Valimaki has to have the longest run of fighting for the same regional promotion that I've seen.

He's dropped out of a ridiculous amount of fights over the past few years, but he fought in May so hopefully he'll make it to this one. This is an awesome fight to test Osheim.

My thoughts exactly.

Andrew McInnes will be taking on former UFC fighter Alvin Robinson at Maximum Fighting Championship 41 on October 3 in Edmonton, Alberta. It was originally rumoured that McInnes would take on Jacob Volkmann, but McInnes announced the official matchup today on Twitter.

My thoughts exactly.

I'm hoping he gets a few more wins and gets the call up, the guy looks legit.

Shame that WSOF got pushed back a week. a MFC Friday Night/WSOF Saturday Night double header would have been pretty good. Definitly would have made the drive over for that.

MFC 41: All In Main Card
Tom Gallicchio (c) vs. Marcus Edwards

 

[BOXINGLOPEZ]

With several injuries taking place, the Maximum Fighting Championship is announcing two major lineup changes to the MFC 41: All In card taking place on Friday, October 3 in Edmonton, Alberta, and live on AXS TV Fights.

Reigning MFC lightweight champion Tom Gallicchio has been forced out of his first title defense due to a severe elbow injury. With Gallicchio shelved, top-ranked lightweight contender Marcus “Bad Intentions” Edwards (7-2) will now meet striking sensation Shane “Shaolin” Campbell (9-2) in a unique MFC superfight.

If Edwards is victorious, he will not only be named the interim lightweight champion, he will automatically be placed into a title fight against either Gallicchio (should he return from injury in a reasonable timeframe) or a new challenger. Should Campbell come out on top, he will get an immediate shot at the vacant MFC welterweight title. The Edwards-Campbell matchup will take place at a catchweight of 161 pounds.



Campbell was first slated to face veteran Pete Spratt at MFC 41 but he was sidelined due to a back injury. Carl Dieckmann was then put in Spratt’s spot only to come up injured as well.

On another injury front, Alvin Robinson has bowed out of his bout against Andrew McInnes (4-1) due to a hand injury. But “Andrewconda” will still be putting his slick submission skills to the test as he now faces rugged veteran “Diamond” Ryan Healy (25-13-1).

MFC's heavier weight classes are sooooo shallow. Osheim is an awesome signing, but outside of that it's dead.
