These bouts have been moved to the 18th of October...Machine
Actually, the 18th is a separate card and I will be posting the update on that card very soon.
Asim is working with both cards but no bouts have been moved from one to the other.
That is correct, the bouts have been moved to October 18th. This fight is not happening on the 27th! I am 100% positive about that.
I have just been informed by the Promoter that the Norfolk card will be rescheduled due to 2 deaths in the family.
My condolences go out to Big Al and his family.
The Oct 18th show in Springfield is a separate show.

Two deaths or two tickets sold so far?
This is some terriable match making.I will make sure I find something to do the night of this card.
Wack show ain't happenin! Thats the way VA works. They give anyone with the fee a promotor license. Bad, bad, bad for the sport.
No, what's bad for the sport is all you 'anons' trying to tear down people who are trying to promote the sport they love.
What's bad is a certain group of individuals seeing others as a threat or competition and posting negative comments about 'a show' and instead of having the decency to support a person who suffered a loss.
You 'anons' are pathetic.

Asim,
I would love to see Andre, Edward and Dorin fight! I might try to make the trip if I can.
Don't sweat the anonegatives. You are light to the dark.
Thanks Linda.
I just got off the phone with Al.
His family is going thru a very rough time now. Despite that he still took the time to call me because he was concerned about the show.
As for the show...he is intent on rescheduling in Oct date tbd.
It seems that most of the fights will hold together. Many thanks to the fighters, trainers, and managers I've spoken to.
Hope to see you at this show Linda and as well as Oct 18th. Also- we're doing another aikido seminar in Nov. Pls call me.
Asim
