After BAMMA 12 there doesn't appear to be an obvious headline fight leading into #13, however it's fun to speculate;

Lightweight;
Rob Sinclair vs. Curt Warburton
This is probably the most obvious fight, however Warburton's performance was more solid than spectacular, this would be an OK headliner.

Welterweight/Middleweight;
Jim Wallhead vs. Jack Marshman
Wallhead admitted to signing a four fight exclusive deal with BAMMA, Marshman has headlined for BAMMA more than once, aside from the weight class issue it seems to fit. Once again would be an OK headliner.

Light Heavyweight;
Max Nunes vs. Jason Jones
BAMMA may feel Nunes is the way to go for their next event, Jones has fought and won for BAMMA before and this fight would probably be an exciting stand-up contest.

Outside bets or Main Card fights;
Jack Marshman-Leeroy Barnes (MW)
Xavier Foupa-Pokam-Leeroy Barnes (MW)
Jim Wallhead-Tom Breese (WW)
Curt Warburton-Andrew Winner (LW)
Curt Warburton-Ryan Scope (LW)
Ryan Scope-Steven Ray (LW)

Potential Signings;
Che Mills (WW)
Terry Etim (LW)
Paul Sass (LW)

Jason Jones vs Linton Vassell Main
Sincair vs Warburton Co-Main

Please leave Marshman out of big fights

They need to make Scope vs Breese, Breese is getting up to that headliner status right now and would wreck Scope.

Xavier Foupa-Pokam- Leeroy Barnes is a good main-card scrap.

In unrelated news I'd love to see some of these smaller promotions do vs shows.

If I was the Bamma matchmaker, the main card would look something like...

Rob Sinclair (12-2) vs. Martin Stapleton (12-1) - World Lightweight Title
Curt Warburton (12-3) vs. Ryan Scope (7-0) - British Lightweight Title
Tom Breese (6-0) vs. Bola Omoyele (6-1) - British Welterweight Title
Andre Winner (14-7) vs. Luke Newman (5-1)
Xavier Foupa-Pokam (24-18) vs. Scott Askham (10-0)
Jack Marshman (11-2) vs. Denniston Sutherland (18-9)

Which is why it's stupid for an organisation like BAMMA to have titles in my opinion.

Scenario;
Fighter X signs a 1 fight deal with BAMMA, which let's be honest is the norm for all promotions outside of the UFC and Bellator.

He fights and wins a title in his first fight, then asks BAMMA to double his money if they want him to defend their championship. They can't afford it so he either vacates the title or remains as champ but never actually defends it.

BAMMA's current Featherweight champion is Mark Adams, he won the title at BAMMA 3 in May 2010 but hasn't even defended it once.
