Robinson returns home...

 

UFC veteran Alvin KID Robinson returns to Colorado for the first time in two years.

 

A four time UFC veteran, Robinson is known as one of the slickest ground fighters in

the sport. Robinson holds the rank of Black Belt under the legendary Royce Gracie

and is also a former All American wrestler.

 

Robinson was sidelined during training for ROF 33, but is now injury free and ready to

get back in the cage.

 

"On April 11th I make my return to 145lbs division. The 145lbs division is stacked and I can't wait to fight the

best."

 

"Its honor to be fighting on Ring of Fire again, the show that started my career. I also can't wait to fight in

front of my hometown crowd here in Colorado. The fans here are very loyal and supportive and I plan on

putting on a great fight for them. I have big plans for 2009 and they all start at Ring Of Fire 34. I feel great!

I'm 100% healthy and ready to go."

Morrison wants to impress...

 

Anthony "Ant MO" Morrison was raised in the rough streets of Philadelphia, PA.

 

Morrison has been training with Team Combat for the past year (the camp that

brought up Amir Sadollah) to improve his game. Anthony is moving down from 155lbs

to 145lbs. He feels at that weight, he will be a handful for any opponent.

 

"Alvin is tough opponent and I'm stepping into his back yard for this fight... I like being the underdog and I

think the pressure is on him. This fight means a lot to me and I have faced tough opponents like Alvin

before."

 

"I am going to prove to myself and everyone that I belong here. I dont think Alvin will want to stand with me

so I'm obviously gonna try keep him where he is not comfortable. If it stays on the feet I will KO him. If it

goes to the ground Im looking to pound him out. I am very excited to fight with Ring Of Fire! Some of the

best fighters in the country have come up through this promotion..and to the ROF fans ..I wont disappoint!!.

Nickels ready for test....

 

In the main feature bout of the evening UFC veteran BIG Mike Nickels returns to the

cage.

 

Nickels is a BJJ stylist with a 6-2 record and was featured on season 3 of Spike TV's

Ultimate Fighter. BIG Mike was last seen in action at ROF 32, where he displayed

text book technique in finishing Serbian boxer Vladimir Vuckovic early in the first

round.

 

At ROF 34, Nickels will face the top up and coming light heavyweight in the region, James Funny. Funny has

a very impressive 10-2 MMA record. He is known for both his KO power as well as brute strength on the mat.

Funny is lookin for a win over the UFC vet to launch his career.

 

"I am no one's stepping stone."

 

"If Funny thinks he is going to get a launch in his career by beating me, he has another thing coming. I know

he is supposed to be the next in line, the next tough guy. But he'll quickly find out I'm on a different level. I'll

control the fight and look for an opening, and when I find it..Check Mate!"
