Dave O’Donnell said: “The fight card that is lined up at the moment is an International dream. We’ve got guys from Brazil, Poland, Algeria, Greece, France, Romania, Lithuania and Africa and it really is a Showdown. If this was the Wild West, people would be clearing the streets. But it’s not – it’s a spectacle for all to see and it’s going to be another sell out for the Troxy.”

“The long awaited re-match between multi-millionaire Kiane Sabet and ‘Big’ Ben Smith has already set the forums alight – they are making their statements heard around the streets and in their promos on YouTube – neither man will want to lose face. On the other side of the coin, the LW Title is up for grabs. Robbie Olivier is no stranger to titles – he held the Cage Rage belt for many years, but will Michael Pastou be too strong for him as he cuts down from 84 kilos? Everyone is talking about Pastou’s immense strength – that’s why he’s called ‘the hulk.’ The Welterweight title bout featuring Henrique Santana from Brazil is one to watch, will Santana’s slick ground game be too much for John Maguire – the current OMMAC champion? Only time will tell with these two gun slingers.”

UCMMA 15 also sees the MMA debut of action journalist Mark ‘Wartime’ Carling, who is facing up to Jason Barrett after 12 weeks of intensive training. Cornered by boxing champ Mark Prince, Nick Chapman and Dale Hatt, Carling’s gruelling journey into the cage has been filmed by BlockHouse Films for an upcoming TV series. Confident Barrett (3 – 6- 0) is coming out of retirement to put an end to Carling’s MMA ambitions – who’s going to win the crowd over and will this turn out to be the upset of the night?
