Former Battlefield Fight League amateur champion Gary Mangat will return to the BFL cage for the first time since August 2014, as he takes on Damen Wood at BFL 37.

This fight will be contested at a catchweight of 128-pounds.

Former champ Gary Mangat added to BFL 37 fight card

Mangat (7-1) started out his pro career on a four-fight winning streak, but was halted for a second, with a third round TKO loss to Josh Gow at BFL 25. Since that set-back “Saint Lion” has won three-in-a-row, with all three finishes via rear-naked choke submission. Most recently the Tristar fighter defeated Hector Lopez at SFL 40: America 4 in April.

Wood (5-4) trains out of Sports Lab in Portland, Oregon and will be making his BFL debut in this outing. “The Demon” has yet to go to the judges scorecards whether he wins or loses. The American has been a pro fighter since 2007, but only has nine fights under his belt. In his last outing, Wood lost via first round knockout against Luis Gonzalez at Tachi Palace Fighting 18 in February 2014.

BFL 37 goes down on July 25 and features a middleweight title fight in the main event, as champion Ryan Janes takes on Brendan Kornberger. The card will air live on The Fight Network.
