In April, Josh "Taz" Ferguson lost to Mike "The Hulk" Easton at the last Ultimate Warrior Challenge, held in Fairfax, Va. Dropping a weight class - from 135 to 125 - Ferguson returns to the UWC in October to take on Jesse "Mountain Man" Riggleman.
Both fighters are 5'5", 125. Taz, who has a 6-2 record, hails from Louisville, KY and trains at Team Cruz. Riggleman, who has a 5-0 record, is from Harrisonburg, Va. and trains at the MMA Institute.
Taz, as well as his brother BJ, who also trains at Team Cruz, are sponsored by New Cumberland-based mma fightwear company, Tattoo Fightwear, run by Larry Novak.
