As usual, Operation Octagon delivered an incredible night of fight. Even more than usual, the night could be defined by true heart. Again, and again, fighters rose to the occasion, not always prevailing, but never giving up. All the fights were entertaining, and most were very competitive. Gold Medal Grappling's Samir Farid continued where he left off in his debut by dominating a very tough Yun Kim who just didn't know how to quit.

Gold Medal's luck wouldn't hold as Champ Dirk Hurrin dropped his belt to Fairfax Jiu-Jitsu's Bryan Lane in a 3 round war. Lane stayed ahead on the card by getting off first and having more success controlling his opponent, even though at the end of the tough fight he looked worse for the wear.

The ladies were not to be out done for sheer violence this evening. Kelsey Desantis delivered a beating that was almost criminal to her opponent Kristen DeBrucker, who also did not know the meaning of the word quit. DeBrucker fought back for 3 rounds, but at the end she looked ready to try out for the event's costume contest as a fresh living dead girl.

Umaer Haq won another title against Terrell Hobbs, after two round of viscous trading that left Haq a bloody mess. He persevered and sank in a last minute choke to win with under a minute to go to take home the 140lb Super Bantam weight strap.

Fernando Yamasaki worked the event as both coach and referee.
Mike Pope stepped up to fight for the interim light weight title against the highly anticipated debut of two time division three All American wrestler Donny Ooton. No one told Pope he was suppose to be out classed in wrestling, as he opened the first round with a takedown, and kept top control delivering a violent welcome to MMA to Ooton. Ooton rallied in the second round, and dominated Pope with his wrestling for the entire second round. Pope looked spent in his corner, and if round three looked like it would be more of the same. But nobody told Pope. Scrambling from the clinch he gets Ooton's back and sinks in the rear naked choke for the win, and the crowd went wild. The night wrapped up with a action packed first round between Bryan Lachomb and Alejandro Zea, that went back and forth for three minutes only to stop suddenly when the champ got his opponent's back and slipped in the choke.
The great night of fights also held a Halloween costume contest bringing scary witches, sexy pilots, Frederica Krueger and some dicks in boxes to the ring for cash prizes, but sadly no one claimed the classic MMA star award. As usual, Operation Octagon delivered, and I look forward to the next event by Northern Virginia's premiere amateur promotion.
