According to thefightnetwork.com:

CAGE RAGE 20 “BORN 2 FIGHT” PLAY-BY-PLAY

By Jim Burman and Stash Capar

Wembley Arena
London, England

Francis Heagney vs Lee Doski

R1: Heagney makes it clear from the start that he wants to grapple. He takes Doski down and tries to work from within his guard. The pair are stood up momentarily before Heagney takes Doski down again, eating a knee in the process. On their third rise to their feet, Heagney catches Doski in a guillotine, but isn’t able to capitalize before the end of the round.

R2: Doski opens the round with some loose striking, but Heagney rushes and ties him up. Doski reverses the takedown attempt, and proceeds to best Heagney on the ground with positional dominance. Heagney manages to initiate the scramble during which he catches hold of a Kimura and taps out Doski for the win.

Heagney wins at 2:50 of R2

Fair enough. Must have had wires crossed.

I trained once or twice with Francis before the Rings fight in Ireland against Greg and I thought he was really really really good. So the idea of him fighting at 70/71 or something against Greg, I felt he would have to win. But he didn't. Maybe the weight loss screwed him up but it's good to hear he's back to winning.

It was just Greg's night that night was all that happened, don't forget Greg is the top Lightweight in the country! Although he did bust up his knee finishing that triangle!

Wow - great achievment, was only a matter of time before irish fighters started making waves on the international circuit.

Congratulations.

Just to clarify, I actually didn't know anything about Greg then.
