(October 15th.12) BAMMA is proud to announce a Bantamweight Mixed Martial Arts bout to the BAMMA 11 card at Birmingham’s National Indoor Arena on 1st December, as Nathan Greyson and Bryan Creighton go to battle.

Nathan Greyson fights out of Team Titan with a 3-1-0 professional record and 5 straight wins at Semi Pro. This explosive, relentlessly aggressive up comer has never yet been the distance and has scored all his victories via TKO. The longest it’s taken the 22 year old to dominate an opponent at professional level has been 2 minutes 30 seconds.

British Army Fusilier, Bryan Creighton, moved over to MMA from a successful Thai-boxing career in which he won the following championships:

2005 WAKO Kickboxing and Thai boxing Featherweight

2005 WMF World Championships Bangkok Bronze Featherweight

2006 ISKA British Lightweight Thai boxing

2008 IKF Northwest Lightweight Thai boxing

2008 IKF British Lightweight Thai boxing

2010 Golden Belt Association - Golden Belt Hardcore World Featherweight

Debuting in Professional MMA on short notice, Creighton won his first fight on majority decision in July. A fierce combatant that puts it all on the line, Creighton makes a blistering match for Greyson.

Creighton said:

"After dominating the world of Thai boxing I have transferred my skills from Thai boxing and boxing over to the world of Mixed Martial Arts. I am honoured to be fighting on the biggest show in the UK and I promise to raise the bar in my weight category. I believe I am a well-rounded fighter with many weapons to my arsenal and fans can expect fireworks. My prediction for the fight is pain for my opponent… left , right, left, GOODNIGHT.

"I would like to thank my fans, thank my friends and family for their belief in me and my sponsors, The 2nd Battalion, The Duke of Lancaster’s Regiment, Bodytorque Strength & Conditioning, Dead Fast Clothing, Sapphire MMA and TFL Sports Agency."

Greyson said:

"My Message to the fans is don't blink and my message to my opponent is don't blink."

BAMMA’s Head of Talent Relations, Jude Samuel, said:

"This fight is about revenge: Creighton beat Greyson's team mate earlier this year and Greyson is looking to settle the score. This; plus the talent, explosivity and heart that these fresh talents bring, make all the right ingredients for a preliminary Fight of the Night. Creighton brings the support of the Fusiliers into the house, and Greyson brings the London crowd, so you can expect some noise when these two go head to head at BAMMA 11."
