Fletcher had this to say on his upcoming bout with Brightmon:  "I literally can't wait to fetch my carnival of pain back to the BAMMA cage.  It's been a little while but I haven't taken my foot off the pedal training wise!  I've been lurking in the gym 24/7 as I'm desperate to get back to finishing fights early.  I'm getting bored of winning decisions.  The crowd at Manchester are in for a Freakshow spectacular come December 6th Heeheeheehee"

 

Flying in from Honolulu in Hawaii, Michael Brightmon, brings a professional fight record of 12-4-0 to the BAMMA cage.
