(PRWEB) November 1, 2006 -- Possibly saving its most punishing episode to last, BodogFight, the cutting edge mixed martial arts (MMA) showcase, anoints the last member of Team USA in the series finale on Tuesday. Celebrated wrestling champion Chael Sonnen is pitted against "Crazy" Tim Credeur when the episode airs on the Men's Outdoor and Recreation channel, DISH network, Comcast, Cox, Time Warner, and online at bodogfight.com. BodogFight, the brainchild of digital entertainment mogul Calvin Ayre and a production of the Bodog.com Entertainment Group, has been a hit with viewers and promises a series finale on Halloween that will be a spectacular treat.
"Right from his arrival, Chael made it very clear that he wanted to be the toughest fighter on BodogFight," says Calvin Ayre, Founder of the vast Bodog.com digital entertainment empire and creator of a number of reality television series, including Bodog Salutes the Troops and Calvin Ayre Wild Card Poker, both of which aired on the mainstream channel, Spike TV. "To be the toughest fighter, Chael has to get past Tim Credeur, a tactician in his own right. Fans should expect another thrilling fight."
Sonnen was born into an accomplished sporting family in West Lynn, Oregon. His mother was a seven-time trap-shooting champion and her son had a quick ascent in his two sports. He rose through the ranks of competitive wrestling while simultaneously progressing into MMA. Training with Team Quest, one of the sport's most accomplished fighting groups, Sonnen has perfected his Vale Tudo fighting style under the watchful eyes of Olympic silver-medalist Matt Lindland, four-time UFC champion Randy Couture, and Pride idol Dan Henderson. With all the necessary tools in his arsenal, Sonnen has the skill to become the world's next MMA phenomenon.
His BodogFight opponent, whose "Crazy" nickname is based on his insane rolling technique and inability to calm down, has also been trained by some of MMA's most recognizable names. Credeur's teachers include Rodrigo Medeiros, a Gracie pupil and five-time Brazilian champion as well as a renowned Jiu-Jitsu master. With an established reputation, Credeur co-founded Revolution Dojo, a training center focused on Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai and "Thug Jitsu," a new fighting style quickly gaining popularity in MMA circles.
With the fighters meeting for the first time, this bout has the potential to explode on the canvas. The winner advances to Team USA, the loser returns home to recoup from defeat.
Will this match reveal the toughest combatant and crown the BodogFight favorite fighter? Viewers will soon be able to cast their votes for the $50,000 prize at www.bodogfight.com, where biographies of all the fighters, exclusive footage, and unedited interviews and confrontations are readily available and continuously updated each week. Each of the episodes will air simultaneously on the Men's Outdoor and Recreation channel and on the BodogFight.com broadband network.
Driving its way into international territory and garnering a worldwide fan base, the incredibly popular BodogFight series is available in 43 million homes across America on Men's Outdoor and Recreation, DISH Network, Comcast, Cox, Time Warner and online at BodogFight's official website, bodogfight.com. Elimination battles, behind-the-scenes training, interviews with fighters, a soundtrack featuring Bodog Music artists, and lifestyle segments compose the weekly one-hour BodogFight episodes, with Tuesday's finale leading into the PPV main event that takes place later this year. The finale features an incredible 10-bout fight card consisting of three massive super fights and the spectacular USA vs. Russia showdown.
