Slice made his sanctioned MMA debut against former world champion boxer Ray Mercer at Cage Fury Fighting Championships 5, in Atlantic City, New Jersey on June 23, 2007. The match was scheduled as a three-round exhibition utilizing all professional rules of mixed martial arts combat. Slice defeated Mercer with a guillotine choke at 1:12 into the first round.
That fight garnered massive traffic for the Gambling911.com website.
In a post-fight interview, Slice stated that he would like to fight David "Tank" Abbott. Abbott, who was a spectator, stood up from his seat and accepted the call out. One of the matchmakers for CFFC asked Slice for his assurance so that an October 12th bout at Cage Fury Fighting Championships 6 between Slice and "Tank" Abbott can be organized. Slice stated in his pre-fight interview with CFFC that he is done with backyard bare-knuckle boxing.
At press time, Bookmaker.com still listed the fight date as September 28, but it has been changed to October 12
A move to October 12 would be the third rescheduling of this much anticipated bout.
