Lou Neglia delivered yet another spectacular show last night. We were treated to a some great subs, brutal knockouts and closely fought decisions. There was also a who's who of the MMA world in attendance, including UFC stars Matt Serra, Frankie Edgar, Jim Miller, Pete Sell and Renzo Gracie. The WEC was also well represented by Miguel Torres, Donald Cerone, Leonard Garcia and Cub Swanson. Even Bellator was in the mix with their undefeated star Lymond Good.
Ring of Combat has produced 32 fighters who have gone on to the UFC. That's something of which promoter Lou Neglia is quite proud. The main event featured a fighter who both Lou and I think will be another UFC star in the future, Gian Villante. Gian, out of the Bellmore Kickboxing Academy, took just 40 seconds to choke out Mike Cook. Mike was a last minute replacement for the very tough Bret Kohan, who suffered a concussion in a car crash. Bret will be back, possibly in April at ROC XXVIV.
Ryan LaFlare, also of Bellmore Kickboxing, won the 170 pound title with a KO of Justin Haskins. Ryan is another rising star in MMA and he's going places.
You can check out the complete results after the jump. I'll have more on this show in a few days.
