PXC 47 also features the return of Darren “Bone Crusher” Uyenoyama and Cortney “Cast Iron” Casey. Uyenoyama faces Kentaro Watanabe of Japan in a flyweight battle. Uyenoyama is a UFC veteran and this will be his second fight under the PXC banner.
Cortney Casey looks to continue her dominance of the female straw weight division when she takes on unbeaten Helen “Hellraiser” Harper of England. Harper has a great deal of respect for her opponent but is ready to secure her place in the PXC roster.
“I have a huge amount of respect for Cortney and I’m very much looking forward to sharing the cage with her. As the old adage goes, fight, until your idols become your rivals“, Harper explained.
Casey, 2-0 in the PXC, is ready for the challenge. “I don’t care who I’m fighting, it’s just someone that’s in between me and the PXC title.”
