(PRESS RELEASE) -- With all of the hype surrounding the V3Fights’ main event on August 2 in Nashville, TN, remember that there will also be a title on the line when champion, Justin Hartley, fights in his hometown to take on Irvin Jones.
But Hartley didn’t go out and pursue MMA to become a fighter, but to stay in shape and find something to do to occupy his time so he wouldn’t be out in the streets getting in trouble since he had a kid and needed to straighten up. Now he is the top welterweight fighter in the division and has a target on his back with everyone gunning for the champ, and he is okay with that.
“It feels really good to be the champ. I’ve worked really hard in the gym to get where I am and I don’t plan on letting somebody take that from me. And it feels great putting my belt on the line in front of my hometown” states Hartley.
One of those fighters gunning for Hartley’s title is Irvin Jones. Jones definitely has a size advantage in this fight, however Hartley doesn’t seem to be too worried about it.
“I’m good everywhere, so I can take the fight wherever it needs to go, but I’d rather stand and bang. Irvin is a big, strong guy, but not technical enough to hang with me and I feel that the fight will end by me knocking him out or submitting him” states Hartley.
Hartley also wanted to leave this last message for his opponent…. “Bring a pillow and blanket because you are going night night.”
