Peter Aerts confirmed today to Dutch site Round1Network that as rumored, he will be fighting Tyrone Spong on June 30 for It’s Showtime. He also mentioned that the event will be at the Brabant Hallen in Den Bosch, Holland. The fight will be the last of his legendary, illustrious career.
Spong is one of the toughest possible match-ups for “The Dutch Lumberjack,” and it’s fitting, as Aerts has fought the best of the best for his whole career, from beginning to end. Before the fight happens, Spong will face off with Melvin Manhoef on January 28. The fight card of the event on June 30 will be announced during It’s Showtime’s show on January 28.
Aerts hasn’t fought in Holland since 2007 when he stopped Bob Sapp. It’s great that he gets to go out for one last time in front of his home country before he calls it a career.

As you all should know by know, I am a huge Kickboxing fan. Well, obviously I’m a huge fan of any sport in which two people hit each other in the face and kick each other in the head. I’m a simple man with simple tastes and I find that Kickboxing and Muay Thai satisfy those simple needs. Read more…
