Just talked with Jerod Phillips of mma fightwear company Tap or Sleep. He was at PA Fighting Championship last night in Harrisburg and passed along a few of the results:

Jay Haas of Hanover Academy of Mixed Martial Arts (and his own school in Lewisberry) got a TKO win against Michael Bunyamanhop. Jay had Bunyamanhop mounted and was raining down punches, Jerod said.

Another Hanover fighter, Kevin Flinchbaugh, also scored a first-round TKO, this one on the feet, at about :38, against Joshua Geiringer.

Hanover's third fighter, Brad Herrick, lost by KO to Justin Lucas.

Jeff Smith, who used to train at Hanover, but now calls Blackman MMA home, won by guillotine against Ric Humphries in the first round.

And in the main event, Dustin Pague of Blackman MMA lost to Anthony Leone by a north-south choke in the second round.

Jerod said the place, the Zembo Temple, was packed, sold out and there was not a bad seat in the house. "It was a pretty well run thing," he said of promoter Steve Blackman and his crew. "It was a decent night of fights."

Many thanks to Jerod for these results. Complete results should be ready by early next week.

Dustin Pague

MMAinPA.com, Dustin Pague of Hulstine Athletics in Harrisburg defeated William Childs of Team Husky last night at The Smokey Mountain Brawl in Asheville, North Carolina, via arm bar at 1:30 of round one. This makes two wins in two fights in nine days and ups his record to 4-1-0 since turning pro just seven months ago. You can read a post fight interview with Pague after his R.I.E. win here.

You might remember that Childs was the guy who knee-barred Jay Haas at the inaugural Central Pennsylvania Warrior Challenge in April. Also, Pague's second win mentioned above was a rear naked choke on York County's Biff Walizer at the first Respect is Earned event in Oaks, Pa.

One other thing I ran across on the Respect-Is-Earned Web site: Looks like they're planning an event at the Farm Show Complex in Harrisburg on June 20, featuring none other than LionHeart Fighters' Phil "Mr. Wonderful" Davis. Davis, a Penn state All-American, is a light-heavyweight with a 2-0 pro record. Davis also has a fight later this month at an Ultimate Warrior Challenge event. More information on the R-I-E event as it becomes available.
