Co Main Event
Andy Farrell ENGLAND v Allan Love SCOTLAND at Middleweight With a solid background in BJJ and Judo, Andy Farrell (2-1), brings a wealth of experience to his MMA career. A veteran of the fight game, Andy also runs the successful Farrell MMA, and the explosive grappler has a vast amount of experience ready to take on Scottish Middleweight Allan Love (7-1). Former pro wrestler Allan Love has shot up through the ranks to take the Scottish No1 spot at Middleweight, and has big wins to his name including highly touted Englishman Rob Mills. Allan’s stand out wrestling has made him a fighter to be feared and he will be looking to keep the pressure on Farrell throughout this dynamic bout.
Paul Cook ENGLAND - v - James Mair SCOTLAND at Welterweight
Paul Cook (10-1) is a British title holder with a strong brawling style and heavy hands who likes to impose his will on his opponents and Ground & Pound his way to victory. After a ten-fight winning streak, Cook lost his first pro fight at TFC earlier this year to tough Scott Ward, getting caught in a tight triangle choke. Now the man known as ‘Cookie’ looks to get back to his winning ways against the ever-dangerous James ‘Night’ Mair (8-4). A strong wrestler with crisp stand up and razor sharp elbows, former Middleweight Mair uses his non-stop style to ensure that his fights are always fast paced and action packed. This fight is guaranteed to be explosive, and will be a sure-fire way
for both men to see where they stand in the British Welterweight rankings. Let the fireworks begin…
