We discussed the Cage Brawl card promoted by Sam Abraham that happened June 9,2007. A general synopsis of the conversation: Bobby did not get to fight on that show. It was said that he did not make weight but he had a verbal agreement with Rodney Carter (the guy he was fighting) that the fight was going to happen even though the Ohio representative had not gotten there to weigh them. The representative was supposed to show up at 3:00pm (The day of the fights!!) and was very late for the weigh ins. Bobby had already gone back to his room to rehydrate for the fight. The promoter, Sam, did not contact him to tell him that he had to make weight when the representative got there. When Bobby was told it was to close to 6:00pm and there was no way for him to make weight. The fight card went on and there were many problems. Also, one of the fighters on the card who goes by Tha Super 1 had been dragging Bobby’s name through the mud. He had also refused blood tests from the Commission and was not allowed to fight. Allan Stamp was also on the call and he corroborated the story and explained in more detail some of the things that occurred. He explained how the promoter had only bought 8 pairs of gloves and had 17 fights scheduled for the card. A suspicious thing was that Sam A was a manager of Rodney C. Bobby and Allen were in agreement that his name was put on the card to sell tickets. To find out more about the guests: myspace.com/bobby_mma_fighter and to myspace.com/stryker59.
