SP SENDS 2 ACROSS THE POND
February 23rd, 2010 | Published in EVENTS
The fight scene in the United Kingdom is adding a new player to the mix. Trojan MMA is looking to expand where Cage Rage and other promotions left off with a Feb. 27 event in Exeter at the West Point Arena. Trojan Warfare will feature several top fighters including a main event with former TapouT reality show star Pat Curran taking on former Cage Rage champion Robbie Olivier in a featherweight contest.
Pat, cousin of former WEC and Strikeforce challenger Jeff Curran, will return to action looking to erase the outcome of his last fight, a loss to Travis Perzynski in December. A veteran of several promotions, Pat is looking to get a taste of redemption and build back into top contention in his weight class.
Olivier is a veteran of several promotions, but most prominently as the champion for the now defunct Cage Rage organization. He has faced stiff competition in his career including fights against Brad Pickett, Leigh Remedios, and Masakazu Imanari.
Also on the card will be former UFC competitor Neil Wain, as he returns home to England to face M-1 challenger Lloyd Marshbanks. John Doyle from EliteXC and M-1 challenges Chris Rice, as well.
UWC veteran Dwayne Shelton takes on former Cage Rage fighter Paul Reed, while Karlos Vemola squares off against Martin “Ox” Thompson.
Several more fights will be featured on the card coming up in February and more information can be found at TrojanMMA.com
