Niko v. Mayhem

Alooha ! Hey, does anyone know about the result of the match, Falaniko "Niko" Vitale v.
 
Jason "Mayhem" Miller, held last night in Blaisdell Arena? Let me know, please !! 
 
Anyway, yesterday I mentioned about HCW's Filipino Crippler. Crippler means..............
 
Speaking of Filipino, AZW, HCW's archrival, presents a new tagteam, namely the Fil-Am
 
Connection ! It consists of a Filipino = The Backyard Dog and an American = "The Rocker"
 
Don Lee. They beat Cheap Ruck (Cheap Heat & "Pure Luck" James Fitzgerald)

 

in their first match in AZW "Halloween Hangover".

 

The Phillipines hot in Hawai'i !   Mahal kita !!

Falaniko "Niko" Vitale v. Jason Miller

Aloha !! Fortunately we can see many events in Blaisdell Arena this month !!
 
According to mmafighting.com,
 
"The most anticipated match-up in Icon Sport (formerly Super Brawl) history is
 
official. Falaniko Vitale and Jason “Mayhem” Miller will meet in the middleweight
 
(185-lb) main event of Icon Sport: Opposites Attract on Friday, October 28th
 
at the Blaisdell Arena in Honolulu. Although the victor will earn the opportunity
 
to challenge current Middleweight champion Robbie Lawler for the belt, neither
 
Vitale nor Miller are looking past their October match-up."
 
Oh, 'Super Brawl" has been changed into "Icon Sport", hasn't it?
 
I didn't know that.
