SHOWTIME, tape delay immediately following SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP
BOXING cruiserweight world title unification bout between Enzo
Maccarinelli (World Boxing Organization) and David Haye (World Boxing
Council/World Boxing Association) at the O2 Arena in London, live at 9
p.m. ET/PT (delayed on the west coast)




Shamrock vs. Berry

This fight is destined to be an absolute war and for Robert Berry, the
biggest challenge of his MMA career. After having been forced to retire
after the first round in his fight against Neil Grove, Berry will be out
to prove a point to all the watching fans as he takes on a living legend
in MMA. Ken Shamrock needs no introduction whatsoever and remains
supremely confident in his ability to stand and trade with anyone or
take it to the ground. Berry's ground game is vastly underestimated and
should contribute to this fight living up to its main billing.





Silva vs. Imanari

This is another fight fans will not want to miss as two of the world's
top featherweights go head to head. Imanari will be making his second
title defense against former Cage Rage Champion Jean Silva, who has
openly proclaimed that he will do what it takes to get his title back.
Both these fighters are technically gifted in all areas, which will make
this one of the fights of the night





Grove vs. Broughton

Fan favorite Rob Broughton is returning after suffering severe injury
problems. Broughton became an instant hit when he made his debut as an
underdog against heavyweight superstar James Thompson. He surprised
everyone by stopping Thompson via vicious ground and pound. He will now face one of his toughest tests when he goes head to head with
heavyweight title contender Neil Grove. Grove, a towering practitioner
of Gojo Ryu Karate, also had an impressive win over Thompson in ten
seconds with a devastating right hand. He followed that with a first
round stoppage of Dominic Ostich, a formidable kickboxer, and Cage Rage
veteran Robert "Buzz" Berry. One question remains will "The Bear" have
what it takes to stop the reign of Goliath.





Watson vs. Guillet

These two middleweights are dangerous opponents for any fighter they
face, but to be facing one another is a middleweight dream fight. Both
Watson and Guillet have had recent losses and both will be out to get
back to winning ways as the cage door shuts. Tom Watson, a former boxer with excellent technical stand up striking, has recently spent time
training in the states to improve on his wrestling and submission
skills. Pierre Guillet is a well rounded fighter and has proven to be
one of the toughest fighters on the Cage Rage middleweight roster. This
will be great fight between two technically skilled fighters.

Shamrock needs a win as bad as I NEED some beer.
