Carolina Crown 2 Coverage
This coming Saturday, October 24, MMAFrenzy.com will be on site to cover The Carolina Crown 2, an event put on at the RBC Center in Raleigh, NC by the North Carolina based company Carolina Fight Promotions. We will also be on site for the weigh-ins Friday at Locked & Loaded Grill in Garner, NC.
The full card for the event features five amateur bouts and nine professional bouts, including a main event light heavyweight contest featuring Vinny Magalhaes vs. Jason Guida. The main event was originally scheduled to be a rematch from “The Ultimate Fighter” of Magalhaes vs. Lance Evans, however Evans was forced to withdraw from the bout due to a leg injury.
The schedule for the weekend includes weigh-ins Friday at 6pm at the Locked & Loaded Grill, with “cage” girls on hand from 5pm to 8pm. Amateur bouts start at 4:30 on Saturday at the RBC Center, and the professional bouts begin at 7:30. Following the conclusion of the fights at the RBC Center is the official after party at The Backyard Bistro which is only a block away from the RBC Center. The after party will allow you to mingle with the “cage” girls and meet some of the fighters. They will also be showing the UFC 104 pay-per-view broadcast at the after party.

nice card actually, I look forward to your coverage man
dontbedone of amarillo, texas also cordially invitest he MMAfrenZy crew out to texas to cover our local company, Shark Fights Promotions.. They have had 6 events so far and I believe ive been to all except one of them and it is a great show. they seem to try to put on shows that that fan are excited to see, and it keeps getting bigger with every time.. now they had a mistake in my opinion when they made up for a rain-canceled show with a free-to-all show cause the wait to get in was 90 minutes, but we had fun anyway… plus it would be cool to meet you guys.. im a relatively new poster, but have been following the frenZy for a long time and like the way things get done around this site(although i cant get my avatar to carry over to the forums section.. oh well).. but anyway we in West Texas are crazy about mma. most people flipped their lid when the word that Bas Rutten and Mike Brown were coming to our town and they were nice as can be, i got to talk to mike for a long time during the fights and he was asking ME about the area… cool guy… so the fans are super cool and if you guys do come down for shark fights 7, i got a posse of fellas who will go in with me for your Tees and we will create a Frenzy section!
I would love to cover a Shark Fights event. I actually have family in the Amarillo area, but every time I’ve been out there, I either just missed a Shark Fights, or it was happening a couple weeks later. Keep us updated on when Shark Fights 7 is taking place, and maybe it will work out when I am out there.
On the T-Shirts, you can order Shirts here and maybe if you and your friends go in on a bunch of them in one order, Kris might be able to give you a discounted shipping rate, contact him through the site messenger to see if that’s possible.
yeah we are awaiting word now on the upcoming event.. an announcement on the show will be made any day now. anyway thanks and i”ll place my order soon and let you know details..
Good Luck Justin!
Email me if you want to eliminate making some of the mistakes I made with it…

Just so I’m clear, is our Justin H promoting MMA now?
If so, congratulations, and can I get an amateur 205 fight?
Airfare to Carolina is He11a cheaper than Honolulu…
No, just attending and covering the event.
After seein Vinny pull off that flying armbar on Pe De Pano in ADCC last month Guide better keep those arms in tight. That was one SWEET armbar!
Hey man check dave linder out. He’s one of our fighters from conflict fighting. The guys got heart. Look for all the conflict tees. Ull see us well be there.
