History in the making in Calgary:H2H Lightheavyweight Muay Thai Tournament
Featuring Scott 'Pitbull' Clark (Calgary), 'Cool Hand' Luke Riddering (USA), Ronald de Groot (Holland), and Oliver 'All Over' Davis (Toronto)
Canada plays host to 'H2H Icebreaker' highlighted by the first 4 Man Muay Thai Tournament in the Lightheavyweight Division. The event takes place on Saturday December 2nd, 2006 and the athletes will be fighting under Full Muay Thai rules.
Athlete Profile: 'COOL HAND' LUKE RIDDERING
On paper, the underdog and the athlete with the least amount of experience in the 4 man tournament is American athlete 'Cool Hand' Luke Riddering. Sitting on only 9 registered bouts, winning 7 of those by KO and currently undefeated, the tale of the tape and what is reality show two completely different stories. To quote Luke, he "has had a ton of smokers (club fights)" in California and estimates are his record to be 3 to 4 times what you see. Trained by both John Hackleman and UFC Champion Chuck Liddell (Luke is one of his sparring partners), the switch hitting Luke steps up for this tournament ready, willing, able and confident of the win. Opinions from some of the top Muay Thai, Kickboxing and MMA trainers in the USA, include the observation that Riddering is an incredible technician, one of the hottest prospects in the sport and on this event, and predictions are that he will inevitably win the tournament and become the 1st H2H Lightheavyweight Muay Thai Tournament Champion. "I look forward to the opportunity and I promise to war with whomever is in front of me!", says Riddering.
On December 2nd, 2006 'H2H Icebreaker' will reveal if all those experts in the USA are correct, and if Davis, de Groot, and Clark will dispute these predictions with their punches, elbows, knees and kicks.
