"The Goat" to defend title in Las Vegas
Nick "The Goat" Thompson (39-8-1) will put his bodogFIGHT welterweight title on the line against undefeated John Troyer (8-0) on February 1. The fight will be in Las Vegas.
Thompson is coming off a shoulder injury that sidelined him from giving a rematch to former champion Eddie Alvarez at a November HOOKnSHOOT show in Indiana.
Troyer, fighting out of Louisville, made a name for himself by finishing three opponents in one night on September 29 to win the HOOKnSHOOT middleweight title.
