All the fights were really good except the last two. It was very obvious that that ref was tired of being there and wanted to go home. He stopped the last two fights way too soon (for absolutly no reason). In the second to last fight the fighter got body slammed and as he was getting up the ref called the fight. He was only on the ground for three seconds. The last fight was similar. I wont come to this event anymore unless I find out the refs will make better judgment calls.

It was a low budget put together, was expecting a little more for the price of the tickets. The over all matches were good.

I went to their last show at Janus Live in St. Petersburg. The cage was setup outdoors beneath the stage and the entire place was packed. The fights were simply amazing, the drinks were good and you felt really close to the action. I will definitely go when they're in town again!!!

The last two fights were amazing! There was a lot of blood and a lot of moves! I wasn't too happy on the seats that I got. Definitely not worth the money I spent.

It seemed like a community event, people you knew were there. It was a small enough event that the seating was pretty good from wherever you sat. Sound and view were very good. Could see most all of the fighting and there were TV monitors so you could see the hard to view areas like when the pole or referee were in the way. Drinks were too pricey and not enough event item vendors. All in all I'd go again.

The quality of fighter was excellent and the competition of the fights were great. Only one fight went to the judges.
However the organizers need some better management. It was run like a bunch of enthusiast high school boys that just want to hang out with the cool people. It was definately not run like a business organization.
The most hilarious part was this big goofy guy that was the post fight interviewer. He was wearing this suit that was way to small and thought he was Joe Rogan doing the interviews. Everyone was laughing so hard at him it made up for the hour delay at the start and the long delays between fights

The show started at 8:00pm, an hour late. It was probably good for alcohol sales though but I don't drink.
Music was turned up to the point of distortion for the 1.5 hours before the fights finally stated.
I brought my brother and my 10 year old nephew and we sat 2nd row ringside.
We had to ask (actually shout) 4 or 5 times because people that were part of the production would stop and stand in your way to the point that you had to watch the big screen on the other side of the arena.
AOF 11 started about an hour late too.
I'm not to sure I'll go to AOF13.
Maybe if I wear ear plugs and show up an hour late I'll try it one more time.

Great crowd, got some chants going...J- Killa looked like a juggernaut...Geanne transitioned from one submission to another, very cool...smokin hot ringgirls....hot babes galore in the crowd....good security...they need a new PA system with clarion audio and pamphlets with the fighters names, schools, weights, styles, and hometown.etc. overall a very action-packed night with tight strikes and subs!!!!

This show was an OBVIOUS "want to be" UFC calliber type fight, however it was very very poorly put together.
The show started over an hour of the stated start time.....there was no instant replay of tap outs or knock outs....the refs did not break up the fighters as quickly as he should have.....the announcer was wearing a suit...and converse....after each fight was over the fight's promoter would ask the winner of the fight a number of dumb questions catered more towards smack talk type answers of WWE or RAW......
Just all around not professionally handled. I may try another show when it gets up to around "The Art of Fighting 300" when these guys get more practice in actually running a well put together show.

There was definitely no need to beat the crowd and you could walk right in without having to wait in line, so that's a plus. The doors were schedule to open @ 6:00 pm and the event set to start at 7:00 pm. They did indeed open at 6, but absolutely nothing happened until 7:45 when the main card line up was announced. After the undercards finally began a little after 8:00 pm.
There is no preshow entertaiment, no meet and greet with the fighters, and only over priced concessions available to consume. So, make sure to have a friend along to pass the time with if you arrive early.
Because only a small section of the arena was sold it meant the 2/3 of the arena was empty and the sound engineers did not take this into account when setting up the microphones. Due to the echoing off of all that open concrete the ring announcer and post fight interviews were utterly meaningless. You simply could not decipher what was being said.
The fights were entertaining for the most part--two of the eight really stood out as excellent fights. One, the fourth and last fight of the undercard was easily the fight of the night and the 1/3 of the arena was electric with excitement. The second fight, the headliner, was also very enjoyable. Unfortunately the three fights between the fight of the night and the headliner left a lot to be desired.
If there was some sort of entertainment available for the 2+ hours prior to the show starting, or if it had started as advertised, I would have rated it higher, perhaps three stars. Couple that with some better sound boarding so we could understand what was being said and who was fighting and I would have definitely rated this 4 stars. But, it is what it was.

This event was horrible. I was supposed to sit in Club Seats section 114, row b, seats 17 & 18. They closed the club section down and issued us different seating that was not comparable at all. Section 102, row S, seats 3 & 4 (two seats away from the very end curtain). I may as well have been in the back room. The event was supposed to start at 7 but it didn't start until 8 and should have ended at 10 but didn't end until 11. They were not organized at all. I can not believe I paid money for this...especially after hearing that they gave away 700 free tickets. I was very, very disappointed.

I went to Art of Fighting 10 at Germain Arena and this was by far the BEST live show I have ever been to!!! I paid $60 to sit on the floor and was right up in the action, the fights were all amazing and I was blown away at how much talent Art of Fighting has on its fight card. My only complaint was that the arena was cold, but hey its a hockey rink. All in all this was an unforgettable experience, so much so I felt the need to write about it, thanks AOF and I will see you at the next one!!!
