2011 World Scouting Report Update: May Recap by smoogy The latter half of May has been positively filthy with Scouting Report action, but the slow trickle of results coming in from the more obscure promotions has made the task of compiling an accurate, timely weekend recap difficult lately. In lieu of that feature's absence over the past two weeks, here is a jumbo-sized recap covering fourteen fights over the last three weeks of the month. A Special Achievement Award is in order for Konstantin Gluhov, who captured his second consecutive Warrior's Honor one-night-tournament title. Gluhov has won a staggering five straight tournaments in the last nine months: the two from Warrior's Honor (Ukraine), the Oleg Taktarov Cup (Russia), the UCFC 20,000 Euro, 16-Man Tournament (Austria), and the Pancrase FC Cup (France).
