Tom 'Kong' Watson Signs 3 Fight Deal With MFC

[TNE]

We are pleased to announce that Tom 'Kong' Watson has this morning signed a 3 fight deal with Maximum Fighting Championships in Canada.

His first fight will be on 26th February 2010 at the River Cree Resort & Casino in Edmonton, Canada. His opponent has been confirmed as Travis Galbraith (15-6-0). The contract is partially exclusive, still allowing Tom to fight in his already contracted bout against Alex Reid in May.

With the likes of Thales Leites, Dean Lister and Travis Lutter in the MFC MW division there are sure to be some tough tests for Tom over the next year, but we feel he is up to challenge and with his new home at Tristar in Montreal we are sure he will be ready for whatever they throw at him!

He'd beat Lister, not sure about Lutter but he won't beat Lietes. Goodluck to him.

Is this the same promotion that Tim Radcliffe has signed to?

Nice work. Is this an exclusive deal or can Tom fight on other shows?

Does Tom have a title? If so, and it's an exclusive deal, does he vacate or somethig?

Good to see Tom doing well... exciting fighter and he needs the step up to interantional level now

He can still fight on other shows with the permission of MFC, however we have the Reid fight written into the contract so permission has been granted for this fight.

There has been no decision from Ultimate Challenge as to whether they will ask Tom to relinquish his title although I see this as unlikely as he still may defend it should an opponent who deserves a shot comes along.

Great stuff. Tom is a great guy. Hope he does well.

Chatfield the belt vultcher on it straight away. LOL

[MMA RULES]

Good luck Tom. WAR.
