MMA Phuket -

UFC 85 in London showcased two of MMA Phuket’s former training partner/guest instructors. First up for the night was Pancrase London instructor Jess “Joker” Liaudin as he faced rising UFC Welterweight Paul Taylor from England (9-3 record). Jess fought a close three round war, eventually losing a split decision on the judges score cards.

In his second UFC fight in the Welterweight division AKA’s Mike Swick survived a second-round point reduction for grabbing the fence to end Miletich fighting sensation Marcus Davis’s 12 fight win streak. An interesting note: Marcus Davis’s last UFC fight was a win against Jess Liaudin.

TMT would like to congratulate both of these athletes on their strong performances. UFC 85 was shown to millions of viewers world wide, and is another example of why fighters keep choosing to train with MMA Phuket when in Thailand.
