The WKU (World Karate Union) Warrior Challenge, scheduled for June 26 at Pocono Manor, has its headline bout. Earlier this week, I announced that Hollidaysburg, Pa.-native and welterweight fighter Charlie "The Spaniard" Brenneman would be there. And now, thanks to an email from Mark Jovich, we know who he's fighting: Marcus Ajian, a 4-4 fighter who lost to Mitch Whitesel at Iron Will Fighting's first show last month Charlie, a Tap or Sleep sponsored fighter, was also on the card, notching a win by rear-naked choke against Chris Thomas in the second round. (I had said the win was by tap-out, but to strikes in the first. My bad.). To have a fighter of Charlie's caliber on the event is definitely a feather in promoter Mark Jovich's cap.
