LAS VEGAS, NV , a well-rounded Mixed Martial Arts ("MMA")
company, announces that Nick "The Goat" Thompson will be fighting
on July 26th on CBS primetime for the EliteXC welterweight title.
His opponent will be Jake Shields, live on CBS -- Saturday, July
26th in Sacramento, California.
Nick Thompson is the BodogFight welterweight champion and is
riding a 12 fight win streak with impressive wins over UFC vet
Chris Wilson and power puncher Eddie Alvarez. "Jake Shields will be
the toughest fight in Thompson's career," states TFZ president
Lloyd Vickers. Jake Shields is considered by many as the 2nd best
welterweight in the world only behind GSP. Shields hasn't lost in
over 4 years with wins over Mike Pyle and current WEC champ Carlos
Condit. This is a huge opportunity for Thompson as he looks to move
up seriously in the world rankings with an impressive showing
against Shields.
"Nick 'The Goat' Thompson is an experienced and outstanding
fighter and we are extremely confident in Nick walking away with a
big victory in this fight," stated Lloyd Vickers, President and CEO
of The Fight Zone. "'The Goat' has 37 wins in his career, going
12-0 in his last 12 fights, and he always brings excitement for the
MMA fans."
