MANUP AND STAND UP
WAIPAHU FILCOM CENTER
FRIDAY FEB 5
DOORS OPEN AT 6:00

NUI WHEELER              140                   JONAH VISANTE
THE MAIN EVENT WILL FEATURE THESE TWO SKILLED WESTSIDERS FIGHTING FOR THE SOLJAH BOY’S NEWEST EDITION TO HIS BELT COLLECTION.  BOTH OF THESE BANGAS ARE WAIANAE RAISED AND ON FRIDAY NIGHT WE WILL SEE WHO HAS MORE WAIANAE IN THEM.  JONAH IS THE HIGH SCHOOLER CHASING HIS DREAM THAT NUI WEARS AROUND HIS WAIST.  HE BRINGS EXCITEMENT RIGHT FROM THE ENTRANCE TO THE DECISION (UNLESS IT DOESN’T GO TO THE DECISION).  HE HAS NEVER MET DEFEAT HERE ON MAN-UP AND HOPES HE NEVER MEETS IT, ESPECIALLY ON FRIDAY NIGHT.  NUI ON THE OTHER HAND IS THE ARROGANT AND COCKY ADULT WHO WILL TRY TO PLAY TEACHER WHEN THE SCHOOL BELL RINGS.  BE THERE TO SEE WHO IS GIVING THE LESSONS WHEN CLASS STARTS.

KALAI MCSHANE          120                   JACOBI VISANTE
THESE TWO 15 YEAR OLD HAMMAS HAVE MET ON MAN-UP BEFORE WITH KALAI PULLING OUT THE W.  BUT JACOBI HAD DIFFERENT FEELINGS ON THAT FIRST MATCH AND WANTS A SECOND CHANCE AT HIM.  THAT NIGHT HE WALKED OUT THE RING WITH NO POORSPORT ATTITUDE AND EXCEPTED THE LOSS LIKE A MAN (OR DID HE EXCEPT THE LOSS).  THESE TWO CHAMPIONS ALREADY OWN BELTS AND ARE OLDER, FASTER AND STRONGER FROM THE LAST TIME THEY MET.  WE’RE GONNA MAKE THINGS INTERESTING AND DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN WITH ANOTHER BELT ON THE LINE.  SO IF YOU THOUGHT THE FIRST MEETING WAS ACTION PACKED, THAT WAS JUST CHILD’S PLAY.  FRIDAY NIGHT WILL FEATURE ONE GUY TRYING TO PROVE THE FIRST TIME WASN’T A FLUKE AND THE OTHER GUY TRYING NOT TO LET IT GO THE DECISION AGAIN.

FERDINAND RAMIREZ  160                   TONY PERRERA
FERDINAND WILL STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND TAKE ON THE WAIANAE BOXING SENSATION IN AN AMERICAN STYLE KICKBOXING MATCH.  FERDINAND FAVORS HIS LEG KICKS AND KNEES WHICH HIS LAST OPPONENT FOUND OUT BUT WILL TURN IT DOWN A NOTCH FOR THIS SHOW.  OR SHOULD IT BE SAID THAT TONY WILL STEP UP TO THE PLATE TO TAKE ON THE NEW MIDDLEWEIGHT CHAMP.  WELL, NOBODY IS STEPPING UP OR DOWN BECAUSE BOTH OF THESE FIGHTER’S ORIGINAL MATCHES GOT SCRATCHED AND THEIR COACHES DECIDED THAT IT WOULD BE A GOOD MATCH AND EVEN A BETTER CHALLENGE FOR BOTH FIGHTERS.  FOR THE BOXER NOW HAS TO WORRY ABOUT KICKS TO DEFEND AND THE K1 STYLE FIGHTER NOW HAS TO DO WITHOUT THE LEG KICKS AND KNEES.  DON’T MISS THIS BOXING CHAMPION VS KICKBOXING CHAMPION MATCH.

GABBY DENNIS            150                  JENNA ODA
THE ONLY FEMALE MATCH WILL SHOWCASE THESE TWO WOMEN SWINGING INSTEAD OF PULLING HAIR OR SCRATCHING.  GABBY HAS STEPPED IN TO FACE JENNA IN A LAST MINUTE REPLACEMENT.  JENNA’S ORIGINAL MATCH WAS UNABLE TO MAKE THIS SHOW.  THIS IS GABBY’S DEBUT ON MAN-UP & STAND-UP BUT TRAINS WITH UNIVERSAL COMBAT SPORT THAT COMPETE IN ANY KIND OF COMBAT ACTION.  AS FOR JENNA, SHE HAS ONLY TWO KICKBOXING EXHIBITIONS AND IS GOING TO FINALLY SMELL HER FIRST REAL MATCH.  COME DOWN AND SUPPORT THESE TWO WOMEN FOR THIS ONE GOES ON THE RECORD.  SEE YOU THERE
