FIGHT NIGHT!

We followed Ray Shawdee in his 3rd official fight with I.C.E Fighter Organization on Friday night. The fight took place at the Crowne Plaza Grand Ballroom in Worcester, MA. The event was wild peanuts! Place was packed and the testosterone was thick, but that didn't distract our golden boy Ray Shawdee from tapping his opponent, John Ortalani,out in the first minute in the first round! Congrats to D.O.A.'s Ray Shawdee and thank you to everyone at the event who showed loved to the fam!

Defam welcomes 'Relentless' Ray Shawdee to the Fam.

Defam is now sponsoring underdog MMA fighter 'Relentless' Ray Shawdee aka The Professor. We will be at his next event this Friday at the Crowne Plaza in Worcester, MA to what maybe his 4th win....Currently 3-0.

Don't get it twisted, Defam is not moving in the direction of developing MMA clothing, but we are about the rise of black sheep and outcasts. D.O.A. and Ray Shawdee are on the up and up and their focus is to hit the top without the glitz and image.

Gawad Kalinga

Here at Defam we try to turn negatives into positives. No matter what the situation we set things aside for the more important things.

We belong to a few important organizations, but the most valuable to me, is the Gawad Kalinga. It's a movement that is raising awareness here in the states to contribute into re-building poverty ridden villages in the Philippines. Not only is it generating the funds to do so, but it also donates to establish and re-build lives in other third world countries.

We held a walk last year in Boston, Mass to make the cause known, here is the video that I had a helping hand in developing. Hope you have the time to take a minute and watch. Or 4 minutes.

Bless you all.
