A large part of success in mixed martial arts is a fighter’s ability to show their demons the door and starting over with a new mentality mindset that enables them to be positive and present even when the rigors of life try their hardest to pull them back down in the other direction. In today’s episode of Across The Pond, you will meet a searcher of silver linings as he treks towards the mountain of professionalism in Fury Fighting Championship in the wake of an everchanging Amateur rotation at Bantamweight. An Amateur mixed martial artist since July 2022 and representing Combat City Catch Wrestling, Emmitt Epperson holds a 4-1 record in five bouts consisting of two knockouts, one submission and one decision. Epperson has spent his whole Amateur career with Fury Fighting Championship and is 4-1 under their banner with three finishes over the course of five appearances as an Amateur MMA fighter to show for it under his belt. He has spent his entire Amateur journey in the United States in his home state of Texas. His only decision win has resulted in a unanimous verdict. All three of his finishes during his career inside the Amateur ranks have been inside of two rounds.
In his Amateur MMA debut at Fury FC Amateur Series 39, he defeated Noah Nwadei via unanimous decision to score his lone decision victory as an Amateur. Epperson defeated Chance Lewelling at Fury FC Amateur Series 50 via TKO in the second round. Then at Fury FC Challenger Series 5, he submitted Elisha Wilson via rear-naked choke in round one to notch his first submission win as an Amateur.
at Fury FC 102, Epperson defeated Caden Adkison via technical knockout in the first round. The win earned Epperson the second knockout victory of his Amateur career along with his third finish under the Fury Fighting Championship banner. He also picked up his fourth overall victory as an Amateur mixed martial artist in the process. Epperson is a prime example of a prospect who exercises free expression in order to manifest the objects that he covets at close distances as he empties out the jar of desired choice and unravels destiny’s dream chain link by coiled link!
