The following events in this thread occur on July 2nd, 2020 so no references or statements should be made on social media regarding this event until July 2nd, 2020. Due to COVID-19 the press conference will be held via ZOOM.
On GUF season one
''We're excited for the show. The finalists have been chosen and will be entering the house shortly to begin filming. Paul Rossi from TW Combat sports will be leading his team filled with HILITE FC, Tundra MMA and Gunplay MMA guys all on the same team which is going to be crazy. On the other hand, we Jack Nation who has a lot of International Talent on his team who are getting exposure in MMA they haven't ever received before in their home countries. It's a beautiful thing.''
On Paul Rossi vs. Jack Nation TBA
''So here's the situation regarding this fight my friends. Paul Rossi, he wants to move up to the Middleweight division. It seems like he wants to avoid having to fight his teammate and friend Rob Jones. As a result, he's making the move up to 185. And we have Jack Nation who feels that he has one last title run in him and wants to do it at 155. The thing is we don't know if either of these guys can make that cut just yet. So we came up with the idea to have both of them fight at 170 catch weight to see how they feel and hopefully they can make their respective division swaps. With the way the show was being planned these two made the perfect coaches and we had to make this fight happen.''
On the GCC critics
''We let them talk, it's great for our business. We get these little pings on our radar and it's interesting to me like, what is this all about? We don't follow any of their products, we aren't trying to sign any of their fighters, we wish to have zero involvement with these people and continue to mind our own business. We have so much going on here, it's important to keep focus and maintain the quality our subscribers and fans around the world deserve.''
On Rupika Khan and Juanita Sanchez
''This is a huge fight, huge fight. Both of these women are on the cusp of a featherweight title shot and the winner will certainly only add to their case. It's a stacked division and this fight really drives home that point. Recently, Alexia Amauri has rose to prominence after knocking off the former featherweight champ so I haven't made up my mind on anything yet. I know my friends here want a solid answer but I just can't commit to anything yet. We'll see what happens.''
On Misty DeMeans vacating the GCC featherweight championship
''We received the GCC featherweight championship in the mail this morning and can confirm that Misty DeMeans has vacated the GCC championship. The announcement will be made officially during GCC 10 tomorrow night. To all the fans who were excited to watch the fight tomorrow, I am sorry we let you down. We knew it was a risk all things considered but never truly anticipated that in the end Misty DeMeans would take the decision she did. The fight is off and we're still trying to put something together to save the double main event''
On the future of Misty DeMeans in the GCC
''We don't know. Right now, I am not interested in doing business with someone like this. We have stuck our neck out for her when we initially signed her to fight even at the risk of losing out on other talent who didn't want to be associated with her or were too scared to fight her whatever the reasoning behind it is. With her history in this sport justified or not, she has wronged the GCC by not defending her championship like a true champion and as a result has disgraced her own legacy. I am very sad for Misty DeMeans.''
On the GCC Main Event
''This is by far the toughest match up for both men in their careers. Their fighting styles are identical and both men have proven they are capable of ending fights at a high clip. I am going to go on a limb and say that this fight doesn't go the distance and ends up being the fight of the night. As far as predicting a winner? Sorry, friends. Rob Jones has the edge in experience but Vishis Vourture has all the momentum in the world right now. This is an amazing fight. ''
GCC 10 PRESS CALL SOUNDBYTES
Jessica House
''I have been extremely frustrated and angry with how Misty has treated me in the build up to this. All her threats and taunts have had me stressing wondering if I was going to be fighting on this night wondering if I would be getting money to help me out during this time of chaos. Wondering if I would be able to put food on my family table and I can tell you that as a mother that is the worst feeling in the world. It has made me push harder in training even when there is nothing left and I'm ready to give up I remember what she made me feel so I force myself to push back twice as hard. She is going to learn that you don't poke a Mama bear and get away with it!
I want to thank the team at TW Combat for allowing me to switch for Slaughterhouse given the current situation with the world. I want to win it for them and I want to prove that I can go through anything to a champion''
Atara Themis
''This is a prove it fight for me. I have a contract riding on the line. I have a family name to uphold and most of all I have to make it undoubtedly clear to the GCC heads I am not to be ignored.
I am the best thing to happen to this promotion since Misty and the way it looks, she's seeking greener pastures. If I want her laurel, I have to do this bitch's face in.''
