The same fighters keep bringing in a lot of people. If the crowd likes a fighter, Sven would be a fool to not bring them back.

As would any other promoter!

Its not the same fighters every time. They switch the cards. But if a fighter is winning and bringing out a crowd as stated above keep bringing them back. And ROF is hands down the best promotion in the Rocky Mountain Region.

It is said that every over night success is ten years in the making. Well Sven Bean and the Ring of Fire are coming up on their ten year mark and it has grown tremendously in that time.

It all started out in a small hotel ballroom at the Denver Radisson, Castle hotel. They're now packing the Broomfield Event Center.

The Ring Of Fire hasa a pool of regular fighters, just like the UFC or Pride, plus Sven is always on the hunt for new talent. Not to knock the other shows in the region, but it takes alot of promotion to fill an arena like the Broomfield Events Center.

CO commish needs a drug testing policy, but i am not getting my hopes up , seeing how they JUST started mandatory blood testing.
November 26, 2007

mrmusclemaker said:

I agree about testing. I have it from a pretty good source that an ammy that J fought was using alot of juice. I wouldn;t call them out because there is a,ways a possibility I am wrong. But wonder what he will do when he goes pro and gets tested. I am in favor of a 5 to 10 dollar increase in fees to test ammys. Alot of cheaters would be exposed.
November 26, 2007

vanillagorilla said:

Yeah i think so as well. However, Sven form ROF is a great guy and promotor that always looks out for the fighters and himself. I really doubt that he would put his biz in harms way. That dude could very well be a product of the juice but he may have cycled off. May just be a great fighter.
November 26, 2007

Dinstitute said:

...
Unless, someone is tested and there is proof of such then this subject needs to be left alone in a public forum. Accusing fighters of being on the juice, even speculating that they are, is wrong. This is the type of thing that can ruin someones career in the long run.

They used to talk about Donnie Liles that way. Again unless you have proof.
November 26, 2007

mrmusclemaker said:

PLEEEEAZE NO ONE think I am saying anyone on ROF is juicing. That was not where I was going with my statement. I think Sven and the ROF promotion rock. I was suggesting someone all together different in my testing statement for the record. I am a fan and supporter of Sven Bean.

The thing is the commish needs to get those polocies started.

Word has in Strike Force pulled out of having a card in Denver because of the Co commish just starting blood work, and no drug testing.
November 26, 2007

ChrisZacher said:

also naming peeps saying they use juices, and I mean by name, is weak sauce, also no one should blame a promoter.


it is not a promoters responsibility in the good ole U S of A to test for it, it is the gaming commission's

I like your style fooos. im juicin it right now. I love my OJ its so nice and refreshing.

DO THEY TEST FOR OJ......man that would suck

I like the V1 splash. When i get rich I am going to get a juicer, and no it's not the Sylvia model.

I can now officially say that I am deeply upset by the forum here... thank you Eric for trying to get the subject out... I might be responding from too much of a personal level here but I am also responding from a very KNOWLEDGEABLE basis... PLEASE do NOT EVER talk about someone or ruin their career based on jealousy, lack of knowlege, or fun fingers (typing frenzy)... ASSUME is ASS U ME it makes an ass out of U and unfortunately ME is SHANE CARWIN in this situation. Shane is an amazing person, athletically he has a G-D given talent. I have known the man for a very long time now, and yes in highschool, EVERYONE is smaller than after college,(even Shane, people used to give him a hard time because of how small he was back then and that was only while he was in his first years of college) heck even after their first year of college. Shane has worked his ass off to be where he is now and continues to work his ass off. DO NOT defame his character by printing useless information that is NOT fact!!!! Please feel free to comment back to me personally if you want to as I do not hide behind any ninja name here "Roid rage man"--- This is Anne Whipple, if you don't know who I am then ask anyone and they can tell you and even tell you how to get a hold of me. I welcome your FACTS... especially about the other ROF fighters who are have allegidly il-gotten muscles!!!

As for drug testing, ask Donnie... or you could ASSUME once again... I personally saw Josef waiting for the piss cup after the Pueblo No Mercy fight against him and John Cronk. Josef is not stupid, the testing is here it is just not BROADCASTED to all of the spectators.

ROF is an elite show that I am VERY proud to be a part of. The athletes on the fight card are very repectfully chosen and it with a high honor to fight on the card. And there is NO fighter that is OVER used. This fight card alone actually has 4 household names and 13 new fighters to the cage (at the time I saw the fight card as posted on this site) so how is this ALL the same fighters?

Each fight promotion across the US has a different style of how they line up their matches... if a promoter treats the fighters the way they should be treated they will fight again for that promoter.

WOW, I feel a "little" better now...

Thanks Dinstitue and mrmusclemaker!

ChrisZacher said:

Well Anne I know you are pretty fired up, while i agree about accusing anyone of using roids is wrong, I have to disagree on the testing thing. yeah donnie may have gotten tested, but how many shows go on where there is no testing after the main events? A lot, and that's what stopped strike force for wanting to come here. There needs to be a PUBLIC ruling on the standards of the drug testing, just like any other respectable comission. And if he was so smart, how come they JUST started blood testing? How safe is that?

ChrisZacher said:

and don't be upset about "the forum" be upset at the people who posted what pissed you off. To many people locally here can't figure out that just because some people have an opinion on here, that everyone doesn't share that opinion.

It is a public forum, s**t like that is going to happen, and if local fighters ever plan on getting into a bigger picture they are going to have to get used to that type of stuff, or just avoid MMA forums on line.

but you have every right to be upset at someone hiding behind a screen name and accusing people of that s**t. i totally agree with you being upset at that, because that s**t drives me nuts too.

I apologize for allowing that comment to go through. MMABuzz is NOT the place to accuse fighters of taking illegal drugs. I try to watch what comments get through, this one I dropped the ball on.

I do agree that drugs are an issue here in the local MMA scene and I would like to see something done about it. I think as the sport grows so will the professionalism with regards to drug testing.

I think that SVENS RING OF FIRE speaks for its self. i have had the pleasure to fight on his cards numerous times now and if it were up to me that would be the only show that i would ever fight on. HE TREATS HIS FIGHTERS LIKE GOLD and puts on the best show hands down in Central US. Why ninjas think they have to come and talk crap is beyond me. abviously they are jealous and/or have never been in the ring and understand the sacrifices that are made to be a fighter. so who ever you are screw off cause you are not welcome to be apart of this sports.......TOOL.

vanillagorilla said:

Just wanted to clear things real quick. This was in no way intended to insult any other promotors. I will fight for other promotions but the point was that Sven has paid his dues and conducts his shows very well. There are many other promotions that are very good just not as big YET. So if I offend anyone im sorry. well accept for the dude talkin mess. he can still eat my shorts (my vale tudo shorts. after a long sweaty work out)

Chris, I know that as a PUBLIC forum that the people that post do not always agree with what other people write, that is one of the beauty's of it being a PUBLIC and free speech forum! You are ok!
Thanks for the support Mike and everyone else.
And yes, as Colorado develops so will the drug testing... so until then c'est la vie
