Our very own MMA man Chris Rice, is taking on the American John Doyle this evening in the West Point Arena, in Exeter.

In the organisers own words:

Seasoned MMA veteran John Doyle (10-10-0) steps into the cage looking to end his losing streak, facing UK’s very own Chris Rice (15-7-0). Doyle, a 33 year old native of Philadelphia, USA is coming off three submission losses and a majority decision loss, where as Rice is enjoying a winning streak with wins over Rolandas Sicakukas at Ultimate Gladiators (heel hook) and an arm bar win over Aurelijus Kerpe at AM – Night of Champions. With both fighters hungry for victory this looks on paper one of the most anticipated fights of the night.

Best of luck to Chris – hope he can do as well as the student he teaches in his own MMA Academy, Sprawl n Brawl !

Apparently Chris was prepared to fight former cage rage champ Paul Cahoon, however Chris and management want the fight to take place in Birmingham rather than Liverpool. Chris had suffered a very minor injury after his last victory in Nottingham.

Chris’ management have acknowledged that he will fight for European title this year.
