Brennan Ward among AMMO participants this month
by Brian Woodman Jr. on 08/15/14
Connecticut's own Brennan Ward, who will fight in Bellator 123 at Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, will compete in one of two "super fights" to be held on Aug. 30 by the Ammo Fight League. The organization currently stages mixed grappling events in which strikes are not allowed.
Ward will compete against Dan Simmler, who has competed in previous Ammo events.
Ward defeated Justin Torrey and Mikkel Parlo in Bellator's ninth season middleweight tournament before losing to middleweight champion Alexander Shlemenko earlier this year. His entrance into the tournament was certainly a Cinderella story in the classic sense; he was brought in as a replacement when he fought Torrey at Mohegan Sun in the first leg of the tournament.
Jarrid Heon will also compete in a featured bout at 155 pounds with rival Tommy Venticinque.
We will post more details as the event approaches.
