Butch Hiles Brazilian Jiu Jitsu & MMA, LLC fighter, Ryan Shank,
improves to 5-0.
Gladiator FC 31 – Results
Here are your results from Saturday night’s event at the Jenkin’s High School. This event ended up with only 7 amateur fights and a pro main event. After speaking with our good friend Butch Hiles it seems that this card was plagued by no show fighters and last minute changes. Originally Matt Garrettson was to fight Ricky Borders in a professional battle but Garretson was suspended by West Virginia for not fighting in an event that didn’t even take place! Wes Lane is still looking for a fight after his scheduled bout failed to take place.
These results have been verified by the Kentucky Boxing and Wrestling Authority. The event was overseen by one of Kentucky’s finest, Mr. Todd Neal.
- Lateef Keeton defeats Ricky Conley, 00:12 Round 1, Submission-Strikes
- Allen Hicks defeats Nicholas Stevens, 2:15 Round 1, Submission-Strikes
- Juan Cortes defeats Thomas Eskew, 2:49 Round 2, Submission- Rear Naked Choke
- Amanda Miller defeats Logan Cline, 1:05 Round 1, Knockout
- Ryan Shank defeats Scott Spicer, 00:47 Round 2, Submission- Rear Naked Choke
- Jerel Dickinson defeats Michael Cockerham, 00:20 Round 2, Submission
- Brandon Hall defeats Alexis Medina, 2:27 Round 1, Submission – Arm Triangle

I have had an idea to have an “Ultimate Cardio Challenge” for our cardio class and anyone in the gym who wanted to try. The reason being, it is important to set goals and see improvements because, “he who stops being better, stops being good.”
We need benchmarks to see our improvements and challenges to make us better. So, we will have a fun, healthy competition, with the purpose to see how far you can push yourself and how much you can improve your results in the future. As most of you know, I am, or was, involved with Crossfit in WV. Crossfit has a very similar concept and we will actually use much of their format as a model for our competition because it’s already a worldwide success. However, ours will be different in the fact that we can actually add martial arts to our programming and we can, and will, use many programs that mixed Martial arts competitors already use.
Overview of What Will Happen
Participants will complete a minimum of three workouts in one day to be crowned the Ultimate Cardio Challenge Champion. Each event will be timed, or involve a formula, to have a winner of each portion of the competition. The Goal will be to have an ultimate winner. However, we will also save individual times and repeat these workouts in a future competition to gauge improvements.
Results (Male) 10/24/11

Don’t miss all the fighters live on the radio tonight. Also, call in to hear why our athletic commission is the worse in the United States. They just suspended a guy who isn’t even a licensed fighter in WV because he trains with the man who made MMA legal in WV!
Don’t miss this one…

Two members of our boxing program signed up for their first amatuer fight on October 15th at the Charleston Civic Center and put on a great show!
Avery Silas won the main event with a great display of boxing skill and Joel lost a close split decision.
Look for them both to be in action soon and possibly this weekend as I hear Joel has every intention to make up for his loss ASAP.
Congrats!
