Corbin Howard is set to make his professional MMA debut on Saturday at Shamrock FC 301. The 20-year-old will fight Ray Allard (0-2). Howard won’t overlook Allard for his record.
“[Allard] has a lot more experience fighting than me,” Howard told MMASucka. “He has some pretty good wins as an amateur.”
However, he feels ready to tackle the professional ranks. Howard, a 6-0 amateur, said he comes from a background of point-karate and had an athletic upbringing similar to that of two-time UFC welterweight title challenger Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson.
