Nottingham. Home of Robin Hood, a man who would fight for the poor by stealing from the rich with Morgan Freeman in tow. Robin Hood was known for his skills with a bow and arrow, but legend also says he had solid standup and grappling skills that were displayed in Sherwood forest with Little John (McCarthy) presiding as the ref.
Now Tom ‘Kong’ Watson is heading to Nottingham to prove his worth against Brad Tavares in his first UFC fight after spending his six-year career in Cage Rage, MFC and BAMMA. Some may not be familiar with this homecountry favorite, so for the Kong-uninitiated Rick Lee made a nifty video filling us in on who this bloke is – in aesthetically pleasing way. Check it out, and make sure you listen for the excited clinking of teacups around England tomorrow for UFC on Fuel TV 5.
