Thompson defends title in Las Vegas

10 in a row for The Goat. University of Minnesota Law student Nick Thompson defeated current HOOKnSHOOT middleweight champion John Troyer (8-1) last night to retain his bodogFIGHT welterweight title.

Despite suffering an early broken nose, Thompson (34-9-1) eventually took Troyer to the mat and submitted him with a rear naked choke at 3:46 of the first round.

Thompson had indicated earlier that this was his last fight under his current bodogFIGHT contract. He stated that he has received offers from World Victory Road, Hardcore Championship Fighting as well as bodogFIGHT.
