Quarter Final Round
Troy was matched up against Cyrus Washington who was arguable the biggest standout name in the tournament. Throughout all 3 rounds, Troy was able to control the fight well using his jab and would win via unanimous decision.

Semi Final Round
The next match up would be against Jose Palacios. Much like the first round, Troy was able to control the majority of the fight. His opponent was able to use his angles well but in the end, Troy won via unanimous decision.

Final Round
After 2 long and tough fights, he would meet Michael Mananquil in the final round. This was a really close fight where both competitors engaged in an all out war. They both exchanged a variety of strikes for all 3 rounds. Unfortunately Troy didn’t win the decision from a very close fight.

Troy fought his heart out in 3 grueling battles in one night and represented Team Ultimate like a champion! Be sure to provide him with some positive words when you see him at the gym!

Check out the fight poster posted in this Blog, you’ll see a familiar face there! We’ll keep everyone posted on more details about Joseph’s next fight as we receive them.

In case you haven’t seen it yet, Joseph had an interview with The Fight Network recently that’s posted online.
From the article:
“Toronto’s Joseph ‘Bazooka Joe’ Valtellini might be a new kid on the block in Glory, but just as his name might imply, he arrived with a bang. Valtellini made his debut for the promotion at GLORY 6 Istanbul against Murat Direkci, a guy who boasts a tad bit more ring experience than he does (78 fights worth more experience to be exact). But you wouldn’t be able to tell from the action in the ring, where Valtellini completely outclassed the Turkish vet in his own backyard. It was an emphatic way to step onto the sport’s biggest stage, and he shared his story with…”

“I’ll never leave it to the judges hands. I fight with a lot of power and a lot of excitement.” That is what Joseph Valtellini said at the pre-fight press conference. His words were put into reality during his fight against Murat Direkci the past Saturday April 6th!

Here’s how his match played out:

Round 1 started off strong for Direkci. He was pushing the pace with combinations against Valtellini. Even though Valtellini had his guard up the entire time, a few shots got through that pushed him back. The pace completely changed near the end of the round when Valtellini threw a right hand that knocked Dirkci down. That knock down stole the round for Valtellini.

Round 2 saw Valtellini completely dominate. Direkci didn’t perform the same way he did in round 1. He slowed down and looked to be gassing out. Valtellini spent the entire round lighting up combinations on him, in which he knocked him down twice in the round. One of the knockdowns included an amazing head kick that went over Direkci’s guard.

Round 3 was much like the last round which didn’t last long. After Valtellini landed a combination, Direkci’s corner saw enough and threw in the towel. Joseph Valtellini wins by TKO corner stoppage early into round 3!

This win over Direkci Murat, an athlete who has about 80 more pro fights in experience, is Joseph Valtellini’s biggest victory! Once again this shows that Joseph can compete on the same level as guys who have 10x more experience on paper. This is another win for Team Ultimate and it improves Joseph’s pro record to 8-1.
