Heavyweight Title Fight Goes Down In Branson This Saturday

  Two Midwest Fight Promotions have joined forces to bring one of the best title fights in local MMA history to the Branson Convention Center on Saturday, October 3rd, 2015. The St. Louis, Missouri based Rumble Time Promotions and the Springfield, Missouri based Adrenaline Fight League have brought together Max McNeely VS. Quinten Goodie in what promises to be a Heavyweight War that MMA fans won't want to miss.
  Max McNeely, the more seasoned veteran of the cage touts a record with 9 wins inside the cage and only 3 losses. McNeely is the current Brawl Inc., and Devistation Fight Club Heavyweight Champion.
  While McNeely is the more seasoned fighter his opponent, Quinten Goodie is undefeated with a record of 4 wins and zero losses. Goodie has finished all of his opponents in devastating fashion with only one of his four bouts lasting longer than one minute.  Some would say that Goodie has had easier opponents than McNeely and that Goodie isn't ready for a fighter of McNeely's caliber and experience.
  McNeely stated that he "has been training for 5 years" while Goodie has only been in the sport for 2 years.  McNeely has an additional advantage in that he is a single man with plenty of time to train while Goodie is a father to his son Quinten Goodie Jr. and also a business man working as a self-made day trader in futures and commodities. Goodie says this won't matter much because he is dedicated to his training even though he has a full plate of commitments and responsibilities outside the gym.
  McNeely who works as a freelance cameraman and video editor says that he "has lots of time for training". When asked what words of wisdom he had for his opponent he said "bring it and let's put on a show".
  McNeely trains and coaches fighters with Gladiator MMA out of Cape Girardeau, Missouri. Goodie trains under Aaron Kimball with TCB Fight Factory out of Rogers, Arkansas.  Both of these athletes are top caliber fighters. When asked his opinion of this matchup, Eric Stevens, promoter for Adrenaline Fight League said "This is the kind of matchup that would leave the odds makers baffled. Both fighters are very big, very strong and very well trained. I just hope they don't break the panels off my cage! This fight has the potential to be one of the most exciting fights you can experience at the local MMA level."
  The card also features a list of local who's who fighters including some very exciting female fights as well as two additional title fights in the Middleweight and Light Heavyweight Divisions. General Admission Tickets will be available at the Branson Convention Center beginning at 6 pm with the first bout scheduled to take place at 7:30pm. Fans seeking VIP Seating accommodations are advised to call 417-448-0758 to reserve premium seating in advance. Any unsold VIP seating will be sold on a first come first serve basis at the door at 6pm.
  Fans who would like to meet some of the fighters are encouraged to attend the weigh-ins which are open to the public. The weigh-ins are set to take place at CJ's Neighborhood Bar & Grill located at 2001 State HWY 248 in Branson beginning at 7pm on Friday evening.
