Did you hear? Impact Jiu Jitsu went 3-0 at Rumble at the Roseland 50, on Saturday, March 6, 2010. This was the Full Contact Fight Federation’s (FCFF) sold out 50th anniversary show.
First up, Mike Moreno won in the second round with mount ground and pound, referee stop. Mike showed amazing poise, stretching his game to include a devastating, airborne, running, double leg takedown to mount.
Shaun Mirjavadi, coming off a recent title loss, refocused and fought a very controlled, smart fight. Shaun started off with good initial contact, excellent boxing, and then followed up with a fantastic single leg takedown to cross side control. Shaun fought like a man on a mission, and he got his belt back with a ground and pound referee stop.
Larry Munyon met his toughest opponent yet. His opponent trained with some of the best 205′ers around to get ready for Larry, but it is hard to prepare for a fight with a force of power and determination called Larry. Early in round one, Larry’s nose was bashed and very broken. Undeterred, Larry pushed forward, imposing his game. This was a great fight back and forth with no break in action for three rounds. In the end: unanimous decision, Larry Munyon.
It was a great team effort. Thank you to everyone who came out to support Impact’s fighters. A special thanks to Lee Flores “cut man supreme”, and warm up crew Shaun Ryan, Doug Steinbach, Jason Tubani, and Eric Hemphil.
