Two Heavyweights Exchange Huge Blows At Centre Ice in Spirited Tilt

This is an old-fashioned hockey fight! Two heavyweights from the ECHL sqaured off at center ice tonight, and they didn't disappoint, going punch for punch before finally being separated.

Spencer Kennedy of the Atlanta Gladiators, who's playing in just his third game with the team after recently signing a contract with them, dropped the gloves with Matthew Bazarin of the Orlando Solar Bears. Kennedy, in the white and blue, is six-foot-six, and weighs 215 lbs. Bazarin is six-foot-five and goes 232. The two went essentially blow for blow until the officials decided to step in as they were clearly getting tired.

Kennedy, 23, has split his time between the ECHL and SPHL since going pro in 2022. Bazarin, also 23, spent the last four seasons in the FPHL until signing with Orlando for this year.
