Langley mixed martial arts fighters had mixed results during Saturday’s Battlefield 49 card at the Hard Rock Casino in Coquitlam.
In the main event, Jared Revel’s aspirations of taking home the Battlefield Fight League (BFL) middleweight belt were dashed by an undefeated foe.
Comox Valley’s Chris Anderson improved to 6-0 and now holds two belts after defeating Revel (5-2) who was profiled by the Langley Times leading up to the match.
The fight ended by TKO (doctor stoppage) after the opening round.
“Just about every left hook I hit him with buzzed him real good,” Anderson said during a post-fight interview on mma-core.com.
Revel had Anderson in trouble with a potentially fight-ending submission hold, but Anderson managed to escape the move.
Meanwhile, fellow Langley fighter Craig ‘Cookie Monster’ Maclean won his bantamweight fight, dropping Blake Sigvaldason with a head kick before moving in to finish the bout via TKO (punches).
It was Maclean’s third pro win.
