 Andrew Buckland is Battlefield Fight League's new pro middleweight
champion.
 Last Saturday night in Vernon, in an MMA card carried live on The Fight
Network, the Comox Valley Boxing Club coach dominated Matt Baker of Kamloops to
win the crown.
 Early in the first round Buckland landed a left roundhouse kick to Baker's
head, but Baker pushed forward to take Buckland down and tried for a guillotine.
He spent some time trying, but Buckland has been in this position many times and
fought his way out.
 Now with top position, Buckland rained down damage with some ground and
pound. Oddly enough the ref stood the fighters up and Baker came in swinging
wildly. Buckland took Baker to the ground and mounted him, landing some big
blows to finish the round.
 The second round was much like the first as Baker came out swinging wildly. 
Buckland, with better control, landed some leg kicks and a few combinations that
appeared to break Baker's nose.
 Buckland landed a few knees from the clinch and took  Baker back to the
ground where he inflicted more damage with punches and elbows. "This round was
dominated by Buckland," said CVBC owner Jonny Mac.
 Going into the third round Buckland was landing unchecked leg kicks and
another round house kick to Baker's head. Baker attempted a failed spinning back
fist and ended up being taken down to his back again.
 Baker tried for an armbar, but again Buckland's experience got him out. Baker
scambled but there was nowhere to go. Buckland sank in an arm in guillotine
which forced Baker to tap.
 "Buckland's hand was raised to become the first pro middleweight champion for
the Battlefield organization," Mac said. "Andrew just joined us this year down
at the boxing club and teaches every Tuesday and Thursday night at 6 p.m.
 "You don't need any experience to learn what he has to offer – all you need
is a great attitude. For more info on our schedule you can find us at www.cvboxingclub.com or Comox Valley Boxing Club
on Facebook. You can also follow us at cvboxingclub on Twitter," Mac noted.
