GUEST BLOG: Jenks Breaks Down The LOSER LEAVES TOWN Main Event Between MikeyBets & Zach Abel This Friday Night
*written by guest blogger and (1-0 vs Abels champion Jenks)
#RNR25 undoubtedly offers the highest stakes brawl in the history of RNR... MikeyBets vs. Zach Abel: Loser Leaves Town.
MikeyBets job is on the line, as is Zach Abel’s future with Rough N Rowdy. Nothing is more dramatic than a loser leaves town fight.
Abel is a RNR legend. He has had some of the most iconic RNR moments, like when he flipped over the top rope with an opponent WWE style (during a boxing match). He has proven he can take punches and keep coming forward, which is why he regularly lands fight of the night (on his back). H
e is the better fighter of the two Abels and will not be an easy out. You basically have to put him to sleep to end the fight. RNR is a special showcase for Abel, a spotlight and source of income that he has become addicted to. If he loses, it will be devastating.
MikeyBets has been the man behind the man (Frank Fleming) for years. We are partners within Fleming Enterprises and I have gotten to know him like family over the last year plus.
While he is one of the goofiest and nicest guys you’ll ever meet, there is certainly another side to the coin. MikeyBets has a switch like when Stallone turned his hat backward in Over the Top (great film).

I have seen MikeyBets lose his temper a few times and it is ALWAYS scary. For example, I beat him one time in a pickup basketball game (he's beaten me too) and after about 10 minutes of talking shit he was full blown ready to fight me. I didn’t want that smoke and dialed it down. And we all saw what he did to that dude in the parking lot.
MikeyBets wanted to work at Barstool full-time for years before getting this opportunity. Now, with a pregnant wife in the crowd, he will enter the arena with everything to lose.
Yet he remains unflappable in his confidence. He knows this is his best way to make a mark at Barstool, by risking it all for the entertainment of Stoolies. He knows he has to win.
It takes guts to get in the ring for the first time. It takes balls of steel to do it for the first time with your dream job on the line.
Abel advantages:
- Experience in the ring
- Used to taking haymakers
- Strong jaw
MikeyBets advantages:
- Psychotic temper
- Brute force
- Frank in his corner

Both camps have taken the fight seriously in preparation and anything is possible. With that said, MikeyBets knows that this is his moment to step up.
His moment to peacock his personality.
His moment to retire Abel once and for all.
His moment to make Hawaiin shirts cool again.
His moment to deliver an unforgettable night to the Stoolies he loves.
This isn’t just about a rivalry or completing a wild storyline. There are real life consequences at stake and the outcome will be handled via brawl. Can't wait to see my guy dominate this Friday night on BuyRNR.com
PS: Fight Night is Friday but don’t miss the weigh in Thursday at 7 pm ET either. Things will get testy and we also have Frank doing his 10th weigh in since we started Frank Walks…
