WEEDMAN IN BELLATOR SEASON FINALE
June 23rd, 2010 | Published in FIGHTER NEWS
Thursday marks the end of the second season of Bellator Fighting Championships. 2 of SuckerPunch’s rising stars stepped in and delivered big for the promotion starting with Pat Curran, who by winning the lightweight tournament became arguably the biggest Cinderella story in MMA for 2010. Brent Weedman however has been a little more under the radar but should not go unnoticed. Brent is 15-5-0 a prospect with KO power in his hands and feet, powerful wrestling and slick BJJ. With his first win in the Bellator promotion over Rudy Bears (11-5-0), Brent proved himself a candidate for the next welterweight tourney. A win in the season finale would all but secure that spot. “It’s not a matter of if he wins, it’s a matter of when he wins”, said head coach Eric Haycraft. Brent will face John Troyer (10-4-0) in what is expected to be a hometown war between 2 of Louisville’s best welterweights.
