WCF Produces A Gogoplata & Gunfire


The "Hillbilly Heartthrob" and Missouri's own Brad Imes got a gogoplata submission victory at this weekends World Championship Fighting card, "Downtown Throwdown." Hosted by the Target Center (home of the Timberwolves), Imes is only the 3rd man to pull off the difficult submission move along with Nick Diaz and Shinya Aoki. What is most impressive about this is that the guy is a freaking Heavyweight and was able to not only pull off the legendary move, but choke his opponent unconscious. Niiiiice.

Travis Wiuff got a quick TKO win to continue his inconsistent career but raised his record to 47-11. The guy has so much talent but just cannot seem to sustain any momentum for his career.

Sadly the festivities were interrupted by gunfire, though exact details of the incident are still unknown. Rumor is that two men got into a fight at the arena and one shot at the other. Nobody was reportedly hurt and Police say that no one has been arrested, though they have a suspect’s name. The event continued after the gunshot just to prove a little gunfire cannot kill a good time.
