Anthony Nieves vs. Chris Clodfelter set for Bangkok Fight Night 11 in Atlanta

Muay Thai Authority has been informed by Bangkok Fight Night promoter Khunpon Dechkampu that Anthony Nieves will face Chris Clodfelter in a re-match at Bangkok Fight Night 11. The event will take place October 22nd at Center State in Atlanta, GA and in addition to Nieves vs. Clodfelter it will feature a main event fight between Cyrus Washington and Stephen Richards. The first fight between Nieves and Clodfelter was ruled a no contest after Nieves connected with an elbow to the back of the head on Clodfelter and he could not continue.

Nieves has not competed in Muay Thai action in over a year. A slew of fights have fallen through for Nieves and he has been moon lighting in boxing and MMA to stay busy. Nieves fights out of Knuckle Up in Douglasville, GA and if there was one word to describe Nieves fight style, violent is the best word to use. He moves forward and looks to take you out with every powerful strike he throws. Never a boring fighter, Nieves not only possesses deadly power, he is also highly technical. His return to Muay Thai action is long over due and he should be ready to put on an exciting fight for the fans.

Clodfelter fights out of Eight Points Muay Thai in Clemmons, North Carolina. Clodfelter has competed primarily in MMA as of late, but holds a USMTA 155 lb title in Muay Thai. In his previous fight with Nieves, Clodfelter let Nieves push the pace and it seemed to present problems for him before the fight was stopped because of the elbow to the back of the head. It will be interesting to see how his tactics change for this re-match.
