Posted by Mike Calimbas on June 6, 2009

lsbd10Below are some quick results from what I remember of the fights last night at Lonestar Beatdown 10. Congrats to Hontz of twin wolves and Jimenez of TX Powerhouse for their  title victories. Also thanks to all the other fighters that fought and gave us a good show. Some pics from the event should be up on dncworldwide.com later today.

Fight Results

145 USACA Title - Jeremy Hontz (Twin Wolves) vs. Dominic Rodriguez (4oz. fight club) 
One of the few matches with techhnical groundwork. Both fighters did a good job escaping with Dominic managing to roll out of a very tight armbar at one point. Jeremy took this one at the end via decision.

155 USACA Title – Nick Felder (Gracie Barra) vs. Gilbert Jimenez (Powerhouse MMA) 
Gilbert “Pitbull” Jimenez gets the win via KO in the first round after chasing down Felder. 

125 
Martin Garcia (Gracie Barra) vs. Ed Rosino (Bushi Ban) 
Garcia gets this the win here after knocking out the Bushi Ban product.

135 
Marcus Dupar (Rocky Long MMA) vs. Ben Oliver (Elite MMA) 
Marcus Dupar comes through for the victory via right hook KO over Oliver, who was controlling the action on the ground until he got caught.

155 
Aaron Croon (Team Tooke) vs Arnold Gutierrez (Legion MMA) 
Croon got the decision win over his much shorter opponent after controlling the distance of the fight for 3 rounds.

Vicente Gama (Rising Sun Karate) vs. Julian Vega (Elite MMA Baytown) 
Quick rear naked choke victory for the Elite MMA Baytown product. They say Vega is a baby clone of fellow Elite fighter Jordan Rivas, who should be up for a LSBD title shot at 170.

Cesar Gonzales (Silverback MMA) vs. Waylon Ward (Kuk Sool Won) 
Cesar wins this match but not without some fireworks as Waylon came out running with a flying knee that connected. If Waylon was a little more experienced on the ground, he may have gotten an armbar but Cesar pounding him on the ground for the duration of the fight to victory.

170

Travis Moore wins this one.

Justin Murray (Bushi Ban) vs. Alex Moreno (Gracie Barra Woodlands)
