Three Title Fights at FX3 - MMAUniverse.com

On Saturday 13th September 2008 The Rivermead Complex, Reading UK will host a night of World Class Mixed Martial Arts action including three World Title fights at FX3: The Reckoning.

The Vacant Heavy Weight Title is up for grabs as K1 Veteran James McSweeney takes on Birmingham based fighter Chris Cooper.

James McSweeney is a K1 veteran standing 6ft 3inch tall and is known for his heavy hands and has an extensive back ground in Kick Boxing and K1. He holds some impressive wins over fighters such as Mark Buchanan. Both guys like to stand and trade and this has the makings of a Knock Out title fight.

Ryan Robinson will be putting his Light Heavy Weight Championship on the line against a very confident Denniston Sutherland who has recently claimed to be the Number one Light Heavy Weight in the UK. Ryan is a veteran of the sport and has been in the cage against a who’s who of opponents including Ian Freeman, Rob Broughton and Mark Epstein. Denniston has only been competing professionally for the last year. This is defiantly a put up or shut up match up as Sutherland has publically called out the best and Robinson has willingly accepted his call.

The third title fight on the card is for the UK-1 Heavy Weight Title. FX3 veteran Peter Mercer is currently unbeaten in his professional career. However he makes a huge step up as he faces off against the 24 year old Italian Will Riva. Both guys are predicting a KO victory so hold tight as sparks are going to fly...

Poland’s Heavy Weight fighter Popek Rak is also making his FX3 debut on the card. Popek is well known for his heavy hands and aggression inside the cage and he is currently unbeaten. Popek will face off against Sander Duyvis who is fighting out of Mikes Gym in Holland. This will be Sander’s second professional MMA bout however he defiantly has experience in the ring with numerous K1 fights.

Also fighting out of Mikes Gym in Holland is light weight fighter Danny ver Bergen. In his last outing in the UK he suffered a loss to UFC fighter Terry Etim. This time round he faces the unbeaten Tim Radcliffe who is currently 04:00:00 and is making a name for himself as one to watch in the UK. Both guys are submission specialists and both want the win so expect a very fast paced and exciting match up.

Jason Jones not only looks similar in build but is also the training partner of K1 and MMA legend Melvin Manhoef. However Lloyd Clarkson has never been one to worry about size of his opponent in a fight and has been known in the past to give away over 10 kilos in weight. Jason is a M1, King of the Cage and K1 veteran and judging by his record likes to win by any means possible. Both fighters have very rounded skills and this looks set to possibly be the fight of the night!.
