Originally from Delaware, United States, ‘Bazooka’ Joe Stripling is known as Lion Fight’s version of Roy’ Big Country’ Nelson. “A giant personality, an enormous physical presence, and a devastating fighter”, as quoted by Lion Fight CEO Scott Kent.
After news broke out of Stripling signing for Lion Fight Promotions, the UK’s heavyweight Lyndon Knowles made that a statement he’d love to fight the former MMA fighter.
“I would love the opportunity to take this fight”, Lyndon responded to the news of Joe’s Lion Fight deal.
In an exclusive talk with the Fight Record team, Lyndon added, “There is another fight I would love, that’s against Steve Banks for the WBC Muaythai World title.”
He continued, “I am WBC World #2 and he [Steve Banks] is #2, what better way to contest for the World title!”
