Press Release – New York, NY (December 13, 2012) This weekend GFL and Comcast continue their weekly combat sports series with world class MMA, as Xtreme Fight Events presents Cage Wars XIX a 12-bout pro/am card with hotly contested matchups inside the cage, highlighted by a main event for the XFE Lightweight Championship as reigning champion Ryan Cafara (4-3) takes on Sharif Jones (3-3). Cafara is a strong wrestler with powerful submissions and likes to control his opponent on the ground. Jones is another top shelf grappler and that could come in handy as he will be able to attack Cafara from multiple positions if he ends up on his back. Expect a barnburner.
In the co-main event, for the XFE Welterweight Championship, undefeated Nicholas Willey (3-0) battles Justin Bonitatis (2-1). Willey has dominated his former opponents and shown an ability to dictate the pace of every fight he has ever been in. This bout will be his toughest test to date as Bonitatis comes into the fight with an All-American wrestling pedigree which gives him a decided advantage on controlling where the fight goes. When the dust settles and the smoke clears the winner of this bout will be one of the top 170 lb prospects in the country.
Air times will be on Saturday, December 15th at 9:30pm EST on all TCN coverage areas with replays starting Wednesday, December 19th at 9:00pm. CSN Philly will air the event on Sunday, December 16th at 2:00pm and replay on Saturday, December 22nd at 7:00pm. Comcast subscribers in other major markets including; CSN Washington, CSN Bay Area, CSN Chicago, CSN New England, CSN Northwest and CSN Houston will also have access to Cage Wars XIX in the coming weeks.
