										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>SlapFIGHT Championship&#8217;s &#8220;INFLUX&#8221; event set out to replenish its heavyweight and super heavyweight divisions, and it delivered a night of brutal knockouts, grueling five-round wars, and unexpected new stars. Fourteen aspiring slappers battled for contracts in two separate tournaments, aiming to become the next top contenders in their respective weight classes. With champions Frank the Tank (Heavyweight) and Grizzly (Super Heavyweight) having cleaned out their divisions, the stage was set for fresh talent to make their mark.</p>
<p>The heavyweight tournament was a showcase of power and endurance from the opening bout. The action kicked off with &#8220;Silverback&#8221; securing a devastating knockout victory over &#8220;Hammer&#8221;. The momentum continued with a hard-fought, five-round battle between the smaller &#8220;Slapmare&#8221; and the formidable &#8220;Young and Lavish,&#8221; who ultimately earned a close judges&#8217; decision. The quarterfinals also saw &#8220;Break It Blake&#8221; advance after his opponent, &#8220;The General,&#8221; was plagued by repeated fouls, including stepping and flinching violations that cost him the match. In the final quarterfinal matchup, &#8220;Controversy&#8221; Cody Cox made a statement with a decisive win over &#8220;Rooster&#8221;.</p>
<p>The semifinals took an unexpected turn when Break It Blake was forced to withdraw due to a broken wrist sustained in his previous fight, giving Controversy a direct path to the finals. In the other semifinal, Silverback went to war with Young and Lavish, emerging victorious after five grueling rounds to book his spot in the main event.</p>
<p><b>Super Heavyweight Slugfest: Giants Collide<br />
</b>The super heavyweight division featured some of the largest athletes in slap fighting history, leading to chaotic and punishing encounters. In a wild opening match, the 6-foot-7, 390-pound &#8220;Sasquatch&#8221; was disqualified for repeated illegal strikes against &#8220;TKO&#8221; from Team Biscuit. Despite being knocked down, TKO showed incredible resilience to get back to his feet and advance due to Sasquatch&#8217;s fouls. On the other side of the bracket, &#8220;The Punisher&#8221; overcame an early knockdown to score a knockout win against &#8220;The Big Beast,&#8221; while &#8220;Trunk&#8221; received a bye into the semifinals.</p>
<p>However, the tournament was shaken up again when The Punisher had to pull out due to an injury sustained in his victory. This withdrawal propelled TKO and Trunk directly into the super heavyweight final for a coveted contract.</p>
<p><b>Crowning the New Contenders<br />
</b>The night culminated in two explosive finals that crowned the tournament winners. In the super heavyweight main event, TKO faced the fresh and powerful Trunk. Despite absorbing immense punishment throughout the five rounds, TKO&#8217;s cleaner technique and Trunk&#8217;s costly stepping penalties earned TKO a stunning upset victory by judges&#8217; decision, securing him the super heavyweight contract.</div>

In addition to the tournament winners, SlapFIGHT also awarded contracts to Silverback, Trunk, and Sasquatch, ensuring a massive influx of new talent for the divisions.</div>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Mark Coleman&#8217;s journey isn&#8217;t just a comeback—it&#8217;s a whole mood for a new era in combat sports. These days, &#8220;The Hammer&#8221; isn&#8217;t just the guy with a Hall of Fame resume. He&#8217;s PLN&#8217;s wild heart, a mentor who wears his scars and shares his bounce-back energy with a generation raised on unpredictability and second chances.</p>
<h2>Hammer Time: Mark x PLN, Unfiltered</h2>
<p>If anyone thought Mark Coleman would just fade into MMA history, think again. After years of struggle with addiction and hitting what he calls &#8220;rock bottom,&#8221; Coleman defines winning way beyond any belt or trophy in his case. &#8220;Getting sober is the only reason anything good since I got sober has happened. Nothing good about being a drunk and an addict for all those years,&#8221; he says. For him, gratitude is more hype than any highlight reel: &#8220;You can choose to be happy or you can choose to be sad and complain or accept. Gratitude is one of the most powerful words to me now.&#8221;</p>
<p>When PLN&#8217;s Friday Night Fights needed a real edge, Coleman brought it big time—not just as a commentator, but as the dude willing to tear his shirt off and take a Chest Chop from the champ on live internet, then slap back for viral PLN history.</p>

<p>His relationship with PLN started with a simple DM to JT Tilley and now looks like the GOAT blueprint for sports reinvention: &#8220;It&#8217;s one of the most coolest, funnest, wonderful jobs I could have. It just happened right out of a chance.&#8221; Coleman&#8217;s not afraid to push the PLN athletes either, always telling them, &#8220;Look, you ain&#8217;t got nothing, there&#8217;s 24 hours in a day, use them, let&#8217;s go.&#8221; That&#8217;s legacy, remixed for the TikTok generation.</p>
<h2>Lights, Movie, Action: &#8220;The Smashing Machine&#8221; and New Respect</h2>
<p>This year, Coleman&#8217;s story hits even harder with the release of &#8220;The Smashing Machine,&#8221; where Ryan Bader steps into his shoes for the biopic. Coleman&#8217;s been real about what seeing himself on the big screen means: &#8220;This one, it will make a big difference because the more people that know me, it just helps my platform and it helps my business and helps my life go more smoothly.&#8221; He&#8217;s down with the movie&#8217;s vibe, even if it makes him look a little too good: &#8220;They really portrayed me too much because I still had my angry moments&#8230; but my kids got to see the movie. How proud do you think I was as a dad with my three daughters watching somebody playing their daddy with The Rock playing the buddy?&#8221;</p>
<p><iframe title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/aRpnP3LZ99g?si=WzLlvGIaU-pkWk4t" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
<p>While his past was all about chasing more—more wins, more fame, more whatever—now he&#8217;s all in on sharing his story, hoping his honesty reaches others stuck in their own tough spots. &#8220;I&#8217;m not making a dime off it from anything, but I would like to, don&#8217;t get me wrong. But no, my platform is going to go tenfold. And the more people that know me and want to meet me, I book appearances and get paid to do it. It&#8217;s pretty fun because I like meeting people and making them happy.&#8221;</p>
<h2>Legacy: Still Running It Back</h2>
<p>Mark Coleman is living proof that you don&#8217;t peak at 21 or at champion status. If PLN is the future for weird, wild, and wonderful MMA offshoots, it&#8217;s because legends like Coleman are willing to mix it up and keep it real—both on screen and in real life chats with PLN&#8217;s next wave. For anyone figuring out their own comeback, &#8220;The Hammer&#8221; just keeps showing that the best round might be the next one.</p>

<p>This Friday, August 15 at 10 p.m. ET, The Gauntlet takes over the internet and your screen, bringing five insane combat sports, six elite competitors, and one shot at becoming the first-ever Friday Night Fights Champion.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re talking full send, no brakes, and pure chaos—streaming live on PLN&#8217;s YouTube and the Twitch channels of Mizkif, CoconutB, American Dad, and Middle-Aged Stream.</p>

<h3>What Even Is The Gauntlet?</h3>
<p>Imagine the most over-the-top obstacle course&#8230; but instead of jumping over foam pits, you&#8217;re choking people out in a car, getting slapped in the face, chest chopped into next week, and fighting your way out of a coffin.</p>
<p>Yep. That&#8217;s The Gauntlet. Five stations. Brutal speed trials. Zero forgiveness. The fastest overall time wins—unless you botch a move and rack up penalty seconds.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the madness, station by station:</p>
<p><strong>CarJitsu</strong> – You&#8217;ve got two minutes to make grappling legend Mike Cardiel tap&#8230; inside a car.</p>
<p><strong>Ultimate Tire Wrestling</strong> – Dunk human tank Jon Chambers into a giant tire. Yes, it&#8217;s as exhausting as it sounds.</p>
<p><strong>Chest Chop</strong> – Take and deliver earth-shaking chops to PLN powerhouse FAFO.</p>
<p><strong>SlapFIGHT</strong> – Throw clean open-hand slaps against Biscuit without flinching (or crying).</p>
<p><strong>Coffin Wars</strong> – Keep escape artist Raven in the coffin after busting out yourself. Fail, and say hello to more penalty time.</p>
<h3>The Six Brave (or Crazy) Competitors</h3>
<p>Each Friday Night Fights team picked their ultimate warrior for this chaos buffet:</p>
<p><strong>Groundshark</strong> (Team Pink) – A jiu-jitsu wizard with swagger for days.</p>
<p><strong>Zac Moore</strong> (Team Blue) – CarJitsu champ, wrestling beast, one-man highlight reel.</p>
<p><strong>LaRoy Davis</strong> (Team Purple) – Athletic freak who&#8217;s dominated multiple PLN sports.</p>
<p><strong>Steven Minski</strong> (Team Red) – &#8220;Mobile mechanic&#8221; with MMA grit and street smarts.</p>
<p><strong>Black Larry</strong> (Team Green) – Fan-favorite knockout king and chokehold master.</p>
<p><strong>Cole Owens</strong> (Team Gold) – Fearless CarJitsu competitor with fight IQ off the charts.</p>
<p>They&#8217;re fast, they&#8217;re tough, and they&#8217;ve been through every kind of physical madness PLN could throw at them this season. But The Gauntlet? This is different. This is survival of the absolute sickest.</p>
<p>Friday Night Fights has been the summer&#8217;s most chaotic sports rollercoaster—mashing up combat formats you can&#8217;t see anywhere else, building a cult following, and serving fights the internet can&#8217;t stop talking about.<br />

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Branson, Missouri was straight-up buzzing Friday night as Pro League Network&#8217;s Friday Night Fights returned for Week 9 live at PLN Studios, and the energy was absolutely unhinged. With Slim Reaper taking a break from the game, the vacant Light Heavyweight Championship became the hottest prize in slapfighting, and the four-man tourney brought nothing but heat, drama, and a finish that&#8217;s already got fans debating who&#8217;s next.</p>
<p>From bone-rattling KOs to all-out wars, Week 9 had it all&#8230; and then some.</p>
<h3>Psycho&#8217;s KO Rampage, Mallet&#8217;s Comeback, and Young &amp; Lavish&#8217;s Clinic</h3>
<p>The night kicked off with Tournament Semifinal matchup — &#8216;Break it&#8217; Blake Howard vs Psycho — and the vibe was electric. The first round had both guys throwing bombs, but in the second, Psycho made it crystal clear why he&#8217;s feared: one colossal slap, lights out. Howard hit the deck hard, and Psycho punched his ticket to the finals. Brutal.</p>
<p>Then came Mallet vs Smiley, and this one was a total war. Nine rounds of chaos. Smiley scored an early knockdown and had Mallet on shaky legs, but Mallet&#8217;s iron chin and savage heart flipped the script. By the end, Smiley&#8217;s mouth was shredded with a nasty inside cut, forcing the stoppage. TKO — and the crowd went nuts.</p>
<p>Next up, Young &amp; Lavish completely dismantled The Fireman. Round after round, he landed sharp, crisp shots that ballooned The Fireman&#8217;s cheek to double its normal size. By Round 7, the doc had to shut it down. This was less a fight and more a masterclass in controlled destruction.</p>
<h3>Black Larry&#8217;s Domination &amp; A New King Crowned</h3>
<p>The main event before the championship was Black Larry vs Outlaw — and let&#8217;s be real, this was a one-sided beatdown. Larry came in on a mission, dropping Outlaw again and again until the three-knockdown rule ended it in Round 4. Straight-up domination. If you blinked, you missed it.</p>
<p>Finally, time for the Light Heavyweight Championship Finals: Psycho vs Bad Influence. This wasn&#8217;t just a fight — it was a war for bragging rights and the belt. Both guys landed absolute nukes, each round feeling like it could tip either way. Psycho had moments where it looked like he might close it out, but Bad Influence stayed laser-focused, racking up points with clean, technical slaps while eating Psycho&#8217;s best shots.</p>
<p>When the dust cleared, the judges went unanimous — Bad Influence is your new Light Heavyweight Champion. The crowd roared as the belt was strapped around his waist, marking the beginning of a new era in PLN slapfighting.</p>
<p>Week 9 will be remembered for its chaos, blood, and the crowning of a champ who&#8217;s not afraid to scrap to the bitter end. Slim Reaper&#8217;s throne isn&#8217;t empty anymore&#8230; but challengers are already lining up.</p>

<p>We&#8217;re gearing up for a four-man Light Heavyweight Tournament that&#8217;s going to shake the whole PLN universe. Picture this: warriors diving slap-for-slap in quarter-finals that pack as much punch as the finals. The undefeated king might be chillin&#8217; for now, but these contenders are hungry and ready to claim their throne.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s how the madness breaks down:</p>
<p><strong>Light Heavyweight Quarter Final 1</strong>: &#8216;Break it&#8217; Blake Howard goes head-to-head with Psycho</p>
<p><strong>Light Heavyweight Quarter Final 2</strong>: Bad Influence clashes with Okie Savage</p>
<p>The rest of the night is stacked too, with some fire matchups you won&#8217;t wanna miss:</p>
<p><strong>Smiley vs. Mallet</strong> (3rd fight on the card)</p>
<p><strong>Slap Daddy vs. The Cure</strong> (4th fight)</p>
<p><strong>The Patriot vs. Young &amp; Lavish</strong> (5th fight)</p>
<p>And the main event? Outlaw vs. <strong>Black Larry</strong>, a banger guaranteed to end with jaws dropped.</p>

<p>These slappers bring insane energy, precision, and most importantly, insane slap power. Already, Black Larry has become a fan fave thanks to his smile-smash combo, and the undercard is just as lit.</p>
<p>With the vacant light heavyweight belt, there&#8217;s no shortage of drama; the champ&#8217;s absence means we&#8217;ll get a brand-new ruler crowned Friday night. The stakes have never been higher. Who&#8217;s got the chin? Who&#8217;s got the guts? Who will walk out with that coveted title? Only one way to find out.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re about high octane action mixed with raw backstory and unfiltered hype, this event&#8217;s for you. Each slap is more than just a hit, it&#8217;s a statement, a moment of glory or defeat that will echo through the PLN history books.</p>
<p>And don&#8217;t forget: this isn&#8217;t just any Friday night. It&#8217;s the night where legacies are born, and wherever you are, you need to be locked in.</p>
<p>So cancel your plans, grab your crew, and get ready for some serious slap heat.</p>

<h2>Rocky Fumbles, Flag Wavs, and Freaky Fights</h2>
<p>The evening kicked off with Rocky Moore vs Cherokee Outlaw, talk about a rollercoaster. There was some solid back-and-forth action, but Cherokee Outlaw kinda tripped up by throwing down three clubbing fouls (yeah, three!). That basically handed Rocky Moore the win, and he wasn&#8217;t shy about slapping extra for good measure. Oof, talk about a rough start for Cherokee.</p>

<p>Next, Cody Cox came out flexin&#8217; in his American flag speedo ready to rep the USA, going head-to-head with Hoodbilly, a dude rocking a patented skullet and trash talk sharper than his chops. These two brought mad energy, hyping up the crowd like crazy. Although Hoodbilly was wildin&#8217; with the chatter, Cox kept his game tight and snatched the win, making it a patriotic W for the pink team.</p>

<p>Then the newbies Okie Savage and Psycho entered the ring for a showdown that kept everyone on the edge of their seats. Both threw down some nasty chops, with the judges super torn about who won. JT Tilly&#8217;s &#8220;one more round&#8221; call was met with a whole studio yelling back &#8220;ONE MORE ROUND!&#8221; The sudden-death round was everything, Psycho landed one perfect slap and sealed his spot as a rising star.</p>
<h2>History Made and a Championship Shake-Up</h2>
<p>Brace yourselves, FAFO made history by dropping the first ever KO in Chest Chop&#8217;s crazy saga. With just two brutal chops, he absolutely demolished The Wildman&#8217;s abs, and The Wildman couldn&#8217;t even get back up. FAFO instantly shouted out Gary Gram.</p>
<p>Then, the main event, Gary Gram vs Frank The Tank, aka the slapfight legend who was gunning for a double crown. This match was straight-up legendary, with both fighters landing chops that left their stomachs looking like a battleground. Blood, sweat, and pure willpower were on display, and every round had us on the edge of our seats.</p>

<p>It all came down to the last round, and man, was it razor-thin. The judges wanted one more round to settle the score, but a major plot twist happened. Gary Gram threw a costly clubbing foul, and Frank The Tank didn&#8217;t waste the chance. He slammed down one clean, championship-winning chop and took home the title. Now, he&#8217;s not just the slapfight king but also the new chest chop champ. Legend status unlocked.</p>

<h2>Main Event Madness: Frank the Tank vs. Gary Gram</h2>
<p>The headline? It doesn&#8217;t get meatier than this. Frank the Tank (yep, that Frank), the underdog with only one chest chop victory to his name, is stepping into the line of fire against none other than Gary Gram, the world chop champion, a veritable titan whose hands are basically certified as public hazards.</p>
<p>One thing&#8217;s for sure: Frank&#8217;s last appearance left him wincing. In classic deadpan, Frank admitted, &#8220;It hurts so much more than slapping, and I don&#8217;t love it, but I&#8217;m going to continue trying to compete for a bit.&#8221; The pain is real, but so is his drive for glory, even if it means taking the red print of defeat right across his chest. Word of advice? Don&#8217;t try this at home.</p>

<h2>Chest Chop Chaos</h2>
<p>For the uninitiated, chest chop is exactly what it sounds like, two competitors taking turns smacking the soul out of each other&#8217;s chests in a battle where guts, grit, and a high pain threshold reign supreme. Every crack echoes, and every win comes the hard way.</p>
<p>But this week, it&#8217;s not just a one-on-one grudge match; the randomizer is spitting out wildcards left and right, bringing a full-on roster of slapping favorites into the chopping spotlight. Let&#8217;s hear it for:</p>
<p><strong>Okie Savage</strong> – Ain&#8217;t nothing timid about this Okie&#8217;s chops.</p>
<p><strong>Psycho</strong> – The wild card who brings energy (and maybe a little fear).</p>
<p><strong>FAFO</strong> – Let&#8217;s just say, the name says it all: &#8220;Find out&#8221; who leaves redder.</p>
<p><strong>Rocky</strong> – Always ready to go the distance and absorb the punishment.</p>
<p><strong>Captain Flamingo</strong> – Pink vibes, but the slap game is seriously savage.</p>
<p><strong>Fletcher Estes</strong> (from CarJitsu) – That&#8217;s right, this king of vehicular combat is hopping out of the car and into the chop circle.</p>
<p>Seeing these slappers try their hand, literally, at chest chop is a crossover event you never knew you needed. The randomizer ensures that matchups are as unexpected as the pain level. You might see wild technique, you might see wild reactions—but you&#8217;ll definitely see wild fun.</p>
<p>With slapping legends and newcomers entering the chest chop coliseum, expect nothing less than unpredictable pairings and gritty performances. Everyone&#8217;s out to make a mark—literally and figuratively. Want chaos? You&#8217;re getting chaos. Want high-stakes, viral moments? They&#8217;re guaranteed.</p>
<p>Ready to see who survives the chopocalypse? Set your alarms, blow up the group chat, and get your popcorn ready. Here&#8217;s where the legends are forged, and the brave get bruised for your entertainment.</p>

The energy? Unmatched. The drama? Next-level. The iconic matchups, let&#8217;s just say, history was made, memes were born, and the Branson crowds won&#8217;t ever look at a backseat the same way again.</p>
<p>Black Larry&#8217;s Lightning Finish Kicks Off the Night</p>
<p>Talk about a headliner: Kameron &#8220;Black Larry&#8221; Harris squared up against fan-favorite slap fighter Shamokin Thunderclap in a clash everyone expected to be wild, but NO ONE expected history in just 8 seconds! Before you could even adjust your rearview, Black Larry snatched up Shamokin Thunderclap with a can opener submission in the opening seconds, literally the fastest ever CarJitsu finish.</p>

<p>Thunderclap looked rocked but stuck it out with a dinged shoulder. Round two? Basically déjà vu, Black Larry dished out a forearm choke and snagged the dub in just 30 seconds, showing absolute domination. After the match, Black Larry wasn&#8217;t finished, he grabbed the mic and called out his old rival &#8220;Groundshark&#8221; CJay Hunter, looking for revenge after a previous Ultimate Tire Wrestling L.</p>
<p>Rear-Seat Antics in a Co-Main Event Brawl</p>
<p>Next up brought the chaos and comedy with Cole &#8220;Electi-Cole&#8221; Owens against CJay &#8220;Groundshark&#8221; Hunter. Just as the bell rang, Owens popped the seatbelt, opened the door, and hopped to the backseat, leaving Groundshark just as confused as the crowd was hyped. The two tossed everything from grappling to rock-paper-scissors (you read that right) before resuming battle for real.</p>

<p>Once the grappling smoke cleared, neither snagged a submission in round one, but the action was pure fire. Round two, Groundshark almost locked in a darce choke, but Owens&#8217; foot touched the mat just before he tapped, and action got reset. After another wild scramble, Groundshark took the back and cinched in the rear-naked choke, securing the win and sending a clear message that this shark still knows how to hunt.</p>
<p>Main Event Brings the Heat And a Nap!</p>
<p>It was legends only as CarJitsu vets Steven Minski and Zac Moore clashed for all the marbles. These two went full throttle out the gate, but Moore wasted zero time going on the offensive. Moore snagged top control, locked in a nasty seatbelt choke right across Minski&#8217;s carotid—and before Minski could blink, it was nap time. Match stopped at 33 seconds, TKO for Moore, who not only retains his belt but also his deadliest-in-the-division rep.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last week, Friday Night Fights was straight-up legendary at the AMP Summer House, as streaming superstar <a href="https://cagesidepress.com/2025/07/21/plns-fnf-week-6-hits-different-with-kai-cenat-and-the-amp-crew/" data-wpel-link="internal">Kai Cenat</a> and his wild AMP crew handed the keys to internet culture AND combat sports mayhem.</p>
<p>The vibe was off-the-charts as the house got turbocharged by slap-fighting madness, viral knockouts, and all the streamer chaos you could imagine. But the real internet-breaker?</p>
<p>The epic carjitsu showdown between Kai Cenat and Davis, streamed for thousands LIVE as the AMP squad lost their minds watching these giants grapple it out inside a car. Flexes, reversals, and zero chill, Davis stunned the crowd by out-grappling Kai and claiming the AMP CarJitsu Champion title in a match that instantly became a stream classic. If you missed it, congrats, you played yourself.</p>
<p>This Friday, PLN is gassing it even harder as CarJitsu Championship takes the wheel for Week 7. Three savage matchups headline the card, and if last week was a hint, get ready for absolute carnage, meme moments, and seriously viral jiu-jitsu insanity, all from inside the cramped confines of a car.</p>
<h3>Main Event: Cole &#8220;Electi-Cole&#8221; Owens (2-0) vs. CJay &#8220;Groundshark&#8221; Hunter (5-1)</h3>
<p>We are talking full-throttle action for the CarJitsu main event! CJay &#8220;Groundshark&#8221; Hunter, the vet who&#8217;s subbed his way through half the division, steps up to put the undefeated Cole &#8220;Electi-Cole&#8221; Owens to the test. These two?</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">No wasted moves, no panic, just pure, tactical <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/CarJitsu?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" data-wpel-link="external" target="_blank" rel="external noopener noreferrer">#CarJitsu</a>.</p>
<p>Watch as Groundshark seizes the opening, slipping in a seatbelt that no one saw coming. <a href="https://t.co/8OgdVIR1cG" data-wpel-link="external" target="_blank" rel="external noopener noreferrer">pic.twitter.com/8OgdVIR1cG</a></p>
<p>— CarJitsu Championship (@CarjitsuUSA) <a href="https://twitter.com/CarjitsuUSA/status/1856481246001398064?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" data-wpel-link="external" target="_blank" rel="external noopener noreferrer">November 12, 2024</a></p></blockquote>
<p>A combined ten submissions and a habit of never letting it go to the judges, with both averaging under two rounds per match. CJay&#8217;s name says it all, if he drags you underwater, you&#8217;re not coming up till it&#8217;s done. But Cole is built different: explosive, unpredictable, and carrying all the momentum in the world. This is a collision course of vet brains and new blood bravado. Blink, and you&#8217;ll miss it—the sub numbers tell the story, but someone&#8217;s spotless record is getting smudged.</p>
<p>Why You Gotta Watch:</p>
<p>Two of the slickest finishers in the PLN CarJitsu game.</p>
<p>History says this one won&#8217;t make it to the final bell.</p>
<p>Winner gets bragging rights and, possibly, a viral replay that&#8217;ll light up TikTok.</p>
<h3>Co-Main Event: Steven &#8220;Sugar Bear&#8221; Minski (6-3) vs. Zac Moore (4-1)</h3>
<p>The co-main serves up a whole new layer of expertise: Steven &#8220;Sugar Bear&#8221; Minski, with his iron-willed experience, faces Zac Moore, who&#8217;s carved his path with calculated power. Both are certified CarJitsu vets, and together, they&#8217;ve clocked 36 rounds and posted six career submissions. Sugar Bear is known for surviving wars and snatching wins in the clutch while Zac brings a pressure game that can cook anyone stuck in the backseat with him.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">Zac Moore turned the car into a trap&#8230; total control. <a href="https://t.co/Qrvf1Oqvb4" data-wpel-link="external" target="_blank" rel="external noopener noreferrer">pic.twitter.com/Qrvf1Oqvb4</a></p>

<p>Vibe Check:</p>
<p>Thirty-six rounds between the two, they know EVERY trick.</p>
<p>If it goes to deep water, it&#8217;s edge-of-your-seat stuff.</p>
<p>Someone&#8217;s getting tested. Someone&#8217;s getting clowned. Only way to find out is to tune in.</p>
<p>Featured Bout: Kameron &#8220;Black Larry&#8221; Harris (3-2) vs. &#8220;Shamokin Thunderclap&#8221; (1-0)</p>
<p>This matchup is pure PLN energy: Black Larry, the sport&#8217;s true swiss army knife, is packing a 3-2 record and three subs, ready to fight anywhere and any style. He&#8217;s up against the meme king and instant fan favorite, Shamokin Thunderclap, who&#8217;s one-for-one so far but packs unlimited potential (and slapper cred) from his viral debut.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">SlapFIGHT Championship&#8217;s &#8216;Black Larry&#8217; has returned to CarJitsu Championship to face newcomer Timothy Stevens in match 2 of <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/CarJitsu7?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" data-wpel-link="external" target="_blank" rel="external noopener noreferrer">#CarJitsu7</a>.</p>

<p>Why the Hype?</p>
<p>Black Larry brings depth, experience, and unpredictable style-shifts.</p>
<p>Shamokin Thunderclap is here for just his second carjitsu scrap, but he&#8217;s already a walking highlight reel.</p>
<p>Fans want chaos? This bout is the one.</p>
<p>This isn&#8217;t just a fight card, it&#8217;s the internet&#8217;s main event. PLN is dialed into the chaos, and Friday Night Fights means unapologetic, unfiltered brawls you and your group chat can&#8217;t stop talking about. This week, buckle up. The seatbelts are strictly optional, but tuning in isn&#8217;t.</p>

<h2>Grizzly vs. Tim Sylvia, Where Power Meets Precision</h2>
<p>The main event was basically a real-life anime clash. On one side, Grizzly, 400 pounds of pure, seismic energy. In the other corner, Tim &#8220;The Maine-iac&#8221; Sylvia, the 6&#8217;8&#8243; former UFC champ with ice-cold nerves and a champion&#8217;s IQ. From the very first slap, Grizzly made it crystal clear, he wasn&#8217;t just here for show. Every strike hit with the force of a Viking raid, and Sylvia, ever the calculating titan, tried to weather the onslaught with surgical strikes of his own.</p>

<p>But, honestly, Grizzly&#8217;s power was different. Sylvia threw big shots and never backed down, but Grizzly was on a Juggernaut run, steamrolling through &#8220;The Maine-iac&#8217;s&#8221; defense and turning precision into pure panic. After a back-and-forth war, it was Grizzly who stood tall, taking the win via unanimous decision to claim slap fighting&#8217;s ultimate crown. Sylvia&#8217;s heart? Undeniable. But this was Grizzly&#8217;s night.</p>
<h2>Frank the Tank Dismantles FAFO</h2>
<p>Right before the chaos of the main event, Frank the Tank threw down with FAFO in a battle of grit versus guts. Frank came in like a brick wall, eating FAFO&#8217;s best stuff and barely flinching. FAFO swung for the fences but couldn&#8217;t get Frank to budge. Each round, Frank landed shots that shook the house, staggering FAFO until the medics had to step in and stop the fight. With that, Frank the Tank retained his title and cemented his place as THE guy to beat in slap fighting.</p>
<h2>Instant KOs &amp; Viral Moments</h2>
<p>Raven vs. Slap Jesus: Raven was a menace, introducing Slap Jesus to the SlapFIGHT world with a soul-snatching first-round knockout. The crowd lost it as Slap Jesus was sent straight to the shadow realm, talk about a welcome.</p>
