In response to fan interest, a new arena setup at the Continental Airlines Arena will provide additional Octagon side seating and allow fans to view these highly skilled athletes up close. On one side of the Octagon, front row elevated seating will be available to fans just six feet from the action. On the other two sides of the Octagon, fans will be elevated just 20 feet away on risers, compared to past UFC events where fans were on risers 20 rows back from the competition. Unlike boxing, a lot of the action in a UFC match takes place lying down. With the Octagon only two feet off of the ground, fans in all areas of the arena are provided with an unobstructed view for each battle. Spectators in the new Octagon side seats can enjoy the strength and skill of the all-new UFC like never before. Limited tickets for the new Octagon side seats are $200, and can be purchased at TicketMaster.com, all TicketMaster outlets, or by calling 201-507-8900 (CALL-FOR-TIX). Additional tickets, priced at $100, $60, $30 and $15, also are available. "Showdown In The Meadowlands" will be televised by DirecTV pay per view live at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT. |

Warriors Quest 2001: "The New Beginning" Results May 29, 2001 – Blaisdell Arena, Honolulu, Hawaii By Chris Onzuka – Chris@Onzuka.com While there was a buzz all over the fireworks and action in the movie Pearl Harbor, especially in Hawaii, there were a lot more bombs thrown at the Blaisdell Arena. Former Jesus Is Lord member, Brennan Kamaka is now leading his own group of fighters under the SWAT Fighting Team. In addition to SWAT, he has started promoting primarily amateur MMA events. His first two events called Hawaiian Combat were successful enough to build into the Warriors Quest, which was held at the Blaisdell Arena. The event was split between professional and amateur bouts. The professional bouts were primarily represented by Kamaka’s relatives, the Jesus Is Lord team and pit them against the toughest up and comers from the West Coast. Sparks flew as these game opponents met for a night of non-stop action. The event started off with some exciting amateurs that may be the stars of tomorrow and ended showing the strength of the Jesus Is Lord team and Niko Vitale’s total domination of Todd Medina. 130lbs. 205lbs. 175lbs. 145lbs. 160lbs. 155lbs. 180lbs. Light-Heavyweight Championship – 195lbs. Bantamweight Championship – 145lbs. Middleweight Championship – 180lbs. Lightweight Championship – 167lbs. |
