Hometown: Rantoul, IL
Training out of: Rantoul, IL
Weight: 283
Height: 6′2
Age: 27
Background: Freestyle
Sponsors: Combat-In-Effect, Smash Fight Wear, Sparta Wear, MMA Blizzard

Record: 0-3
Past-Fight Info and opponents: First opponent was Thomas Forsythe. I lost in 14 seconds to guillotine. Second fight was put on by Matt Hughes and I lost to Rodney “Hercules” Nelson in 36 seconds due to ref stoppage. When the fight started, I went to touch gloves and he hit me. Learned not to assume. My last fight was this past March against 350lbs of Anthony Parigi. I landed every punch I threw but he landed a judo throw on me and I ended up tapping out with 57 seconds left in the first round.
Goals:To get better all around as a fighter. I want to learn all that I can. I want to provide a better means of living for my family but don’t want to work the “9-5 job” to do it. To make it to the UFC, or Strikeforce or whoever is around.
Special Thanks: To God, without him nothing is possible. I’ve done nothing for him while he does everything for me, an awesome God indeed. I’d like to thank all my sponsors, Combat-In-Effect, MMA Blizzard, Sparta Wear, and Smash Fight Wear. I like to thank my training partners at Team Tough in Rantoul. To all my friends that support me. To my wife and kids for giving me the opportunity to pursue this

Professional Boxer, Gabriel Tolmajyan (5-1) sponsored by Combat-In-Effect fought at the “Season’s Beating” boxing event on Saturday December 20, 2008 at Hollywood Park Casino in Inglewood CA.

Super featherweight Gabriel Tolmajyan stopped Andre Kim in the second round of a scheduled six-round bout.

The southpaw Tolmajyan easily outboxed Kim throughout the fight. Kim pressed the action, but would constantly get beaten to the punch by Tolmajyan.

Tolmajyan hurt Kim with a left uppercut to the head in the second round. Referee Ray Corona looked as though he was about to step in and stop the bout a few times, but allowed the action to continue.
Tolmajyan fired a two-punch combination that badly wobbled Kim, prompting Corona to halt the bout at 1:46 of the round.

Tolmajyan, from Glendale, Calif., by way of Yerevan, Armenia, improves to 5-1, 2 KO. Kim, from Sacramento, Calif., falls to 2-3.


Professional Boxer, welterweight Vito Gasparyan(11-1-4) sponsored by Combat-In-Effect fought at the “Season’s Beating” boxing event on Saturday December 20, 2008 at Hollywood Park Casino in Inglewood CA.

Welterweight Vardan Gasparyan (11-1-4, 5 KOs) won a hard-fought six-round unanimous decision over upset-minded Octavio Narvaez.

Narvaez was coming off a hard-fought stoppage loss at the hands of former world champion Vivian Harris. Narvaez was able to score a knockdown over Harris and was hoping to defeat Gasparyan.

Gasparyan had the height and reach advantage, as well as strength over Narvaez. However, it did not deter Narvaez from attempting to work on the inside of Gasparyan. Narvaez pressed forward and was able to sneak counter left hook and right hands to the head of Gasparyan.

However, Gasparyan controlled most of the action in the fight. He was able to land the more effective punches. Gasparyan also boxed from the outside, giving himself some room to throw his punches over his opponent. Despite showing heart, Narvaez slowed down while Gasparyan was the fresher fighter who finished strong until the final bell.

Judges scored the bout 59-55, 59-55, and 60-54 in favor of Gasparyan.

Gasparyan, from Glendale, Calif., by way of Yerevan, Armenia, improves to 11-1-4, 5 KOs. Narvaez, from West Covina, Calif., by way of Chinandega, Nicaragua, drops to 7-6-1, 4 KOs.

I recently left C Co Long Range Surveillance 2-152 R & S Squadron (LRSC) (Airborne) and can’t wait to return after this year long stint in Headquarters.

Special Thanks to
My fiance Sherry Lee for just being who she is,”Boob”, Sean Griffith and John Batey for all their help and support, everyone at Team Demon MMA for turning me into a heartless killer when necessary and especially the sponsors at Combat-In-Effect for doing what they do.
