[ChrisQ]

Another great looking card from Powerplay Promotions.
Best of luck to all involved.

[STANDOVER]

When did eric get two titles be lost his last two fights dosent
make sense

[Kano]

Looks to me as if he only has one and Nicole is holding up the other one in her left hand.

[Hellfighter]

well done Sherlock Kano, well done

[Mr_Macedonia]

Wow, nice card Joe.

Wat governing body is the world title that Sam and Shannon McMahon are fighting for?

[Nader]

Hi Guys, the fight will be sanctioned by the WBF, Sam is the favorite to win but we would not take the fight if we didn't believe we can win this fight. Shannon will be a different fighter this time round and he will be there to fight his heart out as you would expect anyone to if they were fighting for a world title. I will be posting the undercard next week just waiting for confirmation on fighters. tickets through powerplay gym

[DazMon]

Joe the Thai vs Khmer match up is awesome, glad to see these 2 facing each other.
I hope Chantha has been training hard like he use to, it will be an awesome fight and will prob go the distance.
Anyone who use to go to Im's Ancient Battle shows might remember Chantha, he even fought on a Brute Force show. Very fluid style, unpredictable, superfit and celebral fighter.
But Superboy is the one to beat at that weight these days and he's just so effective, with a lot more experience.

[DazMon]

Can I make a suggestion for The Mox; Dane Sky from Spain's in QLD.
(Before Miss Chop does!)
These 2 are next to each other in the ratings, and same score.

[moxon]

i really hope that i get a fight on this card. im looking forward to a big 2010.

i just want to fight and put on a good show for the crowd. and even better when its on a great promotion like power play.and in melbourne with the best and loudest crowds going around."vic is still my home."
thanks for the support guys.
cant wait.

[moxon]

[John Cav]

Nice looking undercard already.

Go the "G Train".

Good to see Mark Mullin fighting also.

[Nader]

Dazmon, superboy vs chantha have got bets going already,
Moxon, how did you go overseas and would love to get on bur unfortunqately this one is full and its nearly sold out mate got 3 tables left out 51.
John Cav the G-TRAIN is ready to go full steam ahead and if your free mate ill get Bushi Stan and yourself to commentate

[Anita]

GOOOO Sarah Howett!!! Do we know who the worthy opponent is yet? ;)

[John Cav]

Thank-you Joe,
Looking forward to it. It's going to be a great night.

[Nader]

Anita, I'm waiting for a reply from Christina Tai who is ranked in the womens boxing.
John Cav, looking forward to seeing u on the night look out for the G-TRAIN mate

[bury57]

Joe, how are ticket sales going and will Generals still be available on the night at the door?

[Nader]

We have sold 43 tables but due to demand we put out another 6 and have sold 4 in 48 hours. we have 2 Tables left. As for seating there is probably 100 tickets left and generals about 200 left. To guarantee a ticket i strongly suggest people ring Powerplay Gym
(03) 9386-7797. with 3 weeks to go i have no doubt it will be a sell out.
We accept credit cards!

[Bushi]

Was chatting with Joe this morning, going to be another huge show, and a HUGE announcement on the night....:p

WATCH THIS SPACE.....

[Hellfighter]

[Bushi]

But I'm sworn to secrecy...

[Hellfighter]

[Nader]

Hi Bushi, good to see that we don't let anything out mate,the surprise is worth the wait got 3 big shows on this year and looking forward to hosting the big guns!!!!! POWERPLAY will host the best shows Melbourne has seen!!! stay tuned Melbourne each show will be bigger this year.

[Bushi]

My lips are sealed Joe....;)

But credit to you in bringing in the best from around the country and the world...

Moonee Valley in 2 weeks will be awesome, some great names & exciting match ups...

[John Cav]

Bushi is a tuff nut to crack, he will not let out a secret :(

Looking forward to the show and the announcement.

Go the "G-Train"

[Nader]

Powerplay Promotions will be holding a press confrence Thursday 4th at Federation square at 1pm there will be a ring set up and you will see "King Sam Soliman" sparring 3 rounds followed by Shannon "The Man" McMahon sparring for 3 rounds. Straight after that the boys will be interviewd by TV and News Paper reporters. Get down there and support the boys and Powerplay Promotions.

[bury57]

is there still plenty of standing (GA) tix available?

[Bushi]

great exposure Joe.

Any chance of getting some of the "kick fighters" on there ??? :D

[Nader]

Bury at the moment there is generals left but to be safe guys get in and order them through the gym. Bushi unforunately no the schedule is tight with the media.

[Nader]

To all you people who have supported Powerplay for past shows and present, we would like to thank you your support it's greatly appreciated. All Tables and seated tickets have been sold an there is only about 100 generals left. Hope you all enjoy the night and as I'm sure it will live up to the standard of another Powerplay Promotions Event.
Remember there will be a Huge announcement to be made on the night which will leave everyone amazed mark my words!!!!!

[chicano]

Great card, will be a cracker of an event.

Jagz taking on Nicole is a huge step up, be very interested to see how she goes. She has come along way in the last couple of years and this is a great opportunity to mix it with the best.

[Hellfighter]

really looking forward to this show... congrats Joe

[brave]

What weight is the chris horne fight at. His normally 63 and rahulla 70?

Should be good. Chris is the one to beat in vic atm.

[Hellfighter]

their fight is at 67

[Bushi]

Looking forward to this when I get back from Thailand, great news that it's sold out in advance....

The announcement will be huge, and the card as it is is great value.

Paris & I are champing at the bit to be there...

[Hellfighter]

Sam Soliman was on Nova FM this morning saying that the title is his and that he will add to it when he fights in the USA also

[Anthony Cav]

At the show now, fantastic fights so far. Rahulla edgeing chris in a thriller and Nicole getting a well deserved win over jagz.

Massive news JWP v Yod later on in the year not sure of exact date here at moonee valley. Gonna be a great fight, can't wait for it myself, but for now it's king v the man about to start

[DazMon]

RESULTS
======

F1 - Boxing 63kg
Sarah Howett (Powerplay) vs Dianne Prazak (Mick Hargraves)
UPD Sarah, she looked so sharp but Dianne was definitely there for the distance, a bit bloodied but fighting till the end.

F2 - Mod Thai 71kg
Marc Gelsi (Powerplay) vs Drew Mackey (Numurkah)
UPD Marc, he looked his usual hard-hitting self but the mod thai rules started to work in Drews favour in round 3. Up till then Drew had suffered a bit of punishment but to his credit turned it around and never went down.

F3 - Full Thai 66kg
Chris Horne (Smullens MT) vs Rohullah Paykari (Don Millar MT)
This was an action-packed bout with Chris working the grapple and elbows, while Rohullah relied on his single punches and low kicks. I think it was UPD or MPD to Rohullah.

F4 - Mod Thai 74kg
Aaron Goodson (Powerplay) vs Jeremy Sloane (Sor.Jaiphet)
Aaron had more than half the crowd behind him, and he did not let them down with a decisive knock down at the start of 2R, Malcolm Bulner calling off the count. Until then Jeremy appeared an awkward fighter to counter plus he was unfazed by Aarons power. I'm predicting big things for Aaron, and Aust title for him by the end of this year is not out of the question.

F5 - Mod Thai 55kg
Nicole Brolan (Don Millar MT) vs Jagdeep Rana (Street Alert NSW)
Nicole was on a mission for the full 5 rounds, going forward and hitting Jags with everything that she could muster, but Jags was tough and had her own counters to fire back, but Nic's resilience was just too much and she won UPD.

F6 - K-1 68kg
Mark Mullan (Paul Fyfield) vs Josh Schumacher (Sunrise S.A.)
Mark started off real well, dropping Josh for an 8 count, but Josh was in for the long run and turned it around after the second round. Mark looked tired and neither fighter was adapting to the K-1 rules too well, both trying to tie each other up making it look a bit scrappy at times. Josh really turned it on in the fifth round but it was not enough in 2 judges eyes and the fight was called a maj draw.

[Bushi]

And Sam The King Soliman is the NEW WORLD BOXING FOUNDATION World Champ, taking the win by 11th round TKO over Shannon The Man McMahon in a tough, but one sided fight.

Action packed night, and as has already been posted, the BIGGEST announcement in Australian Muay Thai was made... Joe Nader, bring to the fans what they want to see,,,,

[DazMon]

Bushi how did the fight end exactly?
I noticed that Shannon only really started to deliver in the sixth round.
Did he wait too long?
Did you have fun?

[Bushi]

TKO Daz, by memory the final one was a body shot, but 2 8 counts in the 11th...(plus a few in earlier rounds)

[Anita]

Well done to Nicole on the win. Well done to Jagz for stepping it up!! :)

[DazMon]

Jagz looked pretty good Anita, bit different to when you fought her. Just seemed different?

[Anita]

Don’t get it Dazmon :)
….Did you ref?

[Nader]

After a big campaign for king vs the man it was a great night of action packed fights once again, congratulations to all you winners. all the runner ups can hold their heads up for a great effort.There is so many names to thank, so would like to start with a big thankyou to all Powerplays staff and helper's and they all now who they are for their commited and great work in putting this show together as well working on the night. to all our VIP people it was Powerplays pleasure having your presence on the night and hope to see you all there on our next show. PARR Vs YODSAENKLAI coming to MELBOURNE can it get bigger than this!! as promised Powerplay will bring you the fights that we all want to see. stayed tuned for more info soon!!

[DazMon]

No I didn't ref on that show.
I'm just saying, Jags was more impressive this show.
She really came to fight, but Nicole was just gunna do her own thing and keep moving forward and put the pressure on.

[Anita]

Didn’t ref DazMon? Slack! haha ;) Good on Jagz and Nic for putting on a show then. The next show sounds awesome already just with Parr V Yod.
