Cage Fury Fighting Championships was back in Atlantic City, New Jersey as it presented CFFC 8 - Seek N' Destroy at the Resorts Hotel and Casino. The event honored the U.S. Military Forces in an early Memorial Day Weekend celebration. The fighters all gave their best and it made for an action-packed event that featured 6 of 7 fights ending in either knockout or submission.
In the main event, Joey "Boom Boom" Rivera (6-0) submitted Doug "Flash" Gordon (11-10) via triangle choke in Round 2. The first round went back and forth with Rivera being the more active in the grappling situations. In the second, Gordon dropped Rivera in the standup then followed him to ground, which ended up being a costly mistake as Rivera worked from the bottom and secured the triangle choke and the victory to stay unbeaten. This was Rivera's first fight to go past Round 1 but ended as all his others had. The welterweight Rivera showed why he is a force to be reckoned with in the CFFC 170 lb division. In the co-main event, Jay Coleman (7-4) defeated Sam Jackson (10-21) via TKO in Round 2 of their 155 lb battle. Coleman was originally slated to face CFFC Lightweight Champ Marques Daniels, but that fight was scrapped and late-replacement Sam Jackson stepped in. After a four-year layoff, Coleman showed little cage rust but unrelenting ground and pound in his win over the game Jackson. Hopefully for Coleman, his next fight will be against Daniels for the 155 lb title. CFFC 8 - Seek N' Destroy had several exciting finishes playing to a packed crowd and once again confirmed why the promotion is the premier Northeast cage fighting organization. The only way to see this exciting 7-bout card loaded with some of the top East Coast prospects is to order it on GFL.tv. Order now! |
