IFL Team Semifinals

Folks, I'm here at the Continental Airlines Arena in East Rutherford, NJ for the IFL Team Semifinals.  I'm impressed with the crowd here for Thursday night MMA action just outside NYC.  And the IFL has a very nice setup in the arena with two large video screens at either end of the arena. 

The national anthem has just been sung and the first matchup between the #1 L.A. Anacondas (coached by Shawn Tompkins) and the #4 Quad City Silverbacks (coached by Pat Miletich) is being introduced to the fans.

Bout order has has been determined by a flip of the coin:

1) Light heavyweights

2) Welterweights

3) Lightweights

4) Middleweights

5) Heavyweights

Let the matches begin...
