The highly anticipated Matt Cain V Luke Picklum showdown resulted in a split draw which has brought about a little controversy. Popular opinion has Matt regarded as the dominant fighter. After surviving and early rear choke attempt from Picklum Matt Cain dominated the second and third round. Luke Picklum is a tough and highly regarded opponent and he put up a great fight after a number of years out of the cage.
Matt is very keen to put the matter to rest in what will be a well worthy rematch fight. If agreed to by Picklum’s team the fight may take place on the July 11th on CFC’s debut event on the Gold Coast in QLD.
Also it was announced that IMA/Fairtex Champion Adrian Pang will get his title shot at Rob Hill. What an awesome match for the first CFC event in Queensland.
Matt and IMA would like to thank CFC, our supporters and sponsors Fairtex, MMA Sports Magazine, MMA Factory.com.au, All Type Cabinets and Assasinz.
