Alex Reid returns at BAMMA 11

[Evzy]

Its a matter of time before there is a serious accident in UK MMA, without a governing body things like Mike Persil, UK1 and Ultimate ball will always crop up.

Sorry but have to admit this had me chuckling quite a lot... things like Mike Persil...

However the level of Alex's opponents have been through the roof, I was cage side for most of these, he fights better under pressure, although he isn't A big name now, he is worthy. I am guessing you are a Denniston fan.

Yep. Tough not to be a Deniston fan I think, dude is such a nice guy and always gives it his all. More to the point though, I'm a 'fighter-who's-lost-seven-on-the-bounce-not-getting-title-shots' fan.

He did win Big Brother so doesn't that make him 1-7?

And that staged UCMMA fight so thats 2-7 - things are looking up

Edit: plus he beat the snowman on BB so thats 3-7

Yeah but the snowman was under UK-1 rules so it doesn't count.

I believe on the Extra's on the DVD it was amended to full uk MMA rules. Or was it the directors cut?

It is better to have people think you are stupid rather than type something and confirm it for all.

Doesn't it make business sense for Reid/ Giles which will attract interest from outside of MMA, then after Reid gets an impressive KO put him in for a title shot vs. Marshman?

[Grizzly.]

^ That's another argument but Marshman is the only person BAMMA seem to be interested in, as well as the Middleweight division, I'm bored of seeing Watson (granted he won't fight there again) and Marshman etc, I want to see new fights, get Sinclair more involved, bring back Adams to defend the Featherweight strap, focus on crowning 'World Champions' at HW, LHW, WW and BW possibly even flyweight if the depth is there.

EDIT - by the above statement I'm not saying Marshman bores me in the slightest I enjoy watching him fight but all the BAMMA's for a while have sort of just been based on Watson and Marshman and the World MW title and British MW title.

Yeh get some good fw's an bw fights on bamma.
