Noons Expects Another 'Fight of the Night' Performance - MMA Combat

Saturday, March 3, 2012, Strikeforce will go live from the Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio, for Strikeforce - Tate vs. Rousey, featuring a women's 135lb title tilt between champion Miesha Tate and #1 contender, Ronda "Rowdy" Rousey.

The co-main event showcases two of the promotion's top lightweight talents in K.J. Noons and former champion Josh Thomson; during a media conference call leading up to this weekend's card, which will air live on SHOWTIME, Noons was confident as always in his ability to please the crowd.

“I don’t really have to say too much. My fight is always ‘Fight of the Night,’ and K.J. Noons is definitely stealing the show. Look at my track record... I’m really excited to be fighting somebody like Josh Thomson; it’s gonna be a barnburner. I’m training as hard as I’ve ever trained, so I’m ready.”

Noons (11-4-0), who recently posted back-to-back losses for the first time in his career to Nick Diaz and Jorge Masvidal respectively, rebounded in December with a solid decision victory over Billy Evangelista at Strikeforce - Melendez vs. Masvidal. With eight TKOs on record, the boxing prowess of Noons cannot be denied, but despite having his last three bouts go to the judge's cards the Californian has received heaps of praise for his efforts inside the cage.

“It’s something that’s in your blood,” he said. “I’ve had almost 45 pro fights in boxing, kickboxing and MMA, and every single fight I’ve had has always been ‘Fight of the Night.’ I have a true passion for fighting and it’s going to be exciting.”
