Earlier this year some of you might have heard about a potential MMA fight between Sorel Mizzi and Luke Schwartz. Well, Schwartz ended up backing down from the challenge, claiming that he didn't have the time and effort to make the fight happen.

What happened to Luke Schwartz having the fight?Not like him to change his mind on things.Probably not the same interest now people won't get the chance to see Schwartz get his butt kicked.

really... why bother paying 20-80 dollaros for seeing a fight between two dudes who have on idea how to fight... better visit a local pub, find a dude who want to drink but has no money- offer to buy him a drink if he climbs on a stool and calls all the customers of this fckin joint motherfcukers and morons... well what do you know- you have a fight in front of your eyes... just don't forget to buy the dued his beer after the fight... that is he still is in condition to drink it...

The local pub is for recreational activities only not martial arts. I don't bring beer to a dojo either...

Surely they wouldn't be charging fans to watch this fight?I expect it would be more of a sparring session though some pro poker players have plenty of free time so some stay very fit and I am sure it is a good idea for a poker player knowing how to defend themselves.
Would be a lot better if it was known characters like Phil Hellmuth. Or a good fighter facing a jerk like Shawn Sheikhan so everyone would tune in to watch. In the fight business you have to be a character for people to be interested. Poker player or not
Good idea though Well, people hitting eachother in the face is always a good idea isn't it?

Its all bread and circuses, while the system around you collapses with each day, all the establishment can do while they are taking the system apart, is to divert attention of the common people, to this pointless mindless games, feeding the frenzy of tribal culture, while they are setting them to pull the rug from under them, as much as i like handball, basketball, i know its just a distraction from real things that matter in the system and your life. And to be honest to the bone, with each passing day living among people, the idea to isolate my self from the insanity grows larger, a cabin in the woods next to a river would be ideal

These poker players are up for anything, fair play to them. I would really have liked to see Luke Schwartz in the ring. His trash talk would have made Tyson Fury look all shy and retiring!!

Interesting news however an original heads up battle would be as interesting as this. But they now if they like to fight then go and GL at the ring both two!
