H2H SHOCKWAVE
Canada vs. Japan, the UK and the USA in World Class Muay Thai!


Calgary has been anticipating the return of world class, quality Muay Thai since the last successful, sold out event, H2H Apocalypse rocked the The Space! The Calgary Amateur Kickboxing & MuayThai Association (CAKMA), the Calgary SUN, and CJAY 92 presents the return of World Class Muay Thai to Calgary on the 23rd of September, 2006!! This event promises to be a knock out. H2H SHOCKWAVE is the 47th event to be sanctioned by the Canadian Muay Thai Council - Amateur (designated Canadian Representative of the International Federation of MuayThai Amateur, World MuayThai Council and World Kickboxing Association).

The Battle for the Answer - Jesse Miles vs. Ian Coe

Canada's Jesse 'Smiles' Miles steps up to the plate against England's Ian Coe. The two athletes were slated to battle at the 2006 IFMA World Championships in Bangkok, Thailand during the quarter final bout. Unfortunately it never happened... but now it will!

Having fought in the 2006 IFMA World Muay Thai Championships in June of this year, Miles was well on his way to a Gold Medal. During Jesse's progress through the eliminations, he fought a tall, tough, and awkward athlete from Iran. The Iranian athlete was to grab Jesse in an illegal back break and injure Jesse's back. Once the athletes were separated from the foul by the referee, Jesse unleashed one of the most vicious knockout's ever seen. A straight right knocked the Iranian athlete out on his feet and a thundering left hook followed up which laid the Iranian out on the canvas for 15 minutes.

With the win Jesse had earned his right into the quarter finals against the UK's Ian Coe. But severe damage had been shelled out to Jesse's back. Once the adrenaline stopped flowing, Jesse could not stand up straight or rotate his torso. After several days of rest, chiropractic work, and Thai massage, Jesse could not continue and had to pull out of the event after KO'ing all his opponents in the tournament, walking away with only a Bronze Medal.

Wanting to know for himself how he could have faired in the event, Miles is slated to square off with England's Ian Coe as scheduled at the IFMA World Championships. If Miles wins this bout then his final quest for the answer will be a match up against the Gold Medal winner, Shawn Yarborough of the USA. "If I win this bout then I want to match up against Shawn (Yarborough). He is a good fighter but... I want to show him what he would have been up against for the Gold had I not been injured. But first.... Ian!"

Miles has a lot to prove to himself in this match and it promises to be a war not to be forgotten!

The card will also feature three top ranked Canadian athletes taking on Muay Thai talent from Japan. Calgary's Scott Clark, Sandra Bastian, and Phil Leier, take on Japan's Yanagawa, Koyanagi, and Nashiro respectively.

Calgary's Muay Thai athletes are world class and will be challenged by the world's best when Japan, the UK and USA set down at H2H Shockwave to uphold their international reputation!!

Looking forward to once again watching Jesse fight!! He is amazing to see. He was well on his way to winning gold in Thailand.Not everyone can say three fights,three knock-outs,so it was crappy to have to watch Jesse pull out due to injury.I predict Jesse to win but i am biased!! Best of luck to all.

Tomorrow on Saturday September 23rd, 2006 starting at 6:00 PM Calgary Plays host to another International Muay Thai Competition H2H SHOCKWAVE presented by
CAKMA and featuring Team Canada athletes against Team Japan, England, the USA and other Canadian athletes

This highly anticipated fight event will be filmed for television play in Canada.

MAIN EVENT
Jason 'The Surgeon' Cutbill takes on his biggest challenge to date, Japan's Kuniyoshi Yanagawa. Having had to step up to the bat because Team Canada's Scott Clark was injured during training, 'The Surgeon' steps up in weight to the Lightheavyweight division (2 divisions) against a higher class international athlete who has almost twice his own fight experience. Yanagawa has fought as high as the heavyweight division so the lighter Cutbill appears to be not much of a problem for the Japanese athlete. Both are pumped and want to experience the thrill of victory and bring the honor of the win home to their country. This will be a very interesting and action packed bout.

CO-SEMI MAIN EVENT
Jesse 'Smiles' Miles gets a chance to answer his biggest competition question against England's Ian Coe. Having been scheduled to fight each other in Bangkok, Thailand in June of this year at the 2006 IFMA World Muay Thai Championships, an unfortunate injury kept these two athletes from answering the question at hand; if they would have met up at the competition, who would have won the fight? Would Miles have moved onto the Gold Medal fight? Coe wants to answer this question here and now, that he would have beaten Miles and that the way the finals transpired in Thailand was correct. Tomorrow night everyone will see if it was or was not. Who should have fought for the Gold Medal?

CO-SEMI MAIN EVENT
Sandra Bastian's homecoming fight features her against a very tough Japanese opponent, Junko Koyanagi. With Bastian winning the IFMA Gold Medal in Thailand and the honors of being awarded the best female athlete of the event in 2006, will she be resting on her laurels and underestimating the Japanese athlete? Koyanagi seems to think so. The Japanese athlete has spent a lot of her career fighting in Thailand so she feels no intimidation from the Canadian girl. She feels she will pressure the Canadian girl all the way to a victory. Tomorrow night will reveal the answer.

UNDER CARD
Misty Sutherland takes on the USA's Melanie 'Flatliner' Kohler-Edwards. This will be a very interesting encounter featuring the athlete who stalks against the athlete who hits and moves. Both athletes have wanted this match for a very long time and both have been training extremely hard for this encounter and both predict wins. The contrasting styles will prove to a key to victory.

Phil 'No Fear' Leier takes on Japan's Yuji NashiroBoth athletes have similar experience. The biggest question on this pressure cooker will be who is in better shape? The predictions rely heavily on this unknown factor. Who will be able to press throughout the fight and come away with the win? Nashiro has made it known that this will be a big win for him. Leier feels he is in great shape and will be able to frustrate his Japanese foe, all the way to victory.

also featuring:
Adam Bronconnier (Calgary) vs. Prince Albert's Shawn Silver
Chris Fair (Calgary) vs. Lethbridge's Mark DeBoer
Kyle Joyce (Calgary) vs. George Habib (Calgary)

H2H SHOCKWAVE INTERNATIONAL MUAY THAI EVENT
Calgary - Saturday September 23rd, 2006
The UFC and The Calgary Stampeders Football club playing at home is very stiff competition for any type of promotion to compete with. But, in what was to be another completely sold out card for the promoters (the Calgary Amateur Kickboxing & Muay Thai Association / CAKMA), the Calgary audience was treated to some great experienced athletes battling it out and also had a chance to look at some of the skill and desire of athletes making their fight debut.
Thanks go out to the incredible support the event received from all the sponsors and also all the people who worked so hard and volunteered so much time to ensure the success of this event. Thank you all!
The Main Event was a 5 round full Muay Thai rules battle between Jason 'The Surgeon' Cutbill (Calgary - Mike Miles Muay Thai) against Kuniyoshi Yanagawa (Tokyo, Japan - Giseikan Gym). Originally, Team Canada's representative for this bout was Scott 'The Pitbull' Clark. 1 and 1/2 weeks before the fight while training on intense pad work, Clark was accidently hit by an elbow which left him cut and unable to fight. Stepping up to the bat for Team Canada and Clark was fellow team-mate Cutbill. All Cutbill's fight experience has been at 165 lbs. and under but on this match he stepped up 15 lbs. and 2 weight divisions. Yanagawa usually fights in Japan around 200 lbs. and he really leaned out for this match, dropping about 20 lbs.! The Japanese had considerably more fight experience than the Canadian and there was a lot of hesitation to see if Cutbill could in fact deal with the weight gain and the more experienced foe.
As the first round opened Cutbill was very tentative. There were a few probing shots from each athlete to test the type of reaction they would get. Every time Yanagawa attacked or flinched, Cutbill would retreat hastily. This made Yanagawa more confident at the beginning of the fight. In the second round, this all changed. Yanagawa was expecting Cutbill to retreat from every attack and every perceived threat, but this was not to be. Cutbill was to answer every attack and every fake. A beautiful tiip (front kick) caught Yanagawa in the face. Angered Yanagawa tried to counter but was to meet some solid opposition. In the third round, the momentum of the fight changed. Cutbill was now pressing forward and working heavily in the clinch with his knees and elbows. The Japanese athlete was not being given the breathing time he needed as the Canadian kept the pressure on. Round 4 saw Cutbill pressuring heavily and forcing Yanagawa backwards. As hard as the Japanese tried to spin or throw Cutbill in the clinch, Cutbill had adapted his tactics and he stuck to his foe like glue. During the final round a straight right caught Yanagawa and really shook him. Cutbill kept the pressure on but Yanagawa showed his ring experience and the Canadian could not finish it. Living up to his nickname, and methodically out striking his opponent, the winner of this International Prestige Bout by unanimous decision was Jason 'The Surgeon' Cutbill.
There were 2 co semi-main events:
Jesse 'Smiles' Miles (Calgary - Mike Miles Muay Thai) squared off against England's Ian Coe (London - Minotaur Muay Thai Gym). This full Muay Thai rules match was supposed to have happened in Thailand in June of this year during a quarter finals bout in the 81 kg. division. A few days before the scheduled Thailand encounter, Miles had squared off against Iran's Nader Sapipour. The taller and extremely aggressive Iranian had caught Miles in an illegal back break on the ropes and injured the Canadian's back. With the adrenaline still flowing, Miles came back with a vicious punch combination and knocked the Iranian athlete out cold. The damage was done and sporting a bulging disc in his back Miles had to withdraw from his scheduled bout against Coe. Tonight was to be the night where both athletes wanted to find out the result had they faced each other. Unbeknownst to the crowd, this bout was on the verge of being postponed as well as Miles had busted up his foot. But with the loss of Scott Clark fighting on the card, Miles stepped up for the bout, and battled through the injury. This bout was very much a game of Ian Coe trying to press forward and catch Miles. Miles was to fight a defensive game. Not running, but striking and/or faking and then angling throughout the fight. He was rarely directly in front of his foe's strikes. Some excellent shots were delivered by Miles who snapped Coe's head with some very powerful punches. In the clinch Miles was to control the majority of these by either tossing Coe to the canvas, or by striking and nullifying the English athlete's kneeing attempts. Coe had come to battle and tried to catch the Canadian but just only on a few occasions did he actually find his mark. Miles used a smart battle plan by conserving his energy and landing strikes that caused damage, countering very effectively and controlling the gap. Miles a kicker, hardly kicked at all due to his foot injury but still won the bout. The winner of the bout by unanimous decision was Jesse Miles. Miles was also to win the prestigious Roy Lilley Memorial Award as the Best In Town Athlete of the Event.
The other co semi main event was Sandra 'Heart' Bastian (Calgary - Mike MIles Muay Thai), the Woman's 60 kg. Gold Medalist at the IFMA World Championships in Bangkok. She faced Japan's Junko Koyanagi (Tokyo, Japan - Ihara Gym). As the bout opened the Japanese girl was to try and deliver her strikes from the outside and then move. Bastian was to walk through the strikes (though she did get hit with a lot of tiip's) and get inside and completely over power her foe. During the first round several hard knees were to land in the clinch to the chest of Koyanagi. They were strong enough to drop the Japanese athlete to the ground. Several right hands gained the respect Bastian needed and the remainder of the fight was Bastian pursuing Koyanagi. Towards the end of the second round, Bastian had dropped her foe 5 times during the bout and three times during the round and the referee had no choice but to follow the rules and end the fight with Bastian winning by TKO.
The undercard featured the following bouts:
Calgary's Misty Sutherland (Mike Miles Muay Thai) stepped into the ring in a much anticipated bout against the USA's Melanie Kohler-Edwards (Salt Lake City - Wicked Ways Muay Thai). The bout opened with Sutherland looking very calm and picking off Kohler-Edwards shots. Sutherland took her time and intercepted with very effective crosses which landed during many of the American girls attacks. Kohler-Edwards did not dance as much as was expected and this played to Sutherland's advantage who was methodical in her tactics during this fight. As the bout progressed Sutherland was to pick up her intensity with combinations forcing the American girl back to the ropes on the receiving end of some very strong combinations. In round three Sutherland swarmed her opponent with a relentless attack of punches, kicks, elbows and knees that were scoring and which Kohler-Edwards did not respond to. As the referee stopped the bout for a standing 8 count given to the American, her coach threw in the towel and the fight was over. Sutherland was to win the bout by a third round TKO over the game Kohler-Edwards. Sutherland will be missed during the next 5 months while she schools in Germany.
Calgary's Phil 'No Fear' Leier (Mike Miles Muay Thai) squared off against Japan's Yuji Nashiro (Osaka, Japan - Ihara Gym). Nashiro is the brother of the highly famed Japanese boxer and professional WBA World Flyweight Boxing Champion, Nobuo Nashiro. This bout was to open explosively and viciously as well. As the bell rang for round one, Leier went to touch gloves with his foe who ignored the sign of respect and delivered a succession of very hard and very fast roundhouse kicks. Nashiro seemed to decide he was going to win this fight and win it quickly. Stunned and rocked by the onslaught Leier was to somewhat settle down and start fighting back. Towards the end of the first round Nashiro looked to be breathing hard and many were to wonder if in fact he had not delivered what he had. However in round two he started with the same onslaught. Leier tried to get inside around the hands but was to take a shot which sent him crashing to the canvas. Beating the count, Leier was to survive until the bell. In the third round, Nashiro went for the gusto with a heavy onslaught of punches and kicks not letting Leier out of his corner. Battered and bleeding and unable to defend himself, Leier was disappointed when the referee had decided enough was enough. Nashiro was to win this bout by a third round TKO. Nashiro was also to win the Roy Lilley Memorial Award for the Best Visiting Athlete trophy. Apologies go out to Mr. Nashiro because as the officials first announced his name as the winner of the award, he was called Mr. Yanagawa. This was to be rectified for the television and the venue audience.
In his fight debut Calgary's Adam Bronconnier (Mike Miles Muay Thai) stepped into the ring against Shawn Silver (Prince Albert, Saskatchewan / Aurora Training Center under Mr. Wolfgang Manicke) who had a fight record of 2 wins and 1 loss. The audience was right into this bout just like these two athletes were ring veteran's, screaming their vocal support for Bronconnier. Bronconnier was not to disappoint as he stood with the experienced Silver tooth and nail throughout the duration of the bout. It was obvious Bronconnier wanted to fight Muay Thai rules (but this was a kickboxing rules bout), by the clinch he adopted on Silver as they came into close range. Shawn Silver was to win the bout by unanimous decision... but Bronconnier was to earn a ton of fans and respect with this his debut bout.
Also making his fight debut was Calgary's Chris Yalbir (Mike Miles Muay Thai) against Kelowna's Jesse Delaney (Avatar Martial Arts). The Kelowna athlete had fought 3 times under MMA rules and this was apparent with his style during the progress of the bout. Yalbir remained very clam throughout this encounter and landed the strongest blows. Funnily enough he threw only a few punches throughout the encounter and when he did they landed very effectively. "I do not understand why he did not punch more because when he did they landed strong", said corner man Trevor Smandych. The bout went the distance with Delaney giving a very good showing and accounting of himself. Yalbir was to walk away with the unanimous decision.
The opening bout was between Calgary's Chris Fair (Mike Miles Muay Thai) and Lethbridge's Mark Deboer (Progressive Fighting Academy / Brad Wall). The opening of this bout had Fair chasing the younger Deboer around the ring looking for a knockout. But Deboer kept his head and weathered the storm. He was to catch the Calgarian as he moved in with several head kicks during the progress of the bout. Several dropped the Calgarian. Fair seemed to give it his all in the first round and just could not recover for the remainder of the bout. The winner by unanimous decision was Lethbridge's Mark Deboer. A great weather the storm and the press strategy!
Originally scheduled to battle was also Calgary's Kyle Joyce (Mike Miles Muay Thai) against George Habib (Calgary / Lion's Den). Unfortunately one athlete could not get his blood work in on time and as a consequence the bout was scratched from the line up. With or without this bout, the audience was treated to some great fights and the evening ended up early enough with fans being able to go and do something else before the night was done!
Up next, the H2H 8 Man Lightheavyweight Muay Thai Tournament on Saturday December 2nd, 2006 which will also be filmed for television. This event will feature Canada's Scott Clark in a tournament against athletes from the Orient, and North America. There will be 3 Superfights including Sandra Bastian and Nate Smandych. Tickets will be on sale starting at the beginning of October. For further information please call CAKMA's Mr. Robin Finley at (403) 999-9567 or Mike Miles Muay Thai & Kickboxing Ltd. at (403) 244-8424.

On behalf of the Minotaur Gym (UK) and Ian Coe, we would like to offer our thanks to Ajarn Mike Miles and CAKMA for providing this opportunity to fight on this prestigous show.

We was very impressed by the professionalism shown by the officials, CAKMA and Team Miles from the moment we arrived in Calgary to the moment we departed to go back home.

Thank you for all the support shown to us Brits and respect shown for this event.

This was an extremely hard bout for Ian, this being his 11th contest and only 3rd 5 round bout. It was a great fight.

We very much feel that we have made some good friends during this event, if any of the team in Canada need help from us as a contact in the UK, please feel free to get in touch. It would be a pleasure to assist in anyway we can.

We look forward to working with you guys in the future. Take care.
