Post subject:  TUF 8 Winner Efrain Escudero Booked for BAMMA 7

The Ultimate Fighter 8 winner Efrain Escudero will head across the pond on Sept. 10 to fight Tim Radcliffe at BAMMA 7 at the National Indoor Arena in Birmingham, the promotion announced Monday, along with lightweight title bout Rob Sinclair vs. Leonardo Santos and welterweight matchup Matt Ewin vs. Valentino Petrescu.

BAMMA 7 is the follow-up to the May 21 event at the Wembley Arena, which featured Frank Trigg, Ivan Salaverry and what became the retirement fight for Murilo "Ninja" Rua.

Last September, Escudero (6-3) became the second The Ultimate Fighter winner to be handed his release (Travis Lutter was first) after a loss to Charles Oliveira at UFC Fight Night 22. The 25-year-old lightweight won three straight following his release before suffering a loss last month against Fabricio Camoes at Tachi Palace Fights 9. Radcliffe (11-4) won both his fights this year against Michael Pastou and Alexandre Izidro and holds six submission victories.

Sinclair (9-2) will be making his second defense of his BAMMA lightweight strap when he faces the Sengoku veteran Santos (9-3). In March, Sinclair took a fight with another British promotion, OMMAC, and scored a TKO over Martin Begley. With the crumbling of the Sengoku promotion, Santos debuted for BAMMA in May and defeated Jason Ball via unanimous decision.

Ewin (22-9-1), who missed 2009 and 2010 entirely, defeated Salaverry via unanimous decision at the last BAMMA event. Petrescu (11-2) also won at BAMMA 6, defeating Joao Paulo de Souza via majority decision.
