XTREME FIGHT EVENTS presented CAGE WARS VIII: HOUSE OF PAIN on Friday, July 29, 2011, at the House of Blues in the Showboat Casino in Atlantic City, New Jersey.

In the main event, Ring of Combat veteran J.A. Dudley scored a majority decision victory over Brendan "Brutal" Barrett to capture the vacant XFE Heavyweight Championship. Former UFC announcer and longtime MMA judge Jeff Blatnick scored the fight a draw, but both other judges saw the fight for Dudley. After starting his MMA career a miserable 1-6, Dudley has now won 3 out of his last 4 fights. Barrett, on the other hand, has just a single victory in his last 7 fights.

In the co-main event, Anthony "Showtime" Leone's struggles continued. The Team Bombsquad fighter won his first 8 fights, but has since lost 5 out of 6 fights. Leone was choked unconscious by Pennsylvanian Brylan VanArtsdalen for the XFE Featherweight Championship. VanArtsdalen made his MMA debut in Bellator, but got choked out by Rich De Los Reyes. VanArtsdalen has since won 5 straight fights in the minor leagues.

RFC 24 RESULTS: James Hammortree Nails a Decision, John Cofer Cuffs a Submission - Word Play Galore in Tampa, FL - 7/29/11

REAL FIGHTING CHAMPIONSHIPS 24: EXPLOSION was held Friday, July 29, 2011, at the A La Carte Pavillion in Tampa, Florida.

Originally, John Cofer was supposed to fight Tiger World's Patrick Cenoble in the main event, but instead Cofer fought the 1-1 Ryan DeRocher lower down the card and The Ultimate Fighter 11 alum James "Sledge" Hammortree was elevated to the main event against the 1-2 Joe Johnson. Needles to say, both Hammortree and Cofer won their respective fights, however, both had to work for their victories against inexperienced fighters who were nonetheless game. This was Hammortree's first fight since being released from the UFC over a year ago.

In the co-main event, 21-year-old bantamweight Geane Herrera improved his record to 3-0 in less than a minute with a submission over journeyman Calvin Martin.

In the makeshift main event, former KOTC champion Clay French edged out Titan poster boy "The" James Krause by split decision. This was French's second straight split decision victory and his third overall win in a row, following a rough patch where French lost 4 out of 5 fights. After starting his career a perfect 10-0, the 6'2" lightweight Krause has won just twice in his last 6 fights.

KING OF THE CAGE: SHOCKWAVE was held Saturday, July 23, 2011, at the Gold Country Casino in Oroville, California.

In the main event, former Strikeforce fighter Jeremiah Metcalf submitted Marcus Gaines in the second round with a rear-naked choke. Gaines has now lost a whopping 8 straight fights and hasn't won since submitting Jason Von Flue on July 23, 2009, two years ago to the date.

Speaking of awful losing streaks, Charles "Kid Khaos" Bennett, the artist formerly known as Krazy Horse, lost his fifth straight fight in the co-main event. The man who once knocked out KJ Noons in EliteXC has now won just twice in his last 10 fights. The infamous Bennett is said to have been taking training seriously for the first time in his career, however, the results remain the same. Matt "The Kamikaze Kid" Muramoto choked out Bennett in the first round.

CFFC 10 RESULTS: 'The Surgeon' Chip Pollard Cuts Open Joey Rivera to Win 170-Pound Gold in Atlantic City - 7/23/11

CAGE FURY FIGHTING CHAMPIONSHIPS 10: PINK EYE was held Saturday, July 23, 2011, at the Resorts Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City, New Jersey. The event, originally title Black Eye, was renamed Pink Eye to incorporate a breast-cancer awareness fundraiser.

In the main event, Joey "Boom Boom" Rivera, a dual CFFC champion at both 185-pounds and 170-pounds, lost for the first time in his career in his first attempt to defend his recently-won CFFC Welterweight Championship. Chip "The Surgeon" Moraza-Pollard used a jab to open up a cut under Rivera's eye in the second round. The cut continued to bleed profusely through the third round, after which the ringside physician called an end to the fight. Pollard, who was a late replacement in this fight and coming off back-to-back losses, has totally reversed his fortunes and is now the new CFFC Welterweight Champion.
