Colby Karaidos pulls out of MCC 22, replaced by Nick Walker
Posted by Admin on Aug 28, 2009 in News, Press Releases • No commentsFollowing his stint in the MCC reality show “Making the Fighter”, Colby “The Alligator” Karaidos has withdrawn from his bout against Daraughn Canada, which was to take place next Saturday at MCC 22 “Reality Check”. Karaidos has informed the promotion that due to unforeseen personal issues, he would no longer be training and has decided to close the book on his brief MMA career. MCC co-owner, John Halverson stated, “Colby is a good guy, and he had potential to be a good fighter, but this sport is not for everyone. If you cannot dedicate yourself to the training and everything else that it takes to be a fighter, you need to make that decision. Colby made his, and we wish him all the luck while he sorts out his life.”
MCC was determined to provide Daraughn Canada with a quality opponent, and as soon as the word was out, Nick “The Wolverine” Walker jumped at the opportunity. With a big win over Paul Bird and a good battle with UFC veteran Jeremy Stephens under his belt, the soft spoken mixed martial artist will bring a wealth of experience into the cage as he faces a younger, determined, Canada.
