Capitol City Cage Fights II - Nov 4th, 2006 Salem National Guard Armory - Salem, Oregon Review by Steve "Spaniard" Roberts On Saturday November 4, Team Chaos invaded the Salem Oregon Armory for Capital City Cage Fights II. This show is adding up to be a great addition to amateur Mixed Martial Arts in Oregon. The house was jammed packed as fighters and fight teams prepared for action, and Vicious Fight Gear and Gladiator Fight Gear where just a couple of the vendors throwing out free gear, and Northwest Fight Scene Magazine was in full force with the new release of issue one. The show's main event saw Team Chaos's Peter Aspinwall defend and retain his Middleweight title against Shaun Johnson from the Desert Dogs out of Bend Oregon. work some ground game. Johnson was pivoting off the cage with his to avoid being smashed against the cage. Aspinwall landed a couple of hard lefts and was in complete control. Aspinwall eventually sunk a tight arm-bar that Johnson couldn't escape at 1:52 in round one. It seems to be a Desert Dog curse being created in Salem, because Johnson had broken his collar bone on the way down to the mat and the same thing happened to Brian Tyler when he fought Nick Braker. Tyler later vindicated himself at BaseBrawls in Bend Oregon, only time will tell if Johnson can do the same.
Culbertson is undefeated and looks to be a force in the welterweight division. Culbertson beat a very tough and scrappy Charles Bell who came out swinging and actually landed a flush knee that swole Culbertson's eye up a bit. After a failed guillotine attempt Bell was in some serious trouble as Culbertson mounted him and started to rain down punches. Referee Steve Newport stepped in and called the fight by TKO at 1:42 of the first round.
fighter Matt Slosser by unanimous decision. The fight saw a lot of clinch work and some stalling. Referee Steve Newport separated the fighters numerously, and most of the fight was Quinton taking Slosser down. Not much damage was inflicted on either part but in the end Quinton won the unanimous decision because of takedowns and ground control.
Fighter Cody Bras took out Team Chaos fighter Jake McKnight. Round one we saw both fighters going at it until Bras got the take down and almost took McKnight's back, but McKnight went out the back door back to guard and the round was pretty much a draw. Round two we saw Bras sit right into a mount position and McKnight trying to go out the back door again, but this time Bras sunk a tight rear naked choke at 0: 44 of round two to get the win. distance with Independent fighter Corey Hall. These Lightweight fighters went to war, and were in great shape. Jansen stuffed a couple of take downs attempts by Hall and went to work on some original Team Quest ground and pound, but he was unable to finish Hall. Both fighters fought a great fight and in my opinion fought the best fight of the night. But, in the end the judges gave the unanimous decision to Dave Jansen who controlled most of the fight.
RESULTS Eli Williams (Iron Warriors)
