henchman had swithed to inside and looking for head shots. Henchman scored a stun and was thereby handed the win by the judges. Magic could get a rematch as soon as next week.

ZOO Wins 7th WT

 at Monday 14th October, 2002 by tnt
For you Aggerud ZOO is probably the best fighter in Scandinavia right now. Today he won title number 7 after beating four time champ Henchman6 (No Quarter2). Both fighters danced around the ring using plenty of power in the opening rounds. ZOO showed his class by both commanding score and not tiring more than his opponent. In the late rounds Henchman was forced to open up while ZOO was body punching. This meant Henchman was slowing down after the fight and with plenty of cuts and bruises while ZOO remained standing. All judges gave the fight to ZOO who is looking stronger than ever. His record is now 40-8-2 (16/4).

Scand vs UKS Day 7

 at Saturday 12th October, 2002 by tnt
Foxxx vs Dave Black (Heavy)
Both fighters are 7'1" giants with Foxxx weighing in at 246lbs and Black at 237lbs. Both went for low power slapping in round 1 with both going outside. Black won the round on points at this really pissed Foxxx off so he went allout in round 2. Unfortunately Dave Black had switched to ring and was ready for the attack. After two 9-counts Foxxx went down for good after less than two minutes.

It's been a bad week for Scandinavia and the pressure is really on as the second week of the tournament kicks off tomorrow. All four fights on Sunday have UKS in a 1-0 lead.

Scand vs UKS Day 6

 at Saturday 12th October, 2002 by tnt
Vinterviken vs Gidion (Light Heavy)
Both fighters 6'4". Vinterviken fought with power while Gidion slapped sissystyle and with relatively high aggression. Gidion could comfortably win the 8 first rounds on points and then cover up Royal Tenenbaum-style to secure the win.

Bonk vs Porkpie (Cruiser)
Both fighters started clinching and showed some hard power punching. Porkpie controlled the score although it was close and could also tire is opponent more succesfully. Porkpie had a 3 point lead after the 10th and Bonk now went for the head from the inside. This resulted in a stun on Porkpie in the 11th. Bonk needed at least a knockdown now but instead it was he who got stunned and the unanimous decision went to Porkpie.

Cage Match Reaches Half Way Mark

 at Friday 11th October, 2002 by tnt

Slangen Lost After Anti-Climax

 at Friday 11th October, 2002 by tnt
DRoA's Ola Slangen Danielsson had his first WT fight today as he stepped into the ring to try and take the title away from Taste Plus Value (Konan). The fight lasted only 10 seconds before the referee disqualified Slangen after a head butt. Taste Plus Value has now won the cruiser WT 6 weeks in a row.

Scandinavian WT-thriller

 at Thursday 10th October, 2002 by tnt
The much anticipated WT fight in middleweight between reigning champ Dr Dandryer Ekelund and Hagbard Handfaste took place today and it turned out to be a real thriller. Both fighters fought hard early on and took turns in winning rounds. Ekelund seemed to cause slightly more damage and Handfaste had to work harder to win his rounds. It wasn't until round 9 that Ekelund started jabbing to win rounds and the fight was all tied heading in to round 10. At this point Ekelund goes for the head but it's actually Handfaste who manages to stun his opponent. Round 11 goes to Ekelund on points and in the final round Handfaste lowers his defense too much and he gets stunned. The commentator thought Ekelund had won but the judges announce a draw, in any case Ekelund retains the title. Handfaste was exhausted afterwards and had plenty of cuts and bruises. This won't stop him from coming back though and there could be a rematch next week.

Scand vs UKS day 5

 at Thursday 10th October, 2002 by tnt
Stockholm Fighters vs Young Young & Scott (Middle)
YYS was counter punching from round 1 and he scored knockdowns and stuns in every round. As SF opted for inside in round 5 it was all over. YYS wins by way of KO.

The Magnificent Slaughterhouse vs The Royal Tenenbaums (Super middle)
This was without a doubt the worst fight of the tournament so far. TMS was clinching and doing his thing but TRT was just running away like a rabbit. He looked scared and he drew a sigh of relief as the bell rang after the 12th round. TMS got the unanimous decision after winning all rounds without breaking sweat. No tickets have been sold to the rematch next week and the organisers don't expect any fans to turn up...

Scand vs UKS day 4

 at Thursday 10th October, 2002 by tnt
Slap Me Hard vs Goodison (Welter)
Both fighters are 5'8" but they displayed different fighting styles. Goodison went with ropes early on while SMH clinched. Both fighter uses hard body punching but Goodison was doing more damage. The fight was even on score after round 11 but endurance wise it was a different story. SMH was exhausted and Goodison was grabbing his water bottle. A stun on SMH in the 12th meant that Goodison won, but one judge thought it was tied.

Rotmo vs Norfolk (Super Welter)
Two different fight approaches here as Norfolk jabbed from the outside while Rotmo was bodypunching from inside. Rotmo managed to steal some rounds on points though and kept the score close. The fight was decided in rounds 9 through 11 as Rotmo was more aggressive and won all three rounds. He could then cover up in the 12th and secure the decision win. Just like in welters one judge considered it a draw.

Scand vs UKS day 3

 at Wednesday 9th October, 2002 by tnt
The trend is continuing, Scandinavia is getting better and better and recorded two wins on day 3 of the tournament.

Anfield vs Perfecto (Light)
Anfield jabbed his way to a comfortable point lead while Perfecto was power-punching. Perfecto got Anfield tired like he was aiming for but he fought dirty which meant he got warned in round 1 and a point deducted in round 9. This point deduction meant that Anfield had secured the point win coming in to round 10 and could sit back and make sure he didn't get KOed. Perfecto wasn't trying to get the KO he was jabbing instead but still got DQed in round 11 after a headbutt. It looked like Anfield was faking the pain in Rivaldo style but nevertheless the fight was over and Anfield stood as winner.

Hoops vs Milly (Super Light)
Hoops has a 5-inch height advantage in this matchup and he switched between counter and outside as could be expected. Milly switched between ring and feint and used power, he also jabbed in a few rounds so he never got a clear endurance advantage. Hoops looked like he was trying to get the KO in some of the early rounds but he didn't even get a stun, instead Milly could run away with the points. Heading in to round 7 Milly had a 4-point lead. Thankfully Hoops started jabbing aggressively and got himself back in the fight. He turned things around and with a 1-point lead in round 12 he switched to counter and could get a knockdown and a stun on Milly and secure the unanimous decision.

ZOO Back With A Bang

 at Tuesday 8th October, 2002 by tnt
DRoA's 6 time World Champ, For You Aggerud ZOO, made his come back today after a seven week rest. He went up against Eyegor (Multigymerz) and showed that he is back in great form. He totally dominated both score and endurance and went for the kill with an 11th round KO as his opponent was slowing down. ZOO still looked fresh at this time, much to the delight of his fans. ZOO will most definately be fighting for a WT next week and judging by this fight, his opponent should be very afraid.

ZOO is not the only fighter from DRoA who is fighting at the very top of contenders. His current World Champ Dr Dandryer Ekelund has a much anticipated WT fight on Thursday against Hagbard Handfaste and Ola Slangen Danielsson fights for the cruiserweight belt on Friday against Taste plus Value (Konan).

Until You Sleep - Scandinavia's no1 Flasher

 at Tuesday 8th October, 2002 by tnt
No Leaf Clover's flasher, Until You Sleep, won his 34th fight today, all on KO of course. It took only two minutes to beat Dr. Zaius (Bucket of Spit) and he is now ranked 7th in Super-Bantam. He now boasts a 34-10-0 (34/10) record and the question is how far can he go? Newsflash was unable to reach B.A.R.F. for a comment.

Martin Magic Beaten

 at Tuesday 8th October, 2002 by tnt
Martin Magic's progress has halted in recent weeks as he has failed to go all the way to the top in contenders. Today he lost on a 12th round KO against E.Z. Rider (DQ). Magic counter punched with power and took command on points while his 4-inch shorter opponent clinched and got the endurance advantage. Martin got tired and when Rider changed to inside he stunned Magic in rounds 9-11 before sealing a KO win in the 12th. Disappointing for Magic but Rider has won a WT and had a 3-AP advantage so nothing to be too upset about.

Scand vs UKS Day 2

 at Monday 7th October, 2002 by tnt
A win and a draw for Scand today so a slight improvement from yesterday but still not good.

AZE vs Winter (Bantam)
A real jabbing war here and with all three judges falling asleep midway through the fight they decided to call it a draw.

DRoA vs Carlos Controle (Super-Bantam)
A tough fight with hard punching early on but DRoA could take the last couple of rounds on points and clinch a unanimous decision win.

Borge vs JrJnr (Feather)
Both fighters tried to get the endurance advantage early on and it was Borge who got the slight advantage. JrJnr had the lead on points but Borge came back well in the latter part of the fight. It all came down to the last two rounds and Jr Jnr ran away with the unanimous decision as he jabbed more aggressively.

Martins AF vs A-Team (Super-Feather)
Both fighters used power punching while trying to win rounds and the score was kept close. A-Team was more succesful in tiring his opponent and this proved to be the deciding factor. Both fighters jabbed aggressively in the closing rounds but Martin was too tired to keep up and A-Team won on a majority decision.

Another tough day for Scandinavia but at least it weas slightly better then yesterday. The trend is Scandinavia is getting better day by day!

Scand vs UKS Day 1

 at Sunday 6th October, 2002 by tnt
The prestigous tournament between Scandinavia and UK South finally kicked off today with fights in the four lowest weight divisions. Here is a review of the action:

PYM vs Kramer (Straw)
Powerpunching from both fighters and score was close early on. Kramer took control of the endurance battle though, and PYM suffered knockdowns in both the last rounds and lost on a unanimous decision.

Parre vs Daisy Age (Junior Fly)
Daisy Age came out with hard body punching and almost got punished in the second round as Parre went for the KO. Parre scored two nine-counts but Daisy Age managed to get up and fight on. Daisy Age could then go on to wear his opponent down and take the points as Parre was forced to rest. In the 11th Daisy Age got the KO win as Parre tried a desperate allout attack.

HRulez vs Coxy (Fly)
A bit of a slapping contest here as both fighters did their best to impress the judges. The score was close throughout the fight and despite Coxy scoring a stun in round 9, HRulez had a one point lead heading in to the last round. Coxy countered and looked for a KO but had to settle for a knockdown which was enough to win him a split decision.

Black Metal vs Sammy (Super-Fly)
BM had a 6-inch height advantage but still fought from the inside throughout the fight. Sammy did likewise and could easily wear down his opponent and win by a comfortable 9th round KO.

A tough start for Scandinavia but fights are best of three and with 13 more divisions to go there is definately no reason to press the panic button yet.

Ekelund vs Handfaste Fight Is On!

 at Saturday 5th October, 2002 by tnt
An all-Scandinavian WT fight will take place next week as 4 times WT holder Dr Dandryer Ekelund is challenged by Hagbard Handfaste for the middleweight belt. This is just like Newsflash speculated earlier this week and a real treat for all Scandinavians. Ekelund must be considered a slight favourite since he is the defending champ but Handfaste showed this week when he beat Lethal Lee (Kelm) that he can beat the best. For Handfaste's manager, SMH, this will be the first chance to win a World Title. Expect a very close and exciting fight!

Ekelund - The Flasher's Worst Nightmare

 at Thursday 3rd October, 2002 by tnt
Dr Dandryer Ekelund (DRoA) is becoming the flasher's public enemy number 1. Today he won his 4th title after beating Lord Bremen's flasher Hollywood Ending. The fighters had met before and it ended with a 1st round DQ for Ending. History repeated itself today and Ending was DQed after 2.59 in the first round.

Last week also saw Ekelund beating a flasher in the form of Frady Koo (DOD). The success over flashers shouldn't surprise anyone as Ekelund´s manager DRoA is the founder of B.A.R.F. (Brotherhood Against Real Flashers).

For the sake of boxing fans Newsflash hopes next week will see a title fight without a flasher so we will get to see more exciting boxing than what has been displayed over the past two weeks. It might actually be an all Scandinavian affair next week as the old veteran Hagbard Handfaste (SMH) has stepped up to second place in the rankings after an impressive win against Lethal Lee (Kelm) today. Newsflash will have the full story on Saturday when Ekelund´s next opponent will be revealed.

What is Martin up to!?

 at Tuesday 1st October, 2002 by HRulez
Newsflash have lately heard rumours on the streets of Copenhagen, Helsinki, Umea, Stockholm and even Aggerud that Martin is up to something...

But what it is still to be found out, as everyone knows there is a little showdown which Martin is the head of (on the Scandinavian side!).... And we must say at Newsflash that he is doing a pretty good job (tho no result has come in yet!).

But then what is the thing he is up to, we here at Newflash thinks Martin is up to something even bigger than this showdown, it actually look like he is gonna revolutionate WeBL with his idea on html in Press-forum! Yep, you heard right, but then is the question.... what is html!? And how do you use it!

Martin Magic Back On Track

 at Monday 30th September, 2002 by tnt
After a disappointing loss last week against Rodney Jones (DQ), Martin Magic today showed that he is a force to be reckoned with. He faced Max Briggs (Odin) who he had beaten before on a unanimous decision, but this time Magic performed even better and sent his fans wild. He did everything right and his hard hitting tactics not only meant he crushed his opponent in the endurance battle but he was also winning the rounds on points.

An 8 point lead heading in to round 11 meant Briggs went for the desperate allout which wasn't the best of ideas since he was exhausted at the time. The KO win for Magic was a fact and how about this for domination:

The Claw requires medical attention from his trainer. He has his left eye closed from swelling. He has bleeding below his right eye.

Magic doesn't need to rest.

Magic is now ranked 4th in Super-Featherweight and two more wins would guarantee a shot for the World Title!

Anfield Road vs Old Lyme

 at Monday 30th September, 2002 by tnt
Anfield Road will be fighting Old Lyme in a 'cage' match. The fight takes place in the lounge forum and is simulated round by round with both's fighter stats revealed. Everyone can watch the fight and take part in the smack. All the relevant info can be found in the lounge forum.

Arriba Hits Back At Old Gym

 at Monday 30th September, 2002 by tnt
Arriba Abajo Al centro Al Dentro started his career in the HRulez gym but in May this year he left and moved to Shortie's Fitness and Improvement Gym. The reasons for this are unclear but an undisclosed source tells Newsflash it was because "Arriba was sick and tired of both manager and fighters suffering from severe alcohol problems". So Shortie's Fitness gym seemed a great place to work out and actually practise boxing rather than drinking.

This week Arriba finally got the chance to get back at his old gym as he faced DoYourStuffHRulez. DYSH came to the fight after a long drinking session and tried to hug his way through the first round. Arriba wasn't interested though and allouted his way to victory. A prestigous win for Arriba who last week lost against HRulez's Take-it-out-on-someone-else.

TMWWTTE Enters Contenders

 at Monday 30th September, 2002 by tnt
The unthinkable has happened! What can only be described as the biggest shock in Scandinavian Heavyweight boxing history is now a fact. TheMythologyWillWinTheTitleEventually (TMWWTTE) has not only won the title but he has also defended it succesfully against Gomer Simpson (Borge).

A 3rd round TKO means that TMWWTTE is now ready to take on the world in contenders. Scandinavia's Heavyweight division is a great personality shorter and the Scandinavia press releases will be fewer. TMWWTTE is gone but not forgotten!

Emma Gets Big Causes Upset

 at Friday 27th September, 2002 by tnt
The pride of the Stockholm Fighters gym, Emma gets Big, today caused a major upset in the Cruiserweight division. Emma faced Central Park Wigan's fighter "Freed" who had an impressive record of 23-0-1 coming in to the fight. Emma had a more modest record of 33-13-1 but he/she has improved a lot lately and only has one loss in contenders.

Emma is 7 inches shorter and looked a lot stronger than Freed who got a beating to remember. Emma knocked him out in the 10th round while winning on points and slaughtering Freed in the endurance battle. Very impressive indeed and Emma will be a fighter to look out for in the future.

Nelson Lambone wins Cruiserweight title

 at Friday 27th September, 2002 by pitypart
In the fourth attempt Nelson Lambone (25-9-0) finally managed to win the title. He easily defeated Dead by Dawn (23-6-0) who looked slow and uncoordinated. Dead by Dawn only barely managed to win rounds even with a much higher punch rate than Lambone. Dead by Dawns inability to mount any real challenge left Lambone free to do whatever he wanted, as he knew he could win any round he wanted. Next week could feature a rematch between the two but Dead by Dawn will have to shape up if he has any dreams of the title.

Dr Dandryer Ekelund Wins 3rd WT

 at Thursday 26th September, 2002 by tnt
The wait is finally over, Scandinavia have a WT holder again and we can thank DRoA and his middleweight champ Dr Dandryer Ekelund for that. Today he won with 5th round KO against Frady Koo (DOD). Koo, who is a flasher, tried to jab in the opening rounds but he couldn't fool Ekelund who anticipated his opponent to go all out in the 5th and was ready for it.

Ekelund could well be facing a flasher again next week, as Lord Bremen's Hollywood Ending is currently ranked second in the division. Hagbard Handfaste from SMH also won today and is now ranked 5th in the world.

Finally Some WT Action

 at Wednesday 25th September, 2002 by tnt
After two weeks without any Scands in WT fights it's finally time again. It's DRoA's two time Champion of the World Dr Dandryer Ekelund who will fight for the belt in middleweight on Thursday. His opponent is reigning champion Frady Koo (DOD) who won his first title last week. Koo is a flasher and Ekelund has beaten him earlier in his career so the Scand will be considered the favourite.

TMWWTTE Shocks Scandinavia

 at Tuesday 24th September, 2002 by tnt
After 65 fights, 5 failed RT fights and countless press releases, TheMythologyWillWinTheTitleEventually (TMWWTTE) from HRulez finally won the heavyweight championship! This actually happened on Saturday but Newsflash, as well as the entire region, has been in such a state of shock that we thought it wasn't true until today.

It was Power Punches Stallone from Stockholm Fighters who had the misfortune to lose to TMWWTTE after a majority decision that really could have gone either way. TMWWTTE looked a right mess after the fight with cuts and swelling all over but nothing could wipe his smile off his face afterwards.

This week he steps in to the ring to defend his belt against Gomer Simpson from gym Borge. If Gomer wins it would mean the first RT for his gym. Newsflash predicts Gomer to win and it will take another 65 fights before TMWWTTE will reach contenders...

NASDAQ drop undermines savings

 at Tuesday 24th September, 2002 by pitypart
As NASDAQ hit a six-year low several Scandinavian pro boxers are starting to worry about their life savings. A number of boxers has put significant amount of money in stocks, which now turns out to be a very bad decision. "I was planning to retire soon, but as it stand I simply cannot afford it", an unnamed pro boxers stated, "I had hoped to retire while I still felt on top of the game, but now it seems like I have to bum around a while just to make a living". Could the current amount of journeymen be a side effect of a stock market in free fall and bad portfolio management? Some boxers are looking into lawsuits against their financial advisors, which in many cases is the same people that act as their day-to-day managers.

Martin Magic Suffers Set-Back

 at Monday 23rd September, 2002 by tnt
After an 11 fight win streak in contenders Martin Magic today suffered his first defeat since May 13th.

He was up against Rodney Jones from DQ and it proved to be a very close and good fight from both fighters. Magic took the initiative early on and managed to win rounds and still keep the endurance battle very close.

With the fight all even heading in to round 10 both fighters abondoned their body punching and started jabbing in a desperate attempt to impress the judges. At this stage Jones had a slight endurance advantage and maybe that was the key to him winning the last couple of rounds and taking the unanimous decision.

Despite the loss Magic still performed well and we look forward to seeing him fight next week when he could get a rematch with Max Briggs who he beat last week.

Jules Rimet gracious in defeat

 at Sunday 22nd September, 2002 by pitypart
Jules Rimet acknowledged the loss after the 12 round split decision against tnt-Fashion Victim in the Super flyweight title fight. It proved to be a very close fight with both fighters working hard to earn the decision. tnt-Fashion Victim won the fight by flooring Jules Rimet in the last round as Rimet was trying to slap his way to the decision and was caught by surprise by Fashion Victims sudden use of power. The fight ended in a split decision as Judge Lao Mang Chen scored the fight for Rimet, who at the post-fight press conference stated: "He should be shot for that". Rimet also expressed the wish of a rematch at a later time in Contenders and sounded focused to make it a quick trip there.

Super-Middleweight News

 at Thursday 19th September, 2002 by pitypart
Phrothosloev (6-2-0) defeated Bill "BigBlow" Harris (12-10-0) by decision and got revenge for his loss by KO only a few weeks ago. Phrothosloev looked secure against BigBlow who entered the ring considerably underweigth but was cautious in the end and cruised to the decision instead of going for the KO.
---
Don Rosa (6-2-0) defeated Anna Bella Garcia (6-2-0) by a 4th round DQ following a headbutt. Don Rosa won the first three rounds by a big margin.
---
Slap Peekaboo Hard -Tribute- (7-1-0) added his second KO to his record after disposing of Jesper "the jab" kesson (16-13-0). the jab came into the ring underweight and Slap Peekaboo had no problem to drain everything out of him with cautious use of power while the jab was trying for the KO in vain.
---
A possible next opponent for Slap Peekaboo Hard is the undefeated Saknade Anna (7-0-0) who had little trouble getting the first win by KO against MrSchedulerGiveMeMytho16 (10-7-1) who came charging allout from the start but was put to sleep with a left blow from Saknada Anna.
---
Gannon O`Gadhra (8-0-1), the highest ranked undefeated super-middleweight, earned a victory by KO over Gunnar Gren 020 (9-3-2) in his comeback fight after 10 month in retirement.
---
Berra Benkross (23-7-1) won the title by KO over Aboy Named Stefan (19-4-0) who was leading by a good margin but was unable to withstand Benkross as he came inside and connected with a vicous bomb.

Hagbard Back From Retirement

 at Monday 16th September, 2002 by tnt
Newsflash had a story a couple of weeks ago about Slap Me Hard's veteran fighter Hagbard Handfaste who retired despite having a chance to get scheduled for a WT fight.

Well, now he's back in business and has got himself a fight against Lord Bremen's flasher Hollywood Ending. The fight is just below WT status and the winner is almost guaranteed a shot at the middleweight WT.

Hagbard's high age (49 fights) means he picks his opponents carefully and has needed a rest inbetween fights to be able to compete at the highest level. His manager is confident that facing a flasher is the ideal opponent and Hagbard has beaten Hollywood Ending earlier in his career.

Hollywood Ending last week lost the title fight against Kelm's Lethal Lee and rarely takes a fight beyond the first round.

The Cruiserweight Clash: Showdown

 at Monday 16th September, 2002 by pitypart
This week the Cruiserweight title fight is billed "The Cruiserweight Clash: Showdown". The fight is between the reigning champ Edward "- The Riddler -" Nygma of Vinterviken Fight Club and the last fighter to defeat him: Nelson Lambone of the Loser gym (formerly known as Hoops). In their last fight Le Grand Danois managed The Riddler and after a two-month layoff following the loss he joined Vinterviken where he has been unstoppable in his last six fights, including a dominant win in the fight where he captured the title. Nelson Lambone on the other hand has lost twice since their last meeting, both times in title fights by unanimous decision. It has to be told that Nelson Lambone has fought by far the toughest opposition compared to The Riddler. Will Nelson Lambone dethrone The Riddler and make it two to nothing in their fights and take the title in his third attempt or will The Riddler get revenge under his new management? The stage is set for the Showdown!

Martin Magic Marches On

 at Monday 16th September, 2002 by tnt
Scandinavia's up and coming star Martin Magic marched on to his 11th consecutive win in contenders today.

His opponent, Max Briggs from the Odin gym, could do little to stop Magic as he looked to be both stronger and faster and controlled the fight throughout the 12 rounds. This meant he comfortably got the unanimous decsision from the judges.

Magic is now ranked 5th in Super-Feather and he is likely to face a fighter from Kelm's or DQ's gym next week. In any case it will be a difficult fight but nothing has stopped him so far. Newsflash will be covering the fight next week as well.

The Hun continues KO streak

 at Friday 13th September, 2002 by pitypart
Fred 'The Hun' Gunn added his third KO in a row as he defeated Speedy Gonzalez XI by KO for the second time in a month. The fight went just like the last time they met with the only difference being The Hun ending the show one round faster. After having beaten three journeymen convincingly the fans are now starting to raise claims for better opposition for The Hun and Fred 'The Hun' Gunn himself has expressed a wish for tougher fights. His wish could come true next week as his rank in the super-middleweight division has put him in the same place as a group of fighters with only 1 or two losses to their name and is being managed by some of Scandinavia’s better managers.

Spotlight interviewer wanted

 at Wednesday 11th September, 2002 by pitypart
NewsFlash is currently seeking an interviewer interested in resurrecting the Spotlight interviews. The job comes with a bit of responsibility as the interviewer will be working alone and won’t have anyone but the entire region nagging him to get the things done, but also allows for individual planning of how often the interviews is to be conducted. The job also brings along the great privilege of talking to some of the managers in the finest region of WeBL and help the rest of the region learn more about each other. Applications and expressions of interest can be sent to PityPart.

Martin Magic Shows Promise

 at Tuesday 10th September, 2002 by tnt
Martin Magic, from Martin's Average Fighters, today warned the current Super Featherweight champ that he was expecting to have the WT within a few weeks.

Although it is still a few weeks away before we know if he can back his smack he sure looks to have the potential. He is currently on a 13 fight winning streak and hasn't lost in contenders yet.

With a record of 28-4-1 (5/1) and his current winning streak he must be considered as one of the best up and coming Scandinavian fighters at this time.

Newsflash will follow Magic's progression closely in the next couple of weeks to see if his battle for world domination will succeed.

Vikings gathering to plunder and humiliate UK South

 at Monday 9th September, 2002 by pitypart
A vicious group of Scandinavian Vikings lead by Martins Average Fighters are currently rallying and is making the first preparations to defeat UK South and bring even more pride of honour to Scandinavia. The team is growing stronger day by day and interested managers are invited to join in the fun. Anyone up for a good deal of pillaging, plundering and generally beating up the misfits from UK South is to report in the Scandinavian Forum or directly to Martins Average Fighters.

SMH Closing in on WT

 at Monday 9th September, 2002 by tnt
WT fights with Scandinavian Fighters have become fewer and fewer over the last weeks and the fact is none are scheduled for next week.

However, it could have been different if Slap Me Hard hadn't retired his fighter Hagbard Handfaste. He is currently ranked 3rd in middleweight but would've gotten a WT fight against Kelm's Lethal Lee due to the guy ranked second changing weight division.

Hagbard has been around since week 68 and due to his age SMH has opted to turn down the chance for a WT fight. Hagbard hasn't retired for good though so he could still become the first WT winner in the SMH gym. When that will be remains to be seen.

Peekabo blah´s streak ends

 at Saturday 7th September, 2002 by tnt
After a hat-trick of WTs for Bonk´s Peekabo blah the winning streak ended today. Konan´s Taste Plus Value got away with a split decision.

The fight never reached the entertainment level of blah´s previous WT fights as it was a lot about jabbing and less about stunning.

Sadly this means no Scandinavian WTs this week and no WT fights have been scheduled for next week.

Darby "Special Forces" McRanger seeking pastures new

 at Thursday 5th September, 2002 by pitypart
After a bumpy career after joining Hoops Darby "Special Forces" McRanger has expressed interest in joining another manager to get a new challenge. Under Hoops' management Darby fought for the welterweight title five times resulting in four losses by KO and only one victory. To his defence Darby McRanger fought some of the best opposition available in those fights and as such they are not an accurate image of his abilities. Interested managers who wish to take Darby "Special Forces" McRanger into their stable can contact Hoops who has indicated that Darby is out of contact and will be allowed to move as soon as he has settled his personal terms.

WT Fight Schedule week 144

 at Sunday 1st September, 2002 by tnt
Only one WT fight this week and it's Peekabo blah who will try to win his 4th consecutive WT in cruiser. This week's fight is a rematch between him and Taste Plus Value from the Konan gym.

Last time they battled it out in the ring it ended with a draw so it has the makings of a good close fight this time around also.

Bonk Completes Hat-Trick

 at Friday 30th August, 2002 by tnt
Peekabo blah slaughtered another opponent today in the Cruiserweight WT fight. For the 3rd consecutive week blah holds the title and this week it was Scrumpton from Coxy's Crunchatoriom that got torn to bits.

Scumpton had the point advantage throughout the fight and in the 8th blah responded with an allout that resulted in a stun. After that blah kept going inside looking for the KO and he achieved it in round 11.

Bonk's fighter sure has impressed and just look what his 3 WT fights opponents have looked like after the fight:

WT 1: Guts can't remember which corner is his. He has bleeding over his right eye. He has a bloody lip.

WT 2: Value grabs a water bottle and rests on his stool. He has his left eye closed from swelling. He has his right eye closed from swelling. He has bleeding below his right eye. He has bleeding over his left eye. He has a gash over his right eye.

WT 3: Scumpton SM is slowing down. He has his left eye closed from swelling. He has his right eye closed from swelling. He has a serious cut below his left eye. He has a cut below his right eye. He has a serious cut over his left eye. He has a gash over his right eye. He has a broken nose.

You have to wonder if anyone will volutarily get in the ring against him next week after these displays.

Week 143 WT Schedule

 at Sunday 25th August, 2002 by tnt
Last week only resulted in one WT with Bonk saving the Scandinavian blushes. Bonk is back in business this week together with AFC and PityPart:

Tuesday (Light): Zak McKracken (PityPart) vs Stuka Sharpe (Bucket of Spit)

Wedenesday (Super-Welter): Peter "francoboy" Saaf (AFC) vs IBF Welterweight (Wilkie)

Friday (Cruiser): Peekabo blah (Bonk) vs Scrumpton SM (Morcambe Cannons)

tnt-John Brown: The failure

 at Saturday 24th August, 2002 by pitypart
An odd fighter can be seen at [tnt]-the newbie troop these days. His name is tnt-John Brown and he is, to put it bluntly, a failure. He has fought four fights so far - and won all by KO. A fighter that appears to be unable to win by decision can be nothing but a failiure at [tnt]-the newbie troop where slapper decisions are more common than in an average relationship. tnt-John Brown's next fight is against another undefeated fighter: "Dirty" Harry Badass of Flat Out. Lets do a comparison of the career so far of the two fighters. First lets take tnt-John Brown. The combined record of all opponents: 16-74-1 (10/67)! Can anybody spell "bum-run?" That has to be one of the most pathetic collection of bums fought in the first four fights in quite some time. No wonder he could get KOs when his opponents where held up by their cornermen until the bell rang - and then they let go..*bump* KO! On to mr. Badass: The combined record of all opponents: 15-15-0 (7/8). That's more like it. Granted, it's not too impressive but at least his opponents has won about as many fights by KO as they have lost.

The tnt-John Brown vs. "Dirty" Harry Badass fight takes place this thursday and the current odds on the bum-o-meter is 1-3 in favour of "Dirty" Harry Badass. Who will it be? Will "Dirty" Harry Badass add tnt-John Brown to the list of bums fought and bring the combined record up to 19-16 or will tnt-John Brown improve the horrible record of his opponents ever so slightly?

Bonk does it again

 at Friday 23rd August, 2002 by tnt
It's been a tough week for Scandinavia and up until today no WT fights had been won despite several attempts. But today it was time for Bonk's newly crowned champion Peekaboh Blah to defend his title.

Expectations were high after Blah's demolition of Mud Guts (Kelm) last week. Today it was Taste Plus Value (Konan) who provided the opposition and it proved to be a tougher fight than last week.

Blah had problems keeping up with score in the early stages but slowly worked himself back in to the fight. It looked as if it might be all over in the 9th when Blah went down for a seven count but again Blah got back in the fight and scored two stuns in the closing stages.

All three judges signalled a tie and that meant Blah could keep his belt for another week. Although the score was close throughout the fight, Taste Plus Value looked a right old mess afterwards, with scars and bruises all over, so Blah deserved the title just like last week.

Next Friday Blah will get the chance to complete his hat-trick of WTs but it is unsure who he will face at this time.

The fight that never was

 at Thursday 22nd August, 2002 by pitypart
Scandinavian Pet, Fred 'The Hun' Gunn was to fight Slap Peekaboo Hard -Tribute- in a fight that fans hoped would showcase the best of both boxers. Both fighters brought undefeated records to the ring and with both of them being managed by some of Scandinavia’s finest managers a great fight was to be expected. It just never really started. After 2 minutes and 22 seconds it was all over as The Hun got disqualified for a head butt - the same offence that Slap Peekaboo had committed himself earlier in that round. Neither fighter can be satisfied with the result as it didn't really bring any answer to who was the better man on the day. Slap Peekaboo extended his record to 4-0 while Fred 'The Hun' Gunn will have to bounce back from a record that is now 3-1. With the controversy surrounding the decision in this fight it is unlikely to affect the careers of any of the fighters - only build up the interest in a rematch between the two to settle the score.

tnt-Cowboy from Hell visits old school

 at Monday 19th August, 2002 by pitypart
After winning the Scandinavian middleweight title tnt-Cowboy from Hell paid a visit to the school he used to frequent when he was a kid. The purpose of his visit was to give a speech on following your dreams and never giving up and signing autographs for his fans. tnt-Cowboy from Hell was greeted with standing ovations as he entered the auditorium and had to wait several minutes before the crowd was calmed down enough for him to speak. "The kids are very important to me", tnt-Cowboy from Hell said, "I never excelled in school and was often picked on by the other kids. I was a bit of an outsider so I know how they feel. Life is not always going easy on you, but I want to show them that there is always a way out. It's all about setting up goals and working hard to get there." tnt-Cowboy from Hell will be defending his title against Purples lillebror this Thursday.

HRulez - next WT winner?

 at Friday 16th August, 2002 by tnt
The World Titles are rolling in to the region like never before. Bonk and AFC won their first titles within 10 days and Newsflash is now asking itself: who's next?

It could very well be HRulez next and he could be scheduled for a WT fight as soon as next week. This is because the heavyweight fighter 'Just the son of a preacher boy' is ranked 4th in contenders. This is the fighter that he won in the WICT betting contest and he has since then won one fight in his new gym.

Preacher Boy is a former World Champion with the Voodoo Economics gym and he could well possess the quality to get back on top. Last week he beat a fighter from the Money Talks gym and tomorrow he faces Jacob Jericho from Beast's gym. A win there and a win for foxx's Main Eventer could mean an all Scandinavian heavy WT fight. That is all just speculation at this time though...

Bonk wins first WT

 at Friday 16th August, 2002 by tnt
Last week it was AFC who won his first WT for the gym and this week Bonk followed up with the same achievment. It was a thoroughly deserved win as his fighter, Peekabo Blah, totally dominated his fight agains Kelm's Mud Guts.

Bonk was winning the endurance battle confidently and score was even. On top of this he was dealing out stuns and knockdowns before finally putting an end to Mud Guts' misery with a 12th round KO.

A very impressive display and don't be surprised if Peekabo Blah holds on to his title belt for a while.

Fred 'The Hun' Gunn still undefeated

 at Thursday 15th August, 2002 by pitypart
Just as expected it wasn't much of a fight as Fred 'The Hun' Gunn won his third professional fight by defeating the journeyman Speedy Gonzalez XI. Bringing a record of 6 wins and 12 losses to the ring it had better be a walkover for The Hun. And so it was. Cautious bodypunching from the clinch quickly too the edge off Speedy Gonzalez who fought from inside and The Hun hand no problem wearing him down and setting him up for the brutal finish. After a couple of rounds of showboating, where he could have put an end to an exhausted Speedy Gonzalez's misery pretty much whenever he wanted to, The Hun moved in for the kill. Round 8 was the utter destruction of Speedy Gonzalez that the audience had been waiting for. Fred 'The Hun' Gunn had little trouble finishing the fight with primal brutality and add the first knockout to his record.

Flat Out Again

As if one Flat Out was not enough it now appears that Flat Out is spreading! Not long ago a new gym opened in Sweden. That in itself is not unusual as it happens just about every day. What makes this case special is that the sign above the entrance reads: Flat Out Dead Meat. Who is this manager that has decided to name his gym after one of Scandinavias finest? Is he related to Flat Out? And if so, then why is he opening shop in Sweden? Is it all a publicity stunt from Flat Out to draw attention away from him? Lots of questions but so far no answers..

WT-mania!

 at Saturday 10th August, 2002 by tnt
The Scandinavian region has been taking a bit of a nap during the summer but this week it has come back to life in the best possible way. 5 WT fights were scheduled this week with Scandinavian fighters involved and all 5 of them won!

DRoA kicked the week off in super-bantam and Flat Out's living legend Abrianna LaBianca secured her 10th WT the day after. On Wednesday Aggerud Fight Club brought home the first WT to his gym and DRoA took his second of the week the day after. The amazing week finished off by Foxx's Main Eventer who won back the heavyweight WT.

The region is buzzing again and who knows what next week has in store. 6 Scandinavians have already been scheduled for WT fights for next week and that's with 3 divisions still to be drawn. Rumour has it that Bonk will be fighting his first WT fight in cruisers next week. Stay tuned.

Dear Diary

 at Thursday 8th August, 2002 by pitypart
Today I won my second fight. It even went much easier than the first one. This one wasn't as hard. Not for me anyway, my opponent will probably disagree. I lost pretty much all the first rounds since Anfield kept yelling: "Hit his belly! Hit his belly!". Why he was so fixated at that guys belly I do not know. Still, this meant that I fell behind pretty bad but once again Anfield stepped up and said "Don't worry about it, I've got it covered". What a wierd thing to say considering I was the one inside the ring doing the work while he was outside chatting up the ring girl. So he told me to jab a lot from time to time to win rounds, and it seemed to work as two judges had me as winner. They must have been friends of Anfields since he slipped them a couple of bucks after the fight. He even slipped me a $20 and said I did good (what a cheapscate - I'm worth much more than that!). Bah - sooner or later he'll have to pay up or I'll go join another gym. That Hands of Vecna guy seems to have fighters with character, only they all are either Irish or as dirty as a kid in a mudpit (some even both!). But for now I'll wait and see who the matchmaker puts me up against next.

Gnathach O`Berrin cancelling titlefight?

 at Thursday 8th August, 2002 by pitypart
According to several rumours Gnathach O`Berrin is trying to get out of his titlefight against Wilard Ikoja. Despite having played the act of a tough guy several sources state that he is currently looking for a way out of the fight, the reason being bad experiences in past title fights. The sources say that he is currently looking into the possibility of getting the fight cancelled based on the rule that outlaws Dwarf tossing. This would also explain why Gnathach O`Berrin needed to call a press conference to call Wilard Ikoja a fat dwarf. The fight is currently scheduled to take place on tuesday.

HRulez greatest thing under the sun!

 at Thursday 8th August, 2002 by pitypart
At a recent press conference Hands of Vecna stated that HRulez was the greatest thing under the sun. The reason for this was, as he stated: "you get a majority against me". He further went on to say that "I hardly smack you... even in title fights". He finished off the press conference by thanking HRulez for the attention and left the podium spending no time on answering questions.

The Hun wins again!

 at Thursday 8th August, 2002 by pitypart

Today Fred "the Hun" Gunn added another win to his record as he defeated Slap me blue by majority decision. Slap me blue won the early rounds and build up a good lead while The Hun focused more on working the body than worrying about the score. As the fight went on The Huns bodywork started to show and he kept Slap me blue in check by winning the odd round by use of jabs. Towards the end Slap me blue was slowing down and was unable to keep The Hun from winning just about the rounds he wanted. Because of Slap me blues early lead the fight ended up being a very close affair and nobody was sure of the result as it went to the judges. The Hun was awarded the fight with a 2-0 majority with the last judge calling it a draw, but The Huns harder punches throughout the fight seemed to have tipped the fight in his favour.

Aggerud Fight Club first WT shot!

 at Friday 2nd August, 2002 by tnt
Scandinavians have had a tough couple of weeks with plenty of WT fights being lost lately. But now finally some good news as Aggerud Fight Club has been scheduled for the gym's first WT fight ever!

The fight takes place on Wednesday when AFC's Peter "francoboy" Saaf takes on Pasoa's fighter Pasoa blows a kiss to Silver in the super-welterweight division. Pasoa, who is well known for his inability to win WT fights, is the reigning champion after defeating Team Rebellion in the two previous title fights.

The Scandinavian region is keeping its finger's crossed!


Scandinavia full of ludomaniacs??

 at Thursday 1st August, 2002 by HRulez
Yes, you heard right. Scandinavia is not only winning big in the boxing ring (lately tnt - the newbie troop's 3rd spot in Invitational!), but they are also winning big bucks at the gambling table.

DRoA and HRulez knew about the great potential tnt - the newbie troop possesses. Rumour has it though that they were using insider knowledge, and when our Newsflash reporter confronted the man behind DRoA, his only reply was: "Not now.... how much money should I put on "For you Aggerud ZOO" as the next Super-Bantamweight Champion?? Afterall it didnt cost me much to secure the title on before hand..."

Of course we were outraged to hear about this... but anyway a former heavyweight champion of the world ended up with HRulez and DRoA got a world champion to be.......

Bosse Backstom dismissed at casino!

 at Thursday 1st August, 2002 by pitypart
Recently Bosse Backstom tried to get into the local casino but was dismissed at the entrace. The reason was that all the guests had unanimously voted to keep Bosse Backstom out of the casino since they were frightened that his bad luck would rub off on them. The casino manager tried his best to convince the guest that it would be a good idea to let him in so that he would soak up all the bad luck leaving everybody else as winners. He was, however, unable to do so as everybody thought he was just trying get as much bad luck into the building as possible. Not wanting to risk the turnover from all guests but Bosse Backstom he reluctantly dismissed Bosse.

Dear Diary

 at Monday 29th July, 2002 by pitypart
It's now only about three days until my first fight, and I must admit I'm a bit exited. This whole thing has been an odd experience I can tell you. When Anfield Road offered me the contract he told me that his gym was very good and had several highly skilled fighters, but what do I see at the first training session? A bunch of newbies like myself and a guy named Anfields Is Good On Punchout who is so lazy that he refuse to work more than 3 minutes at a time - tops! Sheesh! Anyway, I seems to have become some kind of celebrity despite never having fought at all! There has been several spectators at the gym pointing fingers saying "It's him!" and I get some odd looks in the streets as well - so I must really be quite good. The Boss seems to have noticed this also since he hired a bunch of guys down at the local bar "to keep me safe in the beginning" he said. Oddly enough they all seem to be about the same weight as I though they are quite short and gorilla-like.

The press conference earlier was odd too. It turns out my first opponent is called Just because I don`t say anything - he doesn't even have a real name! Or so his manager says. My guess is his parents didn't like him - I know I don't. Anyway, he called me sissy boy and though he was really funny. Then up steps this other guy named Slap Peekaboo Hard -Tribute- saying he wanted to fight me - and looking at the fight card for thursday I'm glad his booker isn't working for Anfield Road! His next opponent is disgusting!

But the most scary thing is yet to come: There is this guy named Matt "Gun the Hun" Gunn out to get me! Apparently he must come from some sort of degenerated branch of the family tree as he is quite an ugly bastard. I guess I don't have to worry about him much though as he's fighting one of the Gorillas from the bar. Still, I'm set to go and I'll beat the crap out of anybody Anfield Road put into the other corner..

WT fights this week

 at Monday 22nd July, 2002 by tnt
Two Scandinavians will attempt to make the region proud this week as they go up in World Title fights.

First off it's Zak McKracken who has come back from retirement to try and win his third WT belt. The PityPart fighter is up against Aon from the DAS gym. The fight takes place on Tuesday in the Super-Lightweight division.

On Friday it's time for Ola "Slangen" Danielson from DRoA who is looking to get his first WT belt in the cruiserweight division. Mud Guts from the Kelm gym is the defending champion who he is up against.

The Scandinavian region is collectively keeping its fingers crossed in anticipation.

DRoA takes home Ant Race

 at Sunday 21st July, 2002 by tnt
The prestigous ant race was won by DRoA a couple of weeks ago. His ant, The Aggerud DemonstrANT, took off to contenders with a 14-2-0 record and beat 6 other ants on his way to the top.

Quite impressive and, although none of his ant competitiors will admit it, well deserved.

Where did the good World Champs go?

 at Friday 19th July, 2002 by pitypart
Has anybody looked at who holds the belts at this time? Only about one third of the champs has lost less than 10 fights! Is there no dignity left in the world of WeBL? Will we forever be lost in this laughable world of mediocrity or will a manager emerge from the shadows and bring back the days of real champions? Will he be Scandinavian? As things stand at the moment there is little that foretells a change - next weeks challengers is as bad as the current champs. We can only hope..

Scandinavia coming back to life?

 at Thursday 18th July, 2002 by pitypart
After having gone quite a bit silent during the summer the pace now appears to be picking up. The big question is: Will Scandinavia be back as strong as before the break? Time will tell. Stay tuned for more updates.
