Tapout Episode 2: Antonio Banuelos
Banuelos, roommate and training partner of Chuck Liddell, is training for WEC 26. He’s facing Charlie Valencia to determine the number-one contender for the WEC Bantamweight title. Valencia catches Banuelos with an uppercut three minutes into the first round, knocking him out.
The crew meets Scott “Einstein” Epstein in Los Angeles through his coach, Eddie Bravo. They agree to sponsor him and immediately put him in a photo shoot for some new TapouT gear. Epstein is set to face Sergio Quinones at Xcess Fighting’s inaugural Havoc in Hollywood event and on fight day the crew is worried that Epstein is too casual. Quinones gets the better of Epstein through much of the first two rounds but Epstein is able to use his jiu jitsu skills to choke him out in round two.
