Steel and shield bout: LaFond vs Bracken (shorts)
Like a bad episode of Myth Busters, Cory Bracken mangles his opponent's shiny round shield for nearly 3 minutes. James manages to stay alive the whole time, capturing a skull-crushing victory in the last exchange of the bout.

SuperJim wanted it, so he gets it: knife vs stick. Keep in mind, the stick-bearer can realistically only win by KO'ing his opponent with a strike to the head, or destroying/disarming the weapon hand. Not an easy feat, especially if the knifer wants blood and rushes.
