James Thompson, Ross Pointon to appear at Cage Rage 28
August 8, 2008 by Scott White
James “Colossus” Thompson will be returning to his hometown of London, England to compete at Cage Rage 28: VIP. The card, scheduled for Sept. 20th, will feature Thompson going up against Cage Rage veteran Piotr Kusmierz.
Thompson, a veteran of PRIDE and EliteXC, is 2-7 in his last nine bouts though he still has a strong fan following in England. Thompson’s last outing came against Kevin “Kimbo Slice” Ferguson. After three hard fought rounds the bout was stopped when Thompson took a flurry of punches from Slice which popped his cauliflower ear and left him dazed.
Piotr Kusmierz is a relative newcomer to MMA with a record of 1-1. Kusmierz holds a TKO victory over Anton Schutte with his sole blemish coming to Stav Economou at Cage Rage 27: Step Up.
Also scheduled to appear is UFC veteran Ross Pointon who’ll be battling Ch’e Mills for the Cage Rage British welterweight title. Pointon (6-10) is coming off an impressive submission victory over Ross Mason at Cage Rage 26: Extreme.
Ch’e Mills is a Cage Rage veteran who has amassed an impressive record of 6-1 with 1 no contest. Mills holds victories over Marius Zaromskis, Ross Mason, and Afran Saeed.
Does anyone else think it looks like Thompson is trying to crawl out of a big mans suit. His traps look like they should be his shoulders.
Wow that is funny. No shit
“After three hard fought rounds the bout was stopped when Thompson took a flurry of punches from Slice which popped his cauliflower ear and left him dazed.”
Actually it was stopped when they realized Thompson was going to win the decision over Dumbo.
