Going to keep this thread updating with what's going on in Liam O'Connor's MMA career. Not sure if anyone has done anything like this before but hopefully we'll see a star born. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://mmatycoon.com/gallery/22/22w23.jpg "Lucky" Liam O'Connor 25 years old 185lbs 1-0 Remember the name because Liam O'Connor is going to be the #1 fighter on The Island when it's first season is finished. Despite only moving to The Island to showcase his talent recently, he's already picked up a win, a win in the Middleweight VIP Fight! Tournament Round 1, which he secured in the 1st round via Submission (Guillotine). He's scheduled to face Luke Marshall (2-0), in the 2nd round of the tournament. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://mmatycoon.com/gallery/22/22w23.jpg "Lucky" Liam O'Connor 25 years old 185lbs 2-0 Sometimes we see debates about whether or not a fighter just got "lucky" in a fight or if he just is the better fighter. There's talk about whether or not Liam O'Connor (2-0), is the real deal or if he has just been lucky so far in his MMA career. He's already racked up 2 wins in a row and with his last one being in convincing fashion, any fighter to underestimate him will be making a foolish mistake. Luke Marshall (2-1) looked like he could have been the next big thing, being 2-0 in his first two fights, one of which being a KO win in the first round. Many believed he was the favourite going into this fight having displayed great boxing skill in his first fight and KO power by getting the KO win, whereas Liam O'Connor didn't really have his chin tested in his first fight and some might say that it was a bit scrappy, others would say he just got lucky getting the submission win. Despite being the underdog, Liam came out and proved his point, that he can stand with better boxers and come out victorious and was actually close to securing a KO win having rocked Luke Marshall earlier in the fight. After some nice clinchwork, Liam pulled guard and went for a triangle choke which left Luke Marshall tapping out, giving Liam his second W in his MMA career. Will Liam O'Connor continue to rack up the wins on The Island? Or will his luck eventually run out?
