Fighting Machines 10 May 17th.

After the success of Fighting Machines 9, I am pleased to announce the next show on May 17th. With the return of Daitan Jackson and a fantastic 72kg tournament, the show was a success with some fantastic fights on the show.

I am pleased to announce 2 fantastic British Title bouts bound to cause fireworks!

Macauley Coyle, Superpetch v Andy Hughes, Spartans.

A fantastic match up with rising star Macauley returning from Thailand ready to take on the very experienced Andy. A real fight between 2 fighters at the top of their game!!

Re-scheduled from FM9 where Emma picked up an injury,
Emma Bragg, Bolton Thai v Jade Sandlan, Salford/Thai Style.

The rematch that Jade has been waiting for was postponed from February due to injury but now firmly on for May 17th. Lets get this on!!

Any gyms who would like to part of this show please get in touch soon as some verbally agreed matches already in place and will be looking to cap this show at 16 fights max as last show was way to long!

Facebook Thai Fighting Machines, Twitter @FMCSTHELENS, www.fighting-machines.com.

More fights to be announced next week!!

Look forward to it mate :)

Gonna be a cracker Steve!
Have to get Tops on your table mate, he was quality!

Hahahaha he is mate i have booked you in for some dancing lessons with him at the aftershow party :)

I' m taking bookings now for my U.K show tour lol!! My knees are a little messed up after having 3 dance offs and pulling out all the stops. The girl in the lime green jacket and skirt was shocking , didn't expect to see her dropping into the splits! She certainly didn't expect to get them straight back! Looking to get a table up for it Craig to come and give Macauley a bit more noise.

Next fight to be added to the card:

Steven Long, Hanuman v Andrew Primrose, Griphouse.

Straight from his last fight on Super Showdown, Ste is ready to get back to winning ways and looking to take on the rising star from Scotland, Andrew Primrose.
Andrew is undefeated and planning on keeping it that way! He has a big following and will be bringing his fans with him as he aims to add the scalp of seasoned fighter Steven Long to his list.
Both fighters are never in a dull fight so this will be a fight from the 1st bell.

Tickets ready from Monday 17th.

Pleased to announce the Main Event:

A Class 5x3 mins 68kg

Imran Khan, Bad Company v Josh Turbill, Spitfire Gym

2012 saw a winning come-back for Imran following his defeat by TimThomas, he was again fighting against Portuguese champion Miguel Varela and then against World Champion Josh Palmer in late 2012. Imran went onto win the both tough fights. Having time out he's now back fighting again out of World renowned Bad Company gym against 'on fire' Josh Turbill.

Fighting out of Spitfire Gym and trained by Scott Chadwick, Josh has just won his re-match with Ste Long and now ready to take on his biggest fight yet!! Josh is a regular campaigner on Fighting Machines and is a pleasure to have him back!!
Young, talented and loves a scrap, Josh is ready to give it all against a legend of the sport to get the victory!!!

This fight is mouthwatering!!!

Predictions.....

Looks like a good show, would have a cheeky 20spot on Turbill getting the W.

nice lineup

Another A class fight added to the card:

Liam McKendry, M Mag Fight Team v Neil McLeod, Jai MT. 78kg

Liam comes off a big win on FM9 against Gavin Rogerson. A tall awkward talented fighter who makes it look so easy!!

Neil comes from the the Jai Muay Thai gym, trained by Robin Shepherd. Having a good fight record, he is now ready to step up to the mark and share the ring with Liam on FM10. With sparring partners like Luke Turner and Joe Roberts, Neil will have had a great training camp.

See who gets the win May 17th.

Couple of the Pre-Lims fights which will be starting at 3.30pm-6pm approx.

Kai Laithwaite, All Powers v Joe Le Maire, Unit 1
Jack Pemberton, Impact v Nathan Ashcroft,Southport Stars
Will Galloway, Impact v Billy Swan,Sasiprapa Kirkby
Anthony Deary, Thai Style v Danny Kaye,Majestic
Ellis McCarthy, Team St Helens v Adam Penketh, Majestic

Just a few of the Undercard fights....

Another great fight added to the card:

A class 61kg 5x3 mins.

Chris Whittle,Franks Gym v Tim Nutter,Kiatphontip.

Chris is coming of a huge win over the talented and experienced Danny Crompton, Salford Thai, which he beat on the recent Supershowdown. It was a big step up for Chris which he took in his stride and put on a big performance.

Tim has just beat a very good opponent in Harry Ettridge from Kao Loi on his homeshow only last weekend. Tim is a very tough fighter with many skills under the tutelage of Jompop Kiatphontip and team.

This is looking to be a very nice fight indeed!!
