Jack ‘Hammer’ Marshman in World Title bid

 

Paratrooper and current British middleweight champion, Jack Marshman, had a World Title shot against the vastly experienced BAMMA middleweight champion Tom “Kong” Watson. The fight topped the bill at BAMMA9 on March 24th in Birmingham. Despite a brave battle and the support of the crowd, Jack’s challenge was stopped by Watson. But he’ll be back – the noise at the NIA made it clear he is  a very popular fighter.
