The MMA Digest » Kampmann Hoping to Return in Early 2008
Martin Kampmann was looking to move up the ladder at middleweight this June when he was scheduled to take on Rich Franklin in Ireland. However, those plans were derailed when Kampmann sustained a knee injury in training. The recovery process is moving slowly but surely. “The injury is getting better”, comments Kampmann. “But slowly and still a long way to go.” The Danish fighter, fighting out of Las Vegas, has begun dabbling in some striking while waiting to gain greater mobility in his kneee. “I’ve started boxing again, but still no grappling or wrestling yet”, explains Kampmann. “Don’t have full range of motion in the knee and still lacking muscle, but working on it in rehab.”
Kampmann had been on a hot streak in the UFC as he won 3 bouts in a span of 6 and a half months–defeating Crafton Wallace, Thales Leites and Drew McFedries. Sitting on the sidelines hasn’t been easy for the 25 year old fighter, and he is aiming to get back into the swing of things early next year. “I hope I can return to fighting in the beginning of the new year”, says Kampmann. “I miss it a lot and can’t wait.”
