» Fighter: Wayne Buck

A rematch between badass British pugilist Wayne Buck (4-1) and Italian Muay Thai wrecker Matteo Minonzio (7-6) headlines a 13-fight card in Nottingham 27 September.

Minonzio forced a doctor stoppage “W” over Buck in Nottingham in July, handing Buck his first MMA loss.

Buck is a retired boxer hailing from Nottingham and looking for revenge.  He ended his career in the ring in 2000 at 10-4-1, winning his final five fights.

Saturday afternoon before the fights, Red Devil fighter and coach Fighters.com’s ninth-ranked heavyweight Aleksander Emelianenko (13-3) will hold a seminar featuring DREAM Middleweight GP Champion Gegard Mousasi (24-2-1), UFC welterweight “Outlaw” Dan Hardy (19-6), and “The Machine” Ian Freeman (19-7-1).

Just a week after winning a split decision over Brandon Thatch (3-1) in Beverly Hills, north of Los Angeles, Brandon Magana (6-1) will fight Red Devil’s Erik Oganov (7-7) in Nottingham.

“Maybe six months, maybe six years, who knows,” ended “Semtex” Paul Daley’s (18-6-2) retirement announcement in the Cage Warriors forum last February.

Well, now we know the exciting British welterweight’s hiatus would last even less than six months.

Fighting for the first time in his native Nottingham Saturday night, Daley blasted undefeated Slovenian “Zelva” Bojan Kosednar (6-1) with a left hook at 4:53 of round one.

Lights out Kosednar!

Kosednar had already hit the deck at the end of Daley strikes three times before being knocked out.  The end was inevitable.

Daley is signed to a ProElite contract and his dominant return may have earned him a title shot versus the winner of 26 July’s EliteXC Welterweight Championship fight between eighth-ranked Jake Shields (20-4-1) and ninth-ranked “Goat” Nick Thompson (36-9-1).
