The Night of the Warriors was cast by a full moon and an action packed night for the fans. All fights were evenly matched and as usual, Mr. Anderson has given the new and upcoming pugilists a chance to show there stuff, and move the sport of kickboxing forward. Great job in promoting the sport and fan satisfaction. It's always admirable to see the ones who have been in the ring before us, give the up and coming champions an arena to "STEP UP AND BRING IT ON"
