From the event’s promoter: Schall Hopes to ‘Keep Truckin’ in XFO Event FONTANA, Wis. — Kerry Schall says "this is the year of the Meat Truck." And, so far, it has been exactly that. Schall, nicknamed the Meat Truck, has won three in a row in 2004 and all of them by first-round stoppage. The Team Extreme fighter has won 8 of his last 9 and boasts an impressive record of 18-6. On Saturday, June 26, Schall will meet a fighter with a similar streak in the main event of the Xtreme Fighting Organization (XFO) show at The Abbey Resort in Fontana, Wis. Kevin Jordan of Atlanta has a 3-fight win streak of his own, two of those by KO. And although he is less experienced with a 4-2 overall record, Jordan thinks he can pull the upset over Schall. "This is really a good fight… two heavyweights who are headed in the right direction," said XFO promoter Jeff Curran. Schall, who trains with UFC vet Rich Franklin, has fought some of the best… including Fedor Emelianenko, Bobby Hoffman and Travis Fulton. Griffen has fought Travis Wiuff, Cabbage Carreira and Forest Griffen. In addition to the heavyweight main event, XFO 2 will nine other bouts with young talent from Iowa, Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin. For more information, check out the website at www.x-fighting.tv. Tickets are available by calling Curran at 815 356-0454.

From the event’s promoter: Women’s MMA Show November 6, 2004 Evansville, Indiana HOOKnSHOOT will rise to the occasion once again to bring the best women fighters to the forefront of MMA with athletes from around the world. In April 2002 HnS stunned the world with "Revolution." An all-women’s Full Contact show that has since won a film award, was shown on ESPN’s Outside The Lines and got an even bigger response long after the show was over. "Already things have been happening that surpass the first show" says promoter Jeff Osborne. "Playboy has expressed interest in doing an article as well as Femme Fatale Magazine (a publication about prominent women’s rolls in Hollywood movies)." "One thing that caught me off guard was MTV’s interest in the show" continues Osborne. "They will be at the women’s show filming for a new series and potentially casting some of the women for the show." The main event is now official! Megumi Fuji of Japan will take on Erica Montoya in the main event. Fuji is both a Japan National Sambo Champion and pro wrestler as well. Her list of grappling accomplishments are incredible. She is 1-0 in MMA but vows to tap Montoya out! Erica is not only a fighter, she’s a UFC broadcaster, in addition to her undefeated 6-0 record in MMA, Montoya still remains active in grappling and many consider her a slight favorite to win. Unlike the first show, Osborne says instead of 18 fighters, there are now over 55 interested women and he urges others to step up and get involved. Anyone wishing to sponsor the event or get involved, should contact HOOKnSHOOT@aol.com. More matches and big announcements will be made in the upcoming weeks!
