Casper, Wyoming treated to fights in a cage at Kick Down 44.
The Denver, Colorado based Kick Down fight promotion known for being one of the last in the region for staying loyal to the traditional boxing ring chose to try out a six sided cage for the first time in it's history and the fans witnessed a standing room only event and 12 exciting bouts, three title fights and the fight of the night where two 16 year old fighters literally stole the show with skill, presence of mind, athleticism, and sheer determination in an MMA bout that when concluded left the fans standing in awe with an ovation perhaps never seen at a Kick Down event. Blaze Schubert and Kelhin Roszel, both 16 years of age were cornered and trained by their fathers which added to the match between the two younger fighters. The fight went to a decision where both displayed excellent ground technique, work from the clinch, striking, and ability that some never attain in the sport much less at age 16. In the end Blaze Schubert won a unanimous decision and both fighters won the hearts of the fans and their families as they displayed everything a promoter and fan would want as a display of what the future in mixed martial arts will look like. At the conclusion of the bout both fighters were interviewed and both thanked God, their trainers, fans, family members, as the crowd stood and applauded a very touching moment when both commended one another and walked out of the cage leaving the Casper, Wyoming fans hungry for more which was exactly what they got.
Sean Ogle defeated Chris Saucedo to retain his Light Heavyweight title and Sebastian Puente remained unbeaten as he weathered a furious striking attack by Bud Lawson in the opening moments of round 1 to end the fight at 34 seconds of the 2nd round due to strikes. Puente reclaimed his Middle weight belt which he vacated to give others the opportunity to fight for it earlier this year. Ken Scott also of Casper, Wyoming was impressive in victory once again with his victory over the much larger Nick Tomlinson. Scott continues to improve winning his last 4 straight fights. Former amateur champ Nick Honstein made his pro debut and took Eric Allegria to to a majority decision victory in a back and forth battle. The main event ended before it actually got wound up when Brett Shafer verbally tapped out due to a problem with his shoulder after he took down Damond Clark. The fight ended at 1:34 of round 1 and Clark retains his professional heavyweight title.
