“I’m going to take care of everybody”, said Roanoke fighter, Joel Wyatt (age 20) to his wife, trainer, and coach, as he lay, with his newly acquired light heavyweight belt, on the floor of the dressing room area, in the bowels of the Roanoke Civic Center. Wyatt TKO’ed previously undefeated light heavyweight champion, 205-pound U.S. Marine, Michael Smith in round 3 to take the light heavyweight championship. Wyatt will turn professional after this fight, trying to make it in the newly lucrative world of mixed martial arts fighting, hoping to make a better life for his wife and daughter.
