Co-Main Event
Billy "Chumbawumba" Badonkadonk vs Mamba Muamba
This fight is between two MMA debutants. Muamba is finally making his pro MMA debut at the age of 25 after spending a lot of time trying to improve his wrestling skill. Adding this improved wrestling to his top level boxing. The favourite Muamba definetley has the potential to become a huge star in the HEROES organisation.
His opponent Billy "Chumbawumba" Badonkadonk is also making his pro MMA debut. Well versed in all aspects of MMA except in BJJ, Badonkadonk is hoping to make a successful start to his career and cause an upset against his Zimbabwean opponent by exploiting Muamba's weakness in the clinch.
Jan Nowicki vs Wojciech "Grzdyl" Sakrucki
This fight has caught the eye of many hardcore MMA fans as these two fighters managed to impress in their HEROES debut both stopping their opponents in the opening round. 21 year old, Wojciech Sakrucki, spent a few years developing his boxing and BJJ before deciding to take his first professional fight earlier this month and surprised the UK MMA community with an 18 second Arm-Triangle submission victory over Wojciech Kaeld whilst earning submission of the night honours in the process. He will hope to continue his promising start to his MMA career with another quick win over Jan Nowicki.
Polish-born Jan Nowicki, is also hoping to collect another win after knocking out Red Belt in under 4 minutes in his MMA debut. He comes into this fight as a heavy underdog and hopes to snag an upset over the older Sakrucki.
Red Belt vs Andy "Coach" Marlow
After a disappointing start to his professional career, Red Belt, is hoping his superior wrestling skill will be enough to neutralise the boxing and muay thai skill of Andy Marlow. He has been looking to improve his striking at the SWF GYM in London in order to become a force in the sport.
His opponent, Andy "Coach" Marlow is hoping to make a successful start to his MMA career but has been given a tough matchup by the HEROES matchmakers. He will be looking to stop Red Belt's takedowns and finish him on the feet.
Tadas Menelaos vs Petera "The Fierce" Moana
Greek-born Tadas Menelaos who now fights out of the Basic Gymnasium in London impressed in his pro MMA debut with a 43 second TKO win over Junior Dos Santos Blachowicz. He has top level wrestling skill and has ever-improving boxing technique. He will hope to dispose of his opponent just as quickly as he did of Dos Santos in his first pro fight.
His opponent New Zealander Petera "The Fierce" Moana impressed the HEROES owner in his pro debut by putting in a Fight of the Night performance despit losing a unanimous decision to Ricky Bong. He will be hoping to bounce back against the strong wrestler Menelaos but he will have a hard time trying to stop his takedown due to his high level wrestling but Moana's superior boxing skill could help him cause the upset.
Jimmi Pursey vs Wade Porter
Both fighters had contrasting starts to their pro MMA careers with Pursey losing by 2nd round KO in the first HEROES event back in April whereas Porter managed to snag a submission victory by armbar less than 30 seconds into the first round. Pursey has relatively mediocre skills across all aspects of MMA. He has a purple belt in BJJ and is a pretty strong wrestler however he may be hoping to keep this fight in c the clinch up against the cage in order to exploit his opponent's weak Muay Thai skills.
Porter on the other hand has exceptional BJJ and has already achieved a Brown belt at the age of 20. He was impressive in his debut and will hope to manage to snag another win under the HEROES banner. He will probably aim to keep on the outside of his opponent's clinch game but if Pursey does manage to tie him up I'm sure he won't be afraid to pull guard an fight off of his back.
Undercard
Daniels "Double D" Drinkis vs Qwerty "Zxcvbn" Asdfgh
This is a fight that contains one of MMA's biggest prospects, Daniels "Double D" Drinkis had a sensational debut in the sport with a dominant victory over Donpedro Jebaka in which he collected a submission victory. Drinkis has already shown his unbelieveable ground game with his world class wrestling, a brown belt in Brazillian Jiu-Jitsu while developing his Muay thai to a top level. He still only has basic boxing skills but at the young age of 20 but that will surely improve as he advances in his career.
His opponent Qwerty "Zxcvbn" Asdfghis, who had a disappointing Knockout loos in his MMA debut, is already a world class boxer who transitioned from the sport of boxing to MMA he is already imroving his Muay Thai skills but is still to master even the basics of wrestling and BJJ which signals for a really tough night unless he can catch Drinkis off guard or when he is shooting for a takedown. This could be a fight to help pad Drinkis' record before he steps up in competition but it also could be a shock to the UKMMA scene if Asdfgh can pull off the upset.
Antoni Zytaminski vs Kimboso "Akky" Akamawah
This is a fight between 2 MMA debutants. Kimboso "Akky" Akamawah is a fighter who has mastered the basics in all aspects of MMA but has yet to excell in any one of the skills. He will hope to make a promising start to his MMA career.
His opponent Antoni Zytaminski is a top level Muay Thai fighter and will hope to keep this fight up against the fence in the clinch or at kicking distance. He will hope to stop his opponent from taking it to the mat due to his lack of BJJ and wrestling skill.
Donpedro Jebaka vs Jake Roberts
Jebaka was handed a tough MMA debut against promising Daniels Drinkis in which he managed to last until the midway point of the 2nd round. He will hope to pick up his career after a shaky start and add his first win to his record.
His opponent is making his MMA debut and will be aiming to make a positive start after getting a hold of all the basic MMA skills. This fight could be surprisingly exciting.
Jan Kowalski vs Akira Toriyama
This fight was supposed to heppen at the first HEORES event but Kowalski missed the lightweight limit by 3lbs hopefull he can make the weight this time around an put on a show for the fans. If he misses weight again don't be surpriseed if he gets cut from the roster.
