Mark Godbeer Vs. Paul Taylor
BAMMA gets ready to crown it's first ever Heavyweight Champion at BAMMA 21. Mark Godbeer returns to fight for the belt after his defeat of Thomas Denham at BAMMA 19, and will face off against Birmingham's own Paul Taylor.
Mark Godbeer recently returned to his original training camp at All or Nothing. The impact was instant with his dominant display against Denham in Blackpool. Godbeer is undefeated at BAMMA and now looks to add the BAMMA World title to his 9-2 record.
Paul Taylor was meant to make his BAMMA debut against Callum Cooke, but the bout was cancelled due to injury. Taylor now gets the chance to take the biggest win of his career and the BAMMA World Title on the 13th June. Currently on a 4 fight win streak, the West Midlands based Taylor record stands at 8-3.
