“The Crank” | Welcome Home

8 12 2008

From the Saipan Tribune: “I came back for the holidays so I could spend time with the family and friends during the holidays. I also came down to help with Trench Tech and Trench Warz IX.”

Trench Tech president Cuki Alvarez was in the airport, along with Camacho’s father, Frank Sr., Trench Tech head instructor Tetsuji Kato, and the gym’s vice president Randy Taylor, to welcome The Crank home.

Alvarez said he is already looking forward to Camacho showing them the latest MMA techniques. It can be recalled that Camacho fought and won in a couple of Jiu Jitsu tournaments in the mainland.

“Franklin will be here for a whole month training at the Trench Tech gym and showing us advanced skills he learned in Maryland at Lloyd Irvin’s BJJ Academy. He will also be signing autographs and be a special guest referee on fight night. Interested Jiu Jitsu practitioners are welcome to come train at the Trench Tech Gym for only $35 a month,” he said.

“The Crank” set to referee Trench Warz IX

4 12 2008

From the Saipan Tribune: Frank “The Crank” Camacho will be the third man inside the octagon in Trench Warz IX: The Annihilation’s main event between Kelvin “The Big Hit” Fitial and Rueben “The Booben” Quinata.

Trench Tech president Cuki Alvarez said the former Universal Reality Combat Championships light heavyweight champion is returning to Saipan fresh from winning a gold medal in the No Gi competition of a North American Grappling Association tournament in New Jersey.

“Frank will be returning to Saipan for Trench Warz IX: The Annihilation set for Dec. 12. He will be in attendance on fight night as a special guest referee for some of the undercard fights and for the main event fight. Frank recently competed in the 170-179 lbs. intermediate division and won gold in No Gi and a bronze in Gi,” he said.

Alvarez said the other referee for Trench Warz IX: The Annihilation will be James Revila, who has officiated a couple of Trench Tech’s events in the past.

While Camacho and Revila will have the unenviable task of trying to separate MMA fighters inside the ring, Alvarez said the job of judging the matches will fall on the capable hands of three gentlemen- Dave Celis Sr., John Blanco, and L.J. Castro.

Alvarez said Celis is a boxing annalist and former Saipan Boxing Federation board member, while Blanco is a known MMA activist and consultant. Castro, meanwhile, is a famous local radio personality and DJ and is an MMA superfan.

AnnihilationFrom the Saipan Tribune: The main event is between Kelvin “The Big Hit” Fitial and Rueben “The Booben” Quinata.  Manny “The Enforcer” Chong has pulled out of the competition to give way to work assignment at his office.  Chong works at the Guam Police Department, which is said to be short on manpower.  Trench Tech also said Chong might leave off island during the day of the competition to attend a seminar for the police department.

Aside from the Saipan-Guam main event featuring Marianas Elite’s Fitial and Spike 22 Fight Academy’s Quinata, Trench Warz IX: The Annihilation will have Marianas Elite’s Myron “The Natural” San Nicolas going up against Team Predators’ “Brutal” Bryson Sablan in the semi main event.

“Allow ourselves to introduce……ourselves.”

4 12 2008

Rockus is derived from ruckus, meaning: a disturbance; a commotion, which in many cases is a factor resulting in a fight or match.  The rock in this silly, made-up word, pertains to the Mariana Islands such as Guam and Saipan.  Put two and two together and the product is: A blog that serves the local MMA and Grappling Community of the Marianas and its Affiliate Countries and States!

We decided to take on this project simply because quite frankly, NO ONE IS REALLY DOING IT!  Sure there are plenty of info on these industries, with regards to the Locals, however, it’s allover the place and usually difficult and/or tedious to locate.  So why not compile everything onto a single site where enthusiasts of the rapidly growing and awesome sport(s) can be visually and audibly entertained with the latest MMA and Grappling News, Interviews, Results, Videos, & More?!  It’s the perfect portal for not so savvy Internet users and eliminates the need to search around.  In addition, this is purely being done out of pride and passion.

With all due respect, Rockus looks forward to your electronic interactions.  Just like Fokai states, our mission is: To promote Guam and the Mariana Islands as a proven cultivating venue for action sports enthusiasts. Thank you for your time and welcome to the kuxica(crazy) world of Rockus!

JOIN THE MOVEMENT, SUPPORT THE CAUSE.

Enjoy!
