Finally a place to call home…Wherever you are.

Betelnut Radio is where you’ll find music from the islands, specifically Guam and the Northen Marianas.

Betelnut radio features Chamorro Tunes mixed with music from all over the Paciific…
From Fiji to Hawaii… we have it all.
Betelnut Radio is also dashed with a healthy amount of Reggae too.

I got a call from my Nao and my sister…. “Frankie Boy!!!! Theres a Chamorro Music App for the iPhone! Download it now!” hahah I was super stoked. Immediately went to the site, followed the directions, and now I’m listening to reggae and chamorro livestream music.

A couple of weeks ago I posted on my Facebook if anyone knew a chamorro livestream website to listen to local chamorro music from Saipan, Guam, or whatever. Theres this app right now ‘i heart radio’ but its a hawaiian radio station.

For all you Chamorros away from home and need some island jams check out the website above. Next thing you know you’ll be doing the Chacha! hahah.

Big thanks to my Nao Frank Oliver and cousin Daisy Camacho Oliver for spreading the Chamorro Love on the World Wide Web!

Enjoy the Music… Spread the Word!

Congratulations Keli “Rukiz” Manglona! 1st Title Defense Win via Rear Naked Choke!

Frank Camacho — Mon, 30 Aug 2010 02:15:40 +0000

Keli Manglona 185lb Middleweight Champion

Congrats Kel! Keep up the good work man…

Heres the article from the Saipan Tribune. by Walter J. Sutherland.

Keli “Rukiz” Manglona defended his Gorilla Warfare Mixed Martial Arts middleweight title after tapping out Guam’s Cody Cruz from Guahan Top Team with a rear-naked choke at the 1:48 mark in the first round in GWMMA Armageddon’s main event bout last Saturday at the Royal Taga Hall of the Saipan World Resort.

Manglona initially elected to stand and bang with Cruz, but the latter caught the champion with a nice hook to the jaw, dropping the home bet to the canvas.

However, the decorated grappler immediately regained his composure and then utilized his superior wrestling skills to secure a dominant ground position against Cruz. Once on top, Manglona dealt Cruz with some big ground and pound blows before taking his opponent’s back and choking him out shortly after.

The win gave Manglona a flawless MMA record of 7-0, while Cruz had to eat his first loss out of four fights.

Cruz accepted the challenge of battling Manglona on a short notice and in front of the home crowd, which screamed for the latter from the second the former came out of the backroom.

Manglona, after his title defense, admitted his first fight plan was to knock his foe out.

“I admit I was looking for a quick knockout win similar to what happened in Vegas last month, but still I am very pleased with the way things worked out. I gave Cruz credit because he did catch me with a good one, but I didn’t panic.I just kept my composure and took what he gave me from then on,” Manglona said.

In other results, light heavyweight Swain “The Pain” Cangco from Saipan’s Predator Combat Team defeated Trench Tech’s Sully Stone by TKO at 4:27 into the first round.

Coming into the fight, Cangco knew that Stone likes to throw a lot of kicks, so he avoided them and took this fight to the mat. Stone fought on his back for virtually the whole fight, but was pummeled in the head multiple times by Cangco’s ground and pound strikes. After the referee called it off, Stone was still a little dizzy and stumbled a bit when he went over to shake Cangco’s hand. Cangco improved to a 4-1 record, while Stone suffered his first loss out of three fights.

The last fight on the semi-main card had Trench Tech’s “Bad” Brad Palacios defeating Derrick “Pinchy” Rangamar from Choke Chain and Marianas Elite by TKO due to strikes at 4:10 into the first round.

Palacios was in top form again and outwrestled his opponent before dishing out a vicious ground and pound flurries. Palacios improved his MMA record to 8-3, while Ranagmar dropped to 3-9. Hopefully, Palacios is hoping that his next opponent will have an MMA record similar to his own as his last two opponents both had losing skids.

Independent Saipan fighter, Robert “Pitbull” Palacios, improved his record to 3-5 after tapping out Niel “Lion-Heart” Taisacan with a rear-naked choke at 1:57 into the first round. Notably, even though Taisaican’s record fell to 1-4, he gave up over 14 pounds to his opponent in this match-up.

In another light heavyweight bout, Saipan’s Martin “Ning” Cepeda from PCT also scored a TKO win over Saipan’s Lionel “Da Hellion” Borja from Choke Chain and Marianas Elite.

After the first round bell, the favored Borja could not get up during the break and remained laid out in the middle of the ring until the referee called it off. The win evened out Cepeda’s record to 1-1, while Borja’s record fell to 3-2.

The first bout on the semi-main card was a light heavyweight match and it went to Saipan’s Edwin “Stix” Castro from the PCT after he tapped out independent Saipan fighter Jack “The Ripper” Crisostimo with a Guillotine choke at 2:18 into the first round.

Castro was being dominated for the majority of the contest when he surprisingly put up the deep submission hold to Crisostimo. The impressive win improved Castro’s record to 2-0, while Crisostimo fell to 2-4.

The 130-lb independent bantamweight fighter Peter Sakisat from Tinian won the last preliminary bout over Saipan’s Frank Demapan out of PCT by tapout via a rear-naked choke at 2:37 into the first round. Sakisat improved to a 2-0 record while Demapan fell to 1-2 mark.

In a featherweight bout, Saipan’s Derrick “The Gladiator” Chen soundly defeated independent Tinian fighter, Manny “The Doctor” Cepeda by TKO at 1:41 into the first round due to strikes. Chen finally put himself in the winner’s column after two losses, while Cepeda’s record evened out to 1-1.

The first fight of the night was a 155-lb lightweight pairing where Saipan’s Sonny Pua from Team Zalaka won his debut against another first-timer, Scott Santos of Tinian. Pua prevailed by tap out at 1:15 into the second round with a Guillotine choke.

Notably, “Kill” Bill Saures and Giovanni “Palaxi” Sablan did not fight as scheduled because their respective opponents did not appear on fight night.

BJ “The Prodigy” Penn vs. Frankie “The Answer” Edgar 2 at UFC 118

Frank Camacho — Sat, 28 Aug 2010 20:19:27 +0000

UFC 118

UFC 118 will be in the history books! I cant wait for the rematch of BJ and Frankie in Boston… Im for BJ all the way. I just hope he is in shape for this fight… BJ is super dangerous after taking loses! Frankie has his hands full on this fight against The Prodigy.

GO BJ!

The Randy Couture vs. James Tony fight will be historical. Mixed Martial Arts has never had someone like James Toney compete. No one with that ‘high level’ boxing fight in MMA. You hear a lot of boxers talk about mixed martial arts and how our striking is horrible… But you gotta remember Mixed Martial Arts is a whole different thing from boxing. Boxing is just a little aspect to being a mixed martial artist.

I cant wait to see this fight! Im a big James Toney Fan! He is a beast! One of the best to ever live and fight in the boxing ring.
Im a huge Randy fan as well… He has done great things for the sport and is always classy!

Im for Randy on this! 1st round stoppage! hahah OHH YAHHH!

Heres the trailer for the upcoming fight!

borrowed frm facebook notes…

Thailand

Today at 5:51pm

“Thailand, where training is a lifestyle. A lifestyle in which your only stress is your inner struggle to overcome personal demons like self doubt and fear. A place where you can overcome those demons and elevate to another level. In Thailand I wake up in the morning eager to face today’s challenges. I understand that the punishment I face everyday will mold me into the person that I want to be.

I understand why so many people come to the land of smiles and never leave. It was very difficult for me to get on the plane today. Hard for me to leave my training partners and my amazing trainer. Difficult to leave a lifestyle and a place of constant improvement. I am taking so much back with me. I am hugrier than ever and looking forward to my next challenge.

I want to thank everyone that was part of another great training experience. First, Tiger Muay Thai, Big Mac and Ray Elbe. Thank you so much for your hospitality. Thank you for helping me live my dream and for giving me new opportunities. Ray, thank you for getting me back on track and helping me live up to my potential. Kru Yod, thank you for an education in Muay Thai. I have so much more to learn and I look forward to many more training sessions. Claire, thank you for showing me what hard work and hunger is. I am truely a fan. Robin, thanks for everything bro. It is truely amazing to have a like minded cat to discuss life with when you are far away from home. And I can’t forget my little leprechaun Damo. Your tenacity and desire to learn motivated me to work my hardest everyday. You are going to do big things bro.

Vargas… Chok dee (good luck) in the queens cup. Joe Ray, introduce Chad Reiner to the “one hitter quitter”.

It is great to be a part if the Tiger Muay Thai family and I look forward to taking Tiger Muay Thai USA to a……

WHOLE NUTHA LEVEL!!!”
