Back to the Roots.

It has been discovered that between the years of 2000 and 2001, Nicholas Black and several others both organized and officiated over several bare-knuckle, pit-fighting events throughout the united states. The events matched opponents together based on their weight and let them fight for 10 minutes without pause. The winners were determined by either knock-out or submission. There were no decisions. Mr. Black and his associates would routinely allow personal grudge matches to be settled behind closed doors at a facility that they all trained at during the week. The pit fights went on for several years until state regulators began to crack down and file injunctions against them, bringing a halt to the matches. the Attorney's General and several congressmen stepped in to insure that such "underground fighting" would be discontinued.

Living in the night

In the mid '90s, Nicholas Black worked as a Doorman and bouncer at several nightclubs including: The Mirage, Liquid, The Gold Bar, INOX, Privilege, Soul City, Play 2, Es Paradis. He also participated in throwing several private parties around the world. Mr. Black claims to have never smoked, done any drugs, or used alcohol. so this choice of employment is a rather puzzling part of this mystery. His former associates claim him to be strict and uncompromising when he's in charge of the door at a club, but add, "...but he makes sure we all make a lot of money and nobody goes to jail." When not working the front of the clubs, Mr. black would assist the floor men with any "Troubling Patrons" that needed removing from the facility. Mr. Black was, "...quick to spin a guy around and choke him out!" The last club he worked at was Privilege, in Spain. It holds the legitimate title of being the largest club on earth.

Did Mr. Black Serve in a Clandestin Mercenary Group?

A group of five former Legionaries formed a security consulting firm in 2001. That group specialized in Discretionary Surveillance Operations. It is later learned through photographs of the unit--which intelligence agencies claimed to be a group of mercenaries--that one of their members is Nicholas Black.

All the members of the unit served in the French foreign Legion during the same, or overlapping, years. All of them have been spotted in Western Europe, and Northern Africa between 2001 and 2005.

The unit--referred to as '5 COMMANDO'--fell off of the grid suddenly in 2003. It is not known for how long, or to what extent, Nicholas Black worked with this unit. He has close associations with members of the private firm BLACKWATER, and various other Private Military Companies. At this time there are no pictures of all five members of 5 COMMANDO, however there are various photographs of various members during some kind of exercise off the coast of Mainland Spain.

We are trying to obtain copies of these photographs for later posting.
