Tonight! Oli Thompson defending UCMMA title!

After a perfect twelve week training camp, UCMMA Heavyweight Champion, Oli Thompson is ready to defend his title at the Troxy in London this evening against Mark Potter.



In preparation for this fight, Oli sandwiched his training with Christian Vila, with a filler of five weeks training in Huntington beach California, U.S.A.
Here he trained alongside sparring partner Cheik Congo, who is also fighting this weekend at UFC Live, against Pat Barry (http://uk.ufc.com/event/UFCLive4#/fight).
Supported by a great team including Dave Jackson and coach Dan Marino, Oli evolved his fighting skills further with hours of sparring with top level fighters at the Huntington Beach Ultimate Training Centre.

Having returned from his U.S.A training camp, sharper and fitter than ever, Oli then continued his training with Christian Vila who pushed his cardio further using Hurricanes and relentless combat circuits.

See how Oli prepared for this fight in the following video:


In short this has been the best training camp yet, with Oli fitter, stronger and more skilled than ever. 
Mark Potter will be facing the best Oli Thompson yet- who is evolving as a fighter with each training camp.
