The SC Brand makes it debut into MMA this last Friday on the back of Luke Rockhold at Strike Force Destruction . Luke Rockhold, known for his Jujitsu and ground and pound was matched with Nik Theotikos for Friday’s first televised HDNET Strike Force Destruction fight of the night. As usual Sam Diggs and Ricky Danny were ringside with media passes to check out the nights event. This one was much more important as Ricky Danny’s SC Brand was represented by Luke Rockhold proudly displaying his hometown pride.

The crowd had hints of SC Boys in the air as catcalls from around the arena busted out when Luke was introduced into the ring. Being this was Luke’s first televised fight on HDNET bragging rights were on the line. Once the fight started it was apparent that Luke’s fight name should be “Cool Hand Luke” because it was only a matter of minutes before the SC Local began his ground and pound 2 minutes into the fight

with an eventual submission with rear naked choke.

Sam and I were yelling like crazy as was the pockets of SC boy’s in the crowd when Luke jumped up and claimed his victory.

Here is a post fight interview with Luke Rockhold

Overall super stoked for Luke Rockhold and looking forward to seeing him destroy future opponents in MMA and a proud member of the SC Family.

I know I know its sounds crazy. I love MMA..whether it is UFC, StrikeForce, Elite XC, WEC or any foreign version…I LOVE IT. I have been hooked now for about a year and I usually troll the event as media with my boy Sam Diggs…We went to the Cung Le/Frank Shamrock fight this weekend in San Jose and it was everything and more!!! Cung was outstanding in his performance as always ending the fight with a spinning back fist to high kick which broke Frank Shamrocks arm…crazy!!! And both of these guys hail from San Jose…once in a lifetime. Oddly enough two days before the fight, our company signs an up and coming fighter Luke Rockhold to the SCBrand (website coming soon) and we will be going to his next fight in Washington at the end of May. Look out for Luke to do some interviews on KDON 102.5 www.kdon.com soon (oh yeah I do morning radio with the Morning Madhouse on 102.5 KDON www.kdon.com/pages/rickydanny.htm ) and the SCBrand will be launching some MMA driven merchandise for sale in the Santa Cruz Skate Shop.
