The HKFCAOAFE for Fight of the Night
This award goes to the fight that excited the fans and left them jumping out of their seats at Hard Knocks 5.
The nominees are: Mark Morales vs. Jarod Milko, Sumeet Gill vs. Matt Krayco and Aaron Armstrong vs. Curtis Chambers
And the winner is... Sumeet Gill vs. Matt Krayco
WOW!!! Simply WOW!!! This fight had it all. Takedowns, submission attempts and two guys standing in the centre of the cage wailing on each other. Both Gill and Krayco showed outstanding skill and tremendous courage in a bout that may soon be remembered as Hard Knocks version of Forest Griffin vs. Stephan Bonnar.
The first round saw the fighters exchange hard punches and kicks as well as top position and submission attempts on the ground. Krayco clearly got the better of Gill in round 1, but in round 2 Gill came out a new man. Gill looked more confident in his strikes as the round started, until his plan was momentarily derailed by a Krayco punch. The right-hook sent Gill to the mat, but Krayco let him up in order to try and finish Gill standing. Sitting at ringside you could see a change in facial expression from Gill as he got back up. In his eyes you could see this was no longer an MMA match, this was a fight. From there Gill brought the fight to Krayco and the fighters went back and forth, taking turns winning the furious striking exchanges. At one point, the fighters grabbed each other by the back of the head and proceeded to repeatedly punch each other in the face. For about 20 seconds, it looked like a hockey fight in the centre of the Hard Knocks cage. The fans rose to their feet and cheered loudly as the second round expired.
Everyone in attendance was looking forward to third round, but unfortunately it was not to be. In between rounds, Krayco's corner decided to protect their fighter and the fight was waved off. The reason for Krayco's retirement was a possible broken jaw and ringing in his ears. As Gill celebrated his victory with a backflip, Gill soon discovered that he was missing his front tooth. Where that tooth is now is a mystery, perhaps a gruesome souvenir for a cage-side fan?
