Marks recent fight against the Reidenator caused a stir in the MMA world and must be one of the best fights we have seen on these shores. Although Mark didn't have a lot to gain from this fight, he enjoyed it and said that Mr Reid was very determined and Mark was surprised that he didn't try and take the fight to the floor. "It certainly was a war", he caught me early on in the first round which just ticked me off and made me fight harder..." "it was a great fight and very entertaining for the crowd......it was a war of attrition, he wanted to stand with me....which is where I come from and was my bread and butter for years so he was always going to have a job on his hands". "I didn't get injured and was able to finish it off in the 2nd round....my respect to Alex for good fight!"
