Bangor, Maine (Jiyè 30, 2016) - Jarod “Dènye minit” Lawton (4-2) has a new opponent this Friday night in Bangor at “NEF Presents Dana Blan: Lookin’ for a Fight.” Lawton’s original opponent, Mike Hansen (4-4), pulled out of the middleweight contest with an injury just days before the start of fight week. NEF officials scoured the country for someone to step up on a mere week’s notice and face the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt Lawton. Not an easy task, to say the least. NEF matchmaker Matt Peterson was able to secure a replacement opponent in the form of David “Redneck” Mundell (5-1) of Dunedin, Florida.
Mundell is a purple belt fighting out of Gracie Clearwater. His only loss as a professional came in his last fight this past spring. An reyalite, Mundell had not lost a single round in any of his previous five professional fights to that point. He is the reigning Florida State Professional MMA Welterweight Champion. Mundell held several titles in the amateur ranks before turning pro.
While most competitors would shy away from the prospect of facing a black belt on a week’s notice in front of UFC President Dana White, Mundell approaches the fight with a workmanlike outlook.
“It’s just another day at the office,” said Mundell when reached for comment.
“I am excited to still be a part of the show and thankful Dave Mundell was willing to step up on short notice to take the fight,” Di Lawton. “He is a well-rounded fighter, and I am expecting to put on one of the best fights of the night as always!”
