*Joseph Williams is sitting in a chair with a microphone in hand, his brother Tyler is sitting next to him.* *The camera shift to focus on only Joseph with Tyler just out of view.*Joseph Williams: Today has been a day of big news. The Chaos Crew, my old gym filled with friends, and Gallant Pit Fighting have decided to have co ownership over their three gyms. *Joseph breathes out a long drawn out sigh*Joseph Williams: I have always been about the fighters. I respect everyone that steps in that cage, and I always will. I have helped turn some young fighters into great champions and great contenders. Many of the fighters that have been in my gym have far surpassed what I am as a fighter. I am proud of that because these men are like brothers to me and it means the world to me if they are successful. *Joseph pauses for a second to collect his thoughts*Joseph Williams: With that said. I would like to announce that my brother Tyler and I have decided to cut ties with the Chaos Crew and are no longer associated with them. Their gym has outgrown itself, the sport, and the league. No one is above the sport, or the league...no one. *Joseph hangs his head so that his chin is almost touching his chest*Joseph Williams: All this merger shows me is selfishness in Mitch, and in the men at Gallants. They aren't about the fighters anymore, they are about themselves. I told myself that I would never associate myself with people that have no plans to help others in their careers. *Joseph sighs again*Joseph Williams: I always promised myself that I would always be about the fighters and I'm sticking to that promise. As soon as I heard of the merger I entered a long thought process about this decision. I talked it over with my brother and he also felt it was the right thing to do. *Joseph raises his head up, his eyes slightly red from tears*Joseph Williams: To Mitch, beloved friend and brother. You will remain so, but the ties are cut. But I and my gym are no longer going to associated with you, or your gyms. Best of luck to you in the future. Joseph Williams: To my fighters. There is nothing any of you can say to make me change my mind. If you disagree with me, you can do what you wish. I will never hold you back if you this it's the right choice. If you agree, then please stick around and support my decision. Any other problems will be discussed in private.

Mitch Armours Responce:
you were an CC alumn and still are and i dont remember tyler williams being in CC......and im sad to hear it but Mitch is doing to to help ALL his fighters, the better the fighters you train with and the more different styles represented to train with,the better for ALL FIGHTERS, how you could say I am selfish for possibly merging with gallants is bologna!
The Chaos Crew is full of Elite world class fighters and all the young guys we get we get in hopes to make their dreams come true and to help them become THE ABSOLUTE BEST FIGHTER THAT THEY CAN BECOME AND I Spend all my time on every single chaos crew fighter to make sure that happens, how you can call me selfish and above the sport? Thats above me, NOBODY IS ABOVE THE SPORT LIKE You said, and I nor the chaos crew inc. are trying to be that, we are simply expanding and ofcourse we WILL NOT expand any more that will be as big as we get if the merger goes through. I vow to that.

[glow=red,2,300]*Dan Gallant interupts the interview*[/glow]
Dan Gallant: Im sorry to see you cut off all ties with poeple you have grown with over the years. I am sorry that you think WE think we are above the sport. Your clouded visions of grandeur are exactly that Visions. It seems that everyone outside of this new team has selective hearing. CC Elite is for fighters to come train. We are all about the fighters... Not above the fighters.. We are fighters wanting to help anyone become an elite power in the MMA. To say we are above everything is not only arrogant and ignorant.. but down right childish. Would you all like me to come down to your levels and call you a poopy head? You all have a gym for 1 reason .. to be all that you can be in the cage or ring...
Our dream is the exact same. We are cutting the roster down to a hand full and a select few. People will come and people will go. Thats how the world works. We believe this merger has the potential to breed some amazing fighters. With the knowledge of technics of my Partner Mitch, and my brutal strength and Endurance knowledge.. we are going to breed the next generations of fighters. If you are not down with the CC Elite.. thats your problem... and thats just another loss added on to your record.
You may continue your blubbering fest.
* hands the microphone back to who ever was talking * Joseph was it?...

Ryan Henderson: Man I totally agree with you separating your ties from Chaos Crew I don't really know what to say about this merger however my bro Les DOES have something to say.
Les Henderson: Look I never particularily liked Mitch and I always thought that eventually somewhere down the line we would fight each other. However both of us are battle worn he is retired and I am getting near the end of my career. Mitch you've done the worst possible thing and thats make threatening moves into my territory my hometown Toronto Ontario where I train my own fighters. Now you've got Gallant and his clone troopers coming in to take over. Competition is good...but Toronto aint big enough for the both of us Mitch somebody has got to go and seeing that I was born and raised here and have had my camp first well it should be you end of story.

Joseph Williams: Gallant, if your about the fighters, then why are you going to just cut fighters that aren't doing great? Why don't you instead try to help them live up to their potential and become better than they currently are? You don't just give up on fighters if you are about the fighters.
Joseph Williams: Also, interrupting my interview just shows how immature you are. It also shows that you think you are more important than others. I won't let it make a stir in me or my gym. I'm above the bickering that you are trying to lure me into. Have a nice day, and enjoy your new gym.

BJ Dwinell who is standing behind the two Williams brothers asks the for mics.
:: BJ " Birdman " Dwinell :: I have a IDEAR!!! Since there are three camps in one. Then why dont there be one camp full of youngsters and those who are struggling? And add a couple top trainers and fighters to that camp to help the youngsters and turn the ones strugglings around. How bout that!

Mark Martin: I agree with the Williams and BJ. Instead of cutting ppl who arent up to ur standards, try helping them like a gym is supposed to do.

Dan Gallant: I am not against that idea and it has been brought up in private negotiations. Unfortunatly we have people out side the camps crying about how we have too many fighters blah blah blah. So as much as i would love to keep every fighter, we simply cannot and are not allowed. We are about the fighters, and no one can say otherwise. And, by ' Cutting the fat ', this will allow us to remove anyone who just isnt wanting to improve or we feel are taking advantage of our facilities maybe its time they get the reality check and swift kick in the arse they need.
Also, for the record ... The camp will remain based out of Toronto near the boarder of Scarborough ( Lawrence and Victoria Park area ). With a population in Toronto reaching near 5 Million now... I am sure we can fit both gyms. I was also born and raised in Toronto Canada and i will not move for anyone.
To call me immature for interupting your interview that had 5 actual viewers only shows your childishness. To be fair it looked like your interview was closing, and i felt i needed to defend myself from some of the ignorant people surrounding this issue without actually havign a clue whats going on. So, I filled people in.
Bottom Line is people are scared now that there is a powerhouse in the IMMAF. And thats what we wanted. You can tell me or Mitch otherwise... but in the end when you speak up on " this is too big and unfair , your nto about the fighters blah blah blah " you show nothing but fear. Im not saying fear me bitches and roll over. What we are accomplishing here is another level of competition.. The World is about evolution. Can you evolve to take on The CC Elite?
We will see.

Joseph Williams: If I thought you guys were becoming too powerful wouldn't I just cower and stay at your side instead of going against the grain and cutting ties?

Mitch Armour: Les....I can still fight super fights...AND THE ONE FIGHT I WANT MORE THEN ANYTHING IN THIS WORLD BEFORE YOU RETIRE FOR GOOD ,or if you do hopefully youll do superfights everynow and then like i will...Is you vs me because we are the only two to hold titles in two different weight class and us fighting would show wich is the best of the two title in different divisions winners! No personal vendetta or anything, it would be a world class fight and after i fight richardson id LOVE and be honored,regardless of what you think of me ,les, to fight me for a super fight, itll sell out REAL QUICK and be one of the biggest showdowns in IMMAF history...what do you say les?

Dan Gallant: I dont know, would you? Cutting off ties with a great friend to you, Mitch, its a bit lame in my opinion. If i heard you right you even called him brother?
The fact of the matter is .. The CC Elite is here and here to stay. There really isnt much more that need to be mentioned other then that. If you need a lesson in the cage let me know. There is always room for improve ment in your game Joseph. * laughs and heads out * Thanks for the time boys.

Mitch Armour: id gladly make a division for struggling fighters to help them, but then we would get everyone saying WE ARE EXPANDING EVEN MORE! I said we were gonna make cuts only to let you guys see our roster WILL NOT get out of hand but I DO LOVE the idea of having a division for the struggling fighters ,that are already in CC and ones that arent that wanna join...Im totally down for that ,i just dont wanna hear "Oh they just keep getting bigger and bigger" if we do that!!!

Mitch Armour: If IMMAF and the fighters will get off our asses and stop putting us down for having too many fighters...I WILL ABSOLUTLY LOVE TO MAKE A DIVISION FOR STRUGGLING FIGHTERS AND GET THEM BACK ON THE RIGHT TRACK!!! We have amazing trainers that can turn around virtually ANY FIGHTER thats in a slump. So if you guys will just stop saying we are trying to make a damn city, and let us help our fighters and create one more division for strugglign fighters to get them abck on the right path...ID LOVE for that to happen, I feel like whatever CC does we are damned if we do and damned if we dont because we are the best.
