    City Kickboxing striker Brad “Quake” Riddell won an all-important bout in his MMA career with a unanimous decision victory over Mikey Vaotuua to claim the Wars welterweight title on Friday night.

    The bout headlined Wollongong Wars 7 which was held at the Beaton Park ‘Snakepit’ Stadium in Gwynneville, New South Wales.

    A veteran of over 70-bouts across various disciplines and a multiple time kickboxing titlist, Riddell has now won back-to-back MMA fights after a submission loss to Abel Brites last July. His MMA record stands at 4-1.

    PMA gym fighter Saeid Fatahifar continued his success capturing the MASA South Pacific welterweight strap with a knock-out victory over Riddell’s team-mate John Vake. A thunderous head-kick, early in the second round, ended the contest and he moved to 8-4. Nicknamed “The Phantom”, he has lost just twice in his last ten outings.

    In the third feature fight of the night, Jacob Malkoun, a team-mate of Rob Whittaker who was on hand in his corner, overcame Belgium born, Thailand based Christophe Van Dijk. In a back-and-forth battle, the Smeaton Grange Gracie trained fighter ended the battle in the second round when a flurry from Malkoun forced the referee stoppage. The middleweight fighter now moves to 3-0.

    Started Martial Arts training after watching Mr Miyagi and Daniel-son in Karate Kid back in 1987. By the time MMA arrived many years later, I was hooked. Coverage of local MMA was via scarce posts on forums like the Underground and Sherdog. I embarked on covering the sport in 2002 and since then have written thousands of articles for both print and online media, before branching out and starting Fight News Australia in 2010. Outside the site, I dream of riding in an F1 car or a Jet Fighter. Anyone have a spare one lying around?
