Gerry Gionco presents NOVEMBER STORM in Fight at the View VIII, featuring kickboxing champion Kiarash Moghaddam in an mma matchup, Team Bad Boy Outreach MMA Light Heavyweight Champion James Hanson, Minna Kim, the Tumback Twins, and more. Be there with the action at the Fraserview Hall, 8240 Fraser Street. Fights start at 8:00.
| Style & Weight | Blue | Def. | Loss | Reason | |
| 1 | MMA lightweight 150lbs | Kevin Madrid Mendoza Fight Team Surrey BC | Def. | Trevor Thorton Crisis MMA Olympia WA | Madrid made good use of knee strikes while up that finally took Thorton down in round 2. Thorton Dominated in round 1 however. Madrid would get the win by tapout by rear naked choke. |
| 2 | MMA Bantamweight 135 lbs | Olivier Evansher, Universal Martial Arts Vancouver BC | Def. | Mat Shannon, independent, Maple Ridge BC | A drubbing by Oliver Evansher ending at 53 seconds by chokeout. Nice body slams! |
| 3 | Muay Thai Welterweight 147 lbs | Terrance Viloria Mendoza Fight Team Surrey BC | Def. | Pat Alec North Shore Fight Team North Vancouver BC | Bit of a delay for the judges on this one. A split decision goes to Terrance Viloria, who poured on great action on Alec in the third round and took his game apart. |
| 4 | Muay Thai Heavyweight 205 lbs | Lloyd Kenny, Williams Lake Muay Thai Williams Lake BC | Def. | David Correa Crisis MMA Olympia Wa | 1:27 Round Correa took a knee and his corner conceded. Kenny looked tight and had hard flurries for Correa. Early on, Correa who is more of an mma player, did not look like an organized kickboxer. Usually we hear about the other way around, where kickboxers dont make a good transition into MMA. |
| 5 | Muay Thai Middleweight 165 lbs | Stas Tatarinov WACHAL’S Martial Arts Surrey BC | Def. | Andrew Munro Independent Port Coquitlam BC | Tatarinov wins by referee stoppage after a standing eight count. |
| 6 | Muay Thai Western Canadian Welterweight Title | Tom Mattu WKX Surrey BC | Def. | Leigh T. Mueller Canada’s Best Karate Victoria BC | Tom Mattu wins by Judges unanimous decision. Mattu’s kick landing must have been a deciding factor in this championship matchup. |
| 7 | MMA NAC Flyweight Title | Cheryl Chan Mendoza Fight Team Surrey BC | Def. | Jamie Gonzales Charlie’s Fight Club Everett, Wa | Tapout by triangle choke and armbar in round 2. We saw a case of how working a fighter in guard up against a cage doesnt work that way with a roped ring. The fight had to be brought back to the center and stood up a number of times. Chan just bided her time and showed off a win buy triangle from the bottom position. |
| 8 | MMA Middleweight 175 lbs | Edward Banezik Surrey Martial Arts Academy | Def. | Marquez Bryant Crisis MMA Olympia WA | Bryant did not pass physical, so the fight was conceded to Baneziek. |
| 9 | Muay Thai Welterweight 145lbs | Josh Jauncey WKX Surrey BC | Def. | Chris Ferguson Mas Thai Boxing Cambridge Ont. | Jauncey took out Ferguson quickly with a standing eight count before the first minute and then put him down again to end the fight at 1:50 of round 1. |
| 10 | MMA NAC Welterweight Title | Cass Young Team Bad Boy Outreach Surrey BC | Def. | Brett Lucero Crisis MMA Olympia Wa | Broken nose and bloody, Cass managed to keep dominant on Lucero. Judges unanimous decision. |
| 11 | Muay Thai NAC Light Cruiserweight Title | Adam Blanchette Iron City Muay Thai Vancouver BC | Def. | Martello Jones Ottawa Academy of Martial Arts Ottawa On | Adam Blanchette wins by judges unanimous decision. Blanchette kept a hard and tough clinch game on Jones for much of the match. |

Justin Pierrot met up with the fighters from this championship night to get their impressions post fight.
Claude Sanders vs Adrian Gomez
Claude Sanders: This is what I train for… scoring with his leg kicks is what I train for, makes it painful for him if he doesnt block them.
Iouri Saveliev vs Lute Ganeif
Iouri Saveliev: I remember most of it, happens so fast, hard to remember. Took a hard right at one point. In my training I practiced a lot of Jiu-jitsu, heard my coach calling pass pass pass, got the armbar, and next thing I know that was it.
Terrance Viloria vs Justin Viejou
Terrance Viloria: I should have worked my jab more, but a fight’s a fight. I heard he was lanky, long, … The first leg kick I had on him hurt him so I thought if this works I should do this more.
Navi Marzary vs Jeremy Neufeld
Navi Marzary: I fought him once before, he stopped half way through the first round. I dont know why he wanted a rematch, so I wasnt expecting it to go long.
Ricky Keohavong vs Ab Shubear
Ricky Keohavong: I trained hard for a different fighter, for 194 he pulled out at the last minute and this guy was 230, but I am a fighter, so I’ll take the fight.
Novic Pavic vs Jordan Howes
Novic Pavic: Didnt win the way I wanted to, didnt show all my skills, but I’m still happy with the win.
Robin Laybourne vs Lloyd Kenny
Robin Laybourne: I am grateful for my trainers, Caleb Starnes, 120 friends in the audience, lots of people get surprised by the agility of such a big guy, training with good guys is the only way that I won.
Sasha Tadayoni vs Jean Allard
The Referee would call and end to the fight after the third knockdown at the end of round 1. Tatayoni, a Kyokushin karate practitioner, showed of dynamite leg kicks including a triple combination that was lightning fast, had to be seen.
Tony Vaga vs Matt Riley
Tony Vaga: I really took it to my opponent, I wasnt sure why the fight was stood up when it should have been called.
Hardeep Saran vs Toby Cleary
Hardeep Saran: Going into the fight I was confident, had a good game plan. Inder Bisla helped me a lot with my kicks.
Josh Jauncey vs Ruel Copeland
Josh Jauncey: We knew he was going to fight quite Thai style… he was heavy on his legs; I wasnt able to get him with the inside low kick. After this I am looking to fight in the Netherlands in the future.
Stas Tatarinov vs Alan Day
Stas Tatarinov: I blocked some leg kicks, that’s why I have some bruises… the guy towered over him in the ring a bit, and I took the fight for the challenge.
James Hansen vs Chad Gerow
James Hansen: It wasnt so much of a battle of attrition, we really tried to feel out each other in the first round, we didnt push our pace and I picked my shots. I will be back in the gym right away for a fight under Master Song.
Jesse Rice-Jones vs Alfonso Cavero
Cavero almost had Rice-Jones in a rear naked choke but Jones was able to get out of it and to his feet after a monumental struggle. He was able to corner Cavero and pound him out to win by referee stoppage in round 1.

Here are the photos from Gionco’s fight night main card for a Canadian Amateur Muay Thai Title match between Kiarash Moghaddam of Versus Training Centre in Vancouver and Nick Bautista from Siam No. 1 in Toronto.
After the fight, Justin Pierrot interviewed Kiarash Moghaddam to find out what he had to say about his victory over Nick Bautista…
It seems like Nick Bautista didn’t really have much of an answer for to your leg kicks tonight. He seemed to be shying away from your punches. Were you expecting that kind of reaction?
Three years ago I fought (Bautista’s) his coach, he won unanimously… After that fight I went to Thailand… I trained so hard. Tonight I just wanted to prove that I changed… it was a great fight.
You had a very calculated style in there, you kept him at a distance, you were snapping off those brutal looking leg kicks, was that all part of your strategy?
He wanted to clinch and do leg kicks – so I wanted to to do boxing. Clinch he didn’t have a chance, boxing he didn’t have a chance… all he did was low kicks and front kicks, he was a tough guy, he has a tough coach, but I’ve got the best coaching, I’ve got the best best support team… so lucky to have that.
| Style & Weight | Win | Def. | Loss | Reason | |
| 1 | Muay Thai, Super Lightweight 135lbs | Claude Sanders, Ostovic’s Gym, Sunshine Coast, BC | Def. | Adrian Gomez, Clinch 4 Life Burnaby BC | Judges Unanimous decision, good exchanges between fighters, Sanders was just more dominant and Gomez was on the run from Sanders much of the time. |
| 2 | MMA, Featherweight 145lbs | Iouri Saveliev, Suitela Fight Club, Surrey BC | Def. | Lute Ganeif WKX, Surrey BC | Iouri Saveliev went for a takedown in round one and stuffed a kick with his head. He may have even been out for a moment. Ganief had him hard for the rest of the round and Saveliev was in trouble until the bell. Round two started with Ganeif waiting for a cagey opponent, who got things going again by making that same takedown that almost got him killed in the first round. While Lute worked the bottom, Saviliev just kept in in control with strikes until Ganeif had to turn and gave up an arm. Iouiri was lucky not to lose it considering what happend in round 1. 2:22 Round 2 Submission by armbar for Saveliev. |
| 3 | Muay Thai Super Welterweight 150lbs | Terrance Viloria, Mendoza Fight Team, Surrey BC | Def. | Justin Viejou Team HAVOK Kelowna BC | Viloria would take it by judges unanimous decision. Probably a nice sweep in round 3 got it for him, and while they both showed hard signs of gas, Viloria just got a bit more in over Justin Viejou. |
| 4 | Muay Thai Super Middleweight 175lbs | Navi Marzary Universal Martial Arts Vancouver BC vs Asuncion, Paraguay | Def. | Jeremy Neufeld EKKERT Fight Team | Round 3 referee stoppage, the fighter could not continue after an accidental head butt. Win awarded to Marzary. |
| 5 | Muay Thai, Heavyweight 195lbs | Rakinrah ‘Ricky’ Keohavong | Def. | Ab Shubear, independent, New Westminster, BC. | A win for Ricky Keohavong at 24 seconds of round 1 by knockout, by ONE PUNCH. |
| 6 | Muay Thai Light Heavyweight 170lbs | Novic Pavic Suitela Fight Club Surrey BC | Def. | Jordan Howes Island Warriors, Campbell River BC | The doctor stoppage was called due to a sizeable cut opened up above Howes right eye. |
| 7 | MMA Heavyweight | Robin Laybourn Aegis Athletics Richmond BC | Def. | Lloyd Kenny Williams Lake BC | Laybourn wins by judges unanimous decision. Laybourn was a bigger of the two fighters and had Caleb Starnes in his corner. Laybourn won Kenny on takedowns and mount control, and a couple of dazzling high kicks thrown in through the fight. |
| 8 | Muay Thai Light Heavyweight 175lbs | Sasha Tatayoni WACHAL’S Martial Arts Surrey BC | Def. | Jean Allard Rising Phoenix, Sunshine Coast, BC. | The Referee would call and end to the fight after the third knockdown at the end of round 1. Tatayoni, a kyokushin karate practitioner, showed of dynamite leg kicks including a triple combination that was lighning fast, had to be seen. |
| 9 | Boxing 160lbs exhibition | Raj Dillan, Harrison Boxing Richmond BC | Ex. | Kanyon Gleeson Williams Lake Muay Thai, Williams Lake BC. | Exhibition Match |
| 10 | MMA Bantamweight 135 lbs | Tony Vaga Columbia Martial Arts, Burnaby, BC | Def. | Mat Riley Shannon, Independent, Vancouver BC | Vaga would win by referee stoppage due to unreturned blows early in round 1. Apparently, Shannon looks to train in street fights and thinks all that gyms want is money. The fight looked done, it appeared that the referee had called the fight after Vaga and Shannon clashed for the second time and he went down…. apparently not defending himself. The ref let the fight continue to the surprise of the crowd… but it was quickly over after that. |
| 11 | Muay Thai Super Middleweight 165 lbs | Hardeep Saran Bisla Martial Arts Surrey BC | Def. | Toby Cleary, Carlson Gracie MMA Maple Ridge BC | A devastating round kick to the head at the start of round 2 would finish off Cleary for good. Saran had already sent him to the mat in round 1. |
| 12 | Muay Thai Welterweight 147 lbs | Josh Jauncey WKX, Surrey BC | Def. | Ruel Copeland, SIAM No. 1 Toronto, Ontario | A super exciting fight with heavy, fast and hard exchanges. Jauncey got the win by unanimous judges decision. |
| 13 | Muay Thai, Light Heaveyweight 170lbs | Stas Tatarinov WACHAL’S Martial Arts, Surrey BC | Def. | Alan Day, Independent, Vancouver BC | Stats Tatarinov dominated and won by judges unanimous decision. |
| 14 | Muay Thai Super Middleweight BC Title | James Hansen Team Bad Boy Outreach Surrey BC | Def. | Chad Gerow Revolution Langley BC | Hansen dominated and had control of the whole fight. Laid it on hard in round 3 to seal the deal. Win by judges unanimous decision. |
| 15 | MMA Light Heavyweight 205lbs | Jesse Rice-Jones G-Force Vancouver BC | Def. | Alfonso Cavero Team KARMA Vancouver, BC | Cavero almost had Rice-Jones in a rear naked choke but Jones was able to get out of it and to his feet after a monumental struggle. He was able to corner Cavero and pound him out to win by referee stoppage in round 1. |
| 16 | Muay Thai Heavyweight Canadian Title | Kiarash Moghaddam, Versus Training Centre, Vancouver BC. | Def. | Nick Bautista SIAM No. 1 Toronto | Kirash would win a long deserved Canadian title, a feat he has been training for years to achieve. He has come back from previous defeats against a SIAM No. 1 prospect, and his win and loss against Mike Downey to come out as one of the best amateur fighters in his style and division in Canada. |
