Team Hellboy’s Celine Haga makes her UCMMA debut on a card that already has captured the public’s imagination.
UCMMA 22 will appear live on pay per view and is headlined by a bout that has ignited the fans in heated debate between tabloid favourite Alex Reid and Jason Barrett.
Haga’s opponent on August 6th will be London Shootfighters prospect Michelle Tyler who looked phenomenal in her debut back in December against Vicki Watts; winning by third round knockout.
“I’m excited to fight in Ucmma, and since I’m not used to fighting in a cage its gonna be really exciting. To be honest whether it is Asia or Europe; when the moment of truth is arriving it is all about myself and my opponent.”- Celine Haga
Celine recently went the distance with the always dangerous Kyoko Takabayashi on the Jewels event and showed flashes of brilliance before narrowly losing out on the cards but it’s clear that Haga learned a a lot from this defeat.
“You can expect to see what I’ve gained from my loss and my hunger for new challenge. I been through hell and back a couple of times and I’ve got nothing to lose therefore I’ve got nothing to fear and everything to give. I will show my hunger for victory; a hunger that only a person who have been through this know what feels like. I no longer fight for a pretty record nor others opinion. Now I ll fight for myself, because this is what I love to do.” – Celine Haga
This fight was set to originally take place at UCMMA 20 but was rescheduled following an injury to Tyler and now both fighters seem more than ready to put on a phenomenal show.
