Preview's of some of the event bouts:
Ladies and gentleman, KSL Ultimate Beatdown brings you THE greatest main-event in the HISTORY of Ultimate Beatdown: "The Vanilla Gorilla" takes on "The Minion".
"Jun Minion", a Filipino monster, wants to take Malaysia by storm and wreck the division into pieces, walking into the sunset with that beautiful belt strapped around his waist. He made his debut by absolutely destroying Putera Rudy by putting on a beatdown, and forcing the tapout via rear-naked choke. The crowd was in shock, his opponents fans were horrified, and the Filipino donned a big, evil smile on his face. But is he ready for what's next, in the opening rounds of the Road To Glory tournament? Is he ready for the lean-mean, Nutella-eating machine? Is he ready for... "The Vanilla Gorilla"?
Brad "The Vanilla Gorilla" Robinson is no stranger to the MMA scene in Asia. He is a coach, student, fighter, business owner, weight-loss guru, cheat-day hero, TV personality...basically, he's the perfect catch. Known for working alongside Oli Pettigrew on TV, and running his gym Ritual, he is also a mixed martial arts monster. He made his professional MMA debut against ONE FC fighter and top Malaysian welterweight Nik Harris, getting his hand raised after a grueling three-round affair. He has great wrestling, heavy hands, and you can be sure his team Fight G will be making sure he comes ready for war.
Will the "Minion" be able to impose his will once again? Or will "The Vanilla Gorilla" finish him off like a Nutella-spread sandwich with chocolate milk and Oreos on a glorious Saturday cheat-night? Find out LIVE at the KSL City & Hotel Resort, November 30th, at Ultimate Beatdown: Road To Glory

Oh, and he also just happens to be the Malaysian Invasion MMA Flyweight Champion, meaning he is a certified badass.

He dropped the jaws of everyone in attendance, and will be looking to drop the MIMMA flyweight champions jaw as well.

Mehrdad Malekizadeh vs Sabastion Cole
Boy oh boy, have we got a thriller for you! KSL Ultimate Beatdown brings you one hell of a match-up in an international bout... "The Conqueror" takes on the Iranian Muay Thai Monster.Sabastion "The Conqueror" Cole is a fan-favorite amongst Ultimate Beatdown fans, and is back in the cage again to put on a beating. Not even old enough to drink, this young beast-of-a-fighter has a wicked ground game and crafty stand-up skills. In his last fight, he demolished a national Judo competitor by working some straight punches, and wasted no time in using the cage to his advantage in getting his opponents back, and securing the rear naked choke. The crowd went wild, and his opponent hung his head in defeat. But will his next opponent let him off that easy?
Mehrdad Malekizadeh is an Iranian Muay Thai fighter, rumored to have nearly 100 fights under his belt. Vicious elbows, lightning-fast combos and an iron-will best describes this experienced striker. Word on the street is that he broke an astonishing 33 baseball bats with shin kicks one day out of anger... that's pretty badass (however, detractors say the bats were made in China...). He'll be looking to make a BIG statement in the Ultimate Beatdown cage, and test the chin of the young English mixed martial artist.
Will Sabastion Cole's mixed martial arts experience be enough to maul his opponent, or will Mehrdad Malekizadeh's Muay Thai skills prove to be too much for him? Find out LIVE at the KSL City & Hotel Resort on the 30th of November at Ultimate Beatdown 13: Road to Glory
KSL Ultimate Beatdown brings you a sweet, sweet match-up for our Sub-Zero main event -- Ian Lee vs Shane Suzuki.
Ian Lee is one of THE best BJJ competitors in the country. Training under the legendary BJJ whiz Professor Escobar from Leverage Combat Academy, Lee has shown himself to be a craftsman of the popular art of submissions. His opponent, however, is no stranger; Lee will be facing a familiar face, someone he has met on the mats over and over again.
Shane Suzuki is a top competitor in the martial art in the region, having competed at an international level. A BJJ prodigy, Suzuki will be looking to make a statement in the Ultimate Beatdown cage and bring home the FINAL BJJ bragging rights to his stable, Fight G.
Both men have competed against each other several times, and each time the contested bouts were so even, that they had to do the tango over and over again in what is quickly becoming one of the most high-profile BJJ rivalries in this region.
Will Ian Lee's BJJ wizardry show in this match-up, or will Shane Suzuki prove to be on another level in this submissions-only bout? Find out LIVE on the 30th of November at KSL City & Hotel Resort, at Ultimate Beatdown 13: Road to Glory
Garie Tang vs Prnav Mantri
Folks, KSl Ultimate Beatdown brings you a match-up so legendary, that your great grandchildren will still be talking about it (assuming the aliens haven't taken over and banned MMA... that would suck.)
Garie Tang is a hot tempered, aggressive flyweight fighting out of Impact MMA. He wasted no time in wrecking through his last opponent, finding an early submission in the first round. Lean and mean, this fighter is keen on walking through his upcoming opponent but alas! Can he do so? His opponent is no slice of pie...
Pranav Mantri is... well, he's scary. He is terrifying. He is what legends and folklore are made of, only he is real and ready to tear it up. A takedown artist, Pranav loves to slam his opponents to the ground hard, much like he does in training with the punching bags. A little bird told us the other day that the gym had to stop him from slamming training bags... 'cause he has ruined over FIFTY of them. We're telling you... he is a legend.
Will Garie's aggressiveness and ability to overpower his opponents work this time around? Or will Pranav live up to the legendary story,and break Garie like a one of the many punching bags? Find out LIVE at KSL City & Hotel Resort on the 30th of November, at Ultimate Beatdown 13: Road to Glory
Okay folks, KSL Ultimate Beatdown brings you another killer match-up, between Sanjivan and the man known only as "The DevilBald."
Sanjivan last fought at Ultimate Beatdown 12 and boy oh boy did he make a statement! A takedown artist, he got the durable Ejam White to the floor, and pulverized his way to a TKO victory. He loves to embrace the grind, and smash his opponents until they remember his name. But will he be able to do so against someone so evil, so sinister, that his name sounds like something out of an exorcism flick?
"The DevilBald" trains out of MuayFit where monsters are known to be manufactured, but this beast-of-a-man is a monster that knows no boundaries. He last fought at MFC and swarmed his opponent with all his might and secured a vicious, breathtaking victory (almost literally). This man is so vicious, so evil, so terrifying, that it was so difficult to find him an opponent but alas! Sanjivan has stepped up and is willing to tame the beast... or at least try to.
Catch Sanjivan vs "The DevilBald" LIVE on November 30th at the KSL City & Hotel Resort @ Ultimate Beatdown 13: Road To Glory
KSL Ultimate Beatdown brings you what MMA was originally all about -- different martial artists fighting their art against another for martial arts supremacy; we bring you Silat vs Karate.
Shaharin, or "The Beast", is just that -- a beast. Cliche? Please -- implementing Silat into MMA was almost unheard of until this man came around town and started raising hell. Training at Grasio MMA, lead by former Silat World Champion Sheik Alau'ddin, "The Beast" is a silent assassin of sort, being able to sneak up from behind and choke you out before you even know what's going on. But can he prove Silat to be effective not only in pro MMA, but against the feared art of Karate?
Rayner "King Karabau" is an absolute legend in the mixed martial arts scene -- donning a black belt in Karate, he is known to couple it with aggressiveness and high levels of insanity. A former SEA Games medalist (he got bored of the rules and wanted to get into MMA, where the real action lies), his nickname "King Kerabau" plays a significant role in his style -- if you mess with the bull, you get the horns!
Will Silat in pro MMA prove to be effective, or will Karate once again prove its effectiveness in the glorious cage of mixed martial arts? Find out LIVE on November 30th @ KSL City & Hotel Resort at Ultimate Beatdown 13: Road to Glory!
KSL Ultimate Beatdown brings you the "Bullkiller" vs "Spidey" match-up in the opening rounds of the Road To Glory Flyweight Tournament.
Zakhir "The Bullkiller" is definitely no stranger to the fight game, having stepped in the cage against ONE FC fighter/Ultimate Beatdown CEO Melvin Yeoh, and against MIMMA champion Kenny Yap. His biggest win came against ONE FC fighter Mohd Fouzein back at F3, and recently defeated Haziq Sulaiman via vicious TKO at Ultimate Beatdown 12. This self-proclaimed Bullkiller is a monster, but will he be able to overcome the will of "Spidey"?
Mohd Firdaus, aka "Spidey", is known for being "tough and rough", hailing from Kuantan where Muay Thai beasts are born and bred. He trains his shins by kicking coconut trees, and there are rumors going around that 100% of the time, he beats those trees by knockout... we can't make this stuff up, people.
Catch "The Bullkiller" vs "The Spidey" LIVE on November 30th @ the KSL City & Hotel Resort, at Ultimate Beatdown 13: Road To Glory
