War Machine v Zach Light Set For BAMMA 3 23 Apr 2010 BAMMA today announce the addition of yet another huge bout to the BAMMA 3 card in the form of War Machine v Zach Light.

War Machine is undoubtedly one of the most colourful characters in MMA and regularly makes headlines all over the world. Starting life under the name of Jon Koppenhaver, Jon decided that his new nickname was a better fit to his character and legally changed his name to War Machine. Causing all sorts of controversy and drama on TUF, his UFC debut against Jared Rollins earned him Fight of the Night on TUF: Team Hughes vs. Team Serra. It was a brutal 3 rounder that showcased War Machine's tenacity, striking, ground game and his cast iron jaw.

Now set on putting his chequered path behind him and determined to focus 100% on his MMA career, War Machine comes to fight in the UK for the first time against Zach Light.

Zach Light is quickly becoming one of the biggest and most respected coaches in the MMA world. He currently coaches MMA legends Rampage Jackson and Michael Bisping - so expect him to have one of the best corners in the game. He is a two time All American wrestler but his greatest strengths lie in his incredible in-depth knowledge of MMA and the meticulous preparation that he brings to each of his opponents and fights.

However, this is one match that Zach Light will already be fully prepared for. Both Zach Light and War Machine used to train together and it is well known within the MMA world that there is absolutely no love lost between these two fighters. This is a true grudge match in every sense and is a fight that has been a long time coming for both fighters. Neither will want to back down one inch and we anticipate a match up of truly epic proportions.
