Results and Recap: Friday Night Fights "Valtellini vs. Berrios"

Friday Night Fights threw its second event in eight days on Friday September 23rd and fans were in for a treat. The main event featured a bout between two of North America's hottest prospects in Canada's Joseph Valtellini and Florida's Alex Berrios.

Coming into the fight, picking the winner was any one's guess. Would it be the explosive Joseph Valtellini or the very technical Alex Berrios? As expected Valtellini came out looking to push the pace while Berrios looked to use his teeps from trying to keep Valtellini from moving in. Berrios looked to work by throwing single shots, while Valtellini looked to mix his attacks up with various strikes. Berrios attempted on a few occasions to land a flying knee, but Valtellini shrugged the attempts off. Berrios then tried to initiate the clinch, but Valtellini was able to avoid the clinch. Valtellini used very effective leg kicks that you could tell were adding up and after the end of round two, Berrios did not answer the bell to start round three. The win is a huge victory for Valtellini, who once again finishes his opponent in dominant fashion.

Results for Friday Night Fights 6/10/2011

Friday Night Fights was in full effect once again in New York. In the night's main event Chris Kwiatkowski made sure he wasn't going to leave things up to the judges as he had done his pervious fight which ended in a draw. The Polish Punisher made sure Oliver Parker didn't see the final bell let alone the final round after scoring a fourth round KO.

Two big names also on the card were Brodie Farber and Phillipe Nover, two former UFC fighters. Both came in with big expectations from them and they both delivered. Farber scored a TKO over Josh Tamsen-Estrella, and Nover defeated tough Canadian Anthony Ford via KO.
