Kelly’s House of Harley-Davidson Presents WCF 9 !Huge punchers and exciting 125 pounders added to WCF 9



Don’t blink in this one. Two of the areas lightest and most talented fighters have been added to WCF 9. USMMA’s Matt Martin is set to take on Bombsquad’s Peter Cole at 125 pounds. Matt had a recent win for WCF over Nik Patnaude, in a fight in which he used his wrestling and Brazilian Jui-Jitsu to out work Patnaude and win a unanimous decision. He’s currently ranked among the top 5 fighters in New England under 135 pounds. His opponent, Peter Cole is a fireball and swings for the fences from the opening bell, and his fights are always exciting.

Two huge punchers have been added to the card as well. Former pro boxers Carlos Lovato and Guillermo “William the Conquerer” Echuaca are set to face off at 205 pounds. Both guys have BIG KO power in their hands, and both are looking to end this fight by knock out.

BJJ ace Dan Simmler has also been added to WCF 9, and he is set to take on veteran fighter Robby Roberts. Robby will have a big reach advantage and will look to keep Simmler on the end of his punches and Simmler will look to close the distance and finish the fight with one of his signature submissions.

New fights are being released weekly, and this event keeps getting better and better. Get your tickets Now! The full fight card is expected to be released in the next week, and a few more BIG fights are expected to be announced.

Mixed martial arts regulation is finally coming to Massachusetts.

The move opens the door for the UFC to host a long-anticipated event in Boston.

Massachusetts, for example, may allow individual locales to determine whether or not they want to host MMA events. It’s also not known how quickly the state may be ready to begin its regulatory duties.

UFC president Dana White, though, immediately took to Twitter to express his pleasure over the coming state sanctioning.
