Ireland’s own double champion Will Fleury defends his heavyweight crown this weekend at Oktagon 81.
The Irishman primarily trains in his homeland of the Emerald Isle but has been over in the north west of England getting some training in at Manchester Top Team. The UK gym is home to some of the hottest talents in Britain and have a plethora of fighters across the top MMA organisations. Most notably UFC featherweight Lerone Murphy whom is rumoured to be headlining the UFC London event in March next year. Murphy was snubbed for a title shot at 145lbs and will most likely face Movsar Evolev in a number one contender match up in the English capital.
