Congrats to our fighters that participated in the Bushido Smoker on April 23, 2011. As usual, Hybrid was represented well with great talent and skill from all our fighters!!! We are so proud!!!!!! Thomas started the event working technique and and putting on a show of his personally developed style. He set the bar for the rest of the evening with a jump spinning back kick. The crowd erupted and welcomed our own Kru Lisa into the ring. Lisa decided to fight the minute she walked through the door to help out Bushido’s 16 yr old Erin. She showed unmeasurable sportsman ship and talent by using her hands to set up her feet.  The 7thbout of the night, with Jeff Peterson, was three rounds of the clinch. Jeff’s defence was on point but taught us all that using your corners as an offensive tool is just as important as defence in any fight. Vincent was the co-main event of the evening and set us up for the final fight with a display of poise. Vinny searched for every shot and showed us just how good a fighter can be at anticipating an opponents next move. The main event of the evening was a show of pro’s; heavy hands, sweeps, and a vicious clinch (which involved a few groin shots) and a an unstoppable determination. Well done Buckner, well done.

On April 16th, 2011 Ajarn Buck taught a very succesful sparring seminar! The graduates of this course learnes to safely and effectively spar the jab, cross. hooks, foot jab and round kick!! Everyone put in a lot of hard work and did a great job!!!!

Congratulations to:

Brendan Banks, Shameek Delancey, Sean Parks, Gerald Meuse, James McKenna, Mike Adkins, Melissa Torres, Aaron Mitchell, and Shannon Chao!!!!!
