New presentor Colt 45 brought you URCC XII Supremacy at A-venue Events Hall, Makati Avenue, Makati City.  The event that was set on July 5, 2008 highlighted the match between Caloy Baduria and Eduard Folayang (Link: ).  I didn’t have to wait though for the main bout to see live and raw MMA action as all undercards gave a variety of quality combat sport.  I have to say that this was the best set of undercard match-up as almost all fights were finished in round 1.  Besides not hearing the Round 2 bell, fights were completed under 5 minutes except for one which is match number 9 between Justin Cruz and Lino Tagacay.  Justin Cruz remained to be the Bantamweight title holder as Lino finally gave in on Justin’s ankle lock midway in Round 2.

Former Southeast Asian Games Champion Eduardo Folayang who seems to be made out of steel covered with flesh went on a slugfest on Caloy Baduria’s face.  The ring floor was definitely not spared as blood and sweat splattered on the white sheet.  Agony of the fighters was not constrained within the stage as the intimate space of the event area carried the pain to the audience.

It was an exciting event all throughout.  I cannot wait for the next one.  Oh, URCC 13, please come around the bend.  By the way, I have a feeling I’ve met that middleman in the ring sometime before.
