Harris vs Davis, Schuckman vs Reicher Targeted For June 8Two female atomweight fights have been announced for the Sparta Combat League: “Thunderdome 2” event on June 8th in Denver, Colorado. In one, prospect Darla “Train Wreck” Harris looks to get back on the winning track when she battles Invicta FC competitor Amy “Lil’ Dynamite” Davis.

Another Invicta FC veteran, Lacey “The Ladie” Schuckman, will also be in action on the June 8th card. Schuckman faces off against New Jersey native Jody Lynn Reicher, who makes her pro debut. The event is also expected to feature three amateur women’s bouts, including a flyweight title fight.

Harris (3-2-0) cracked the top ten at 105 pounds this past year after winning three straight fights. The 22-year-old then took a step up in competition in October and suffered her first pro loss against Diana “Dynamite” Rael on the inaugural Made For War card. Not to be deterred, Harris took on another tough opponent, Schuckman, at SCL: “Thunderdome 1” in February. The fighters battled for three rounds and Schuckman ultimately prevailed via Unanimous Decision. Harris now looks to get back into atomweight contention by scoring her biggest win to date in June.

Davis (3-4-0, 1 NC) also found herself in the atomweight top ten after picking up back-to-back stoppage wins over Meghan Wright and Invicta FC rising star Nicdali “The Night Queen” Rivera-Calanoc. However, like Harris, Davis is also looking to rebound after suffering two first-round submission losses against formidable opponents. In her most recent fight at Invicta FC 3, Davis succumbed to a guillotine choke in just 48 seconds at the hands of Stephanie “Macaquinha” Frausto. The talented striker will now compete in Colorado for the first time in close to three years.

 

Schuckman (8-6-0) has put on excellent performances in both of her fights since dropping down to the atomweight division this past year. After suffering a razor-thin Split Decision loss to current Invicta FC Atomweight Champion Michelle “The Karate Hottie” Waterson in October, Schuckman rebounded with a crucial victory over Harris in February. She now makes her return to Sparta Combat League and will enter as a significant favourite against Reicher (2-7-0 amateur), who is set to make her pro debut on the card. Reicher most recently competed in March at the Fighters Source USA: “Kings of New York” event in New York City. Both of her career victories have come via guillotine choke.

Sparta Combat League: “Thunderdome 2” takes place on June 8th at City Hall in Denver, Colorado.
