Press Release – Friday, June 1, 2012 7:30pm ET featuring Xtreme Fight Events Cage Wars 15 at Harrah’s Casino in Chester Pennsylvania. “Cage Wars” has quickly solidified itself in Pennsylvania as a top-tier MMA event, and the fighters on June 1 will be ready to throw down in the cage. In the main event, Dan Cion (3-1) battles Casey Milliken (3-3) for the vacant Cage Wars Lightweight Title. Cion is a CFFC vet and battle-tested as he has fought a top caliber of East Coast MMAers. Traveling from New York, Cion is looking to grind Milliken down and break his will during the fight. Milliken is also a CFFC vet and has traveled as far as Arizona to ply his trade. Milliken is coming off a spectacular win at “Cage Wars 13″ and looks to build on that success as he will look to try and submit Cion if it goes to the mat. In the co-main event, Ryan Cafaro (3-3) defends his Cage Wars title as he takes on Matthew Ibbotson (3-4). Cafaro is coming off a hard earned decision victory that where he won the title back in March. Cafaro likes to go to the ground and exhibits a high risk-high reward fighting style that is always a crowd pleaser. For the challenger Ibbotson, he is riding a 2-fight win streak and looks to make the most of his opportunity by winning his first title. Ibbotson also is strong on the ground so this could be a matchup of grapplers or the ground fighting could be nullified and it could be a slugfest. The third title fight of the evening will be for the Flyweight Championship as former challenger Andrew Aguilar (4-2) battles Brian Gil (3-1) for the vacant 125 lb title. Aguilar likes to break his opponents will inside the cage and win by decision while Gil has wins by KO and submission. This clash of styles always makes for interesting fights and the fact that this is for a Flyweight Championship means this should be fight of the night as that division has the wildest fights.
– Friday, June 1, 2012 8:00pm ET featuring Combat at the Capitale, at the Capitale, New York, NY. Lou Neglia and Ray Longo present World Championship Kickboxing with presenting 12-bout Muay Thai card is anchored by several title fights that are sure to make new stars in the sport and cement legacies. In the main event, Brandon Mickens will take on Julio Arce for the World Championship. Other matches will include: Nicko Tsigaras vs Felipe Carlos, Laurel Holloway vs Andrea Deangelo and Alex Melts vs Stephen Regman plus more.
– Saturday, June 2, 2012 9:00pm ET featuring North American Allied Fight Series (NAAFS) Fight Night in the Flats VIII at the Jacobs Pavilion in Nautica in Cleveland, Ohio. In the main event, Kyle Baker (11-3) fights Chris Lozano (9-3) for Baker’s NAAFS Pro Series Welterweight Championship. For Baker, this is his first title defense and it comes against his toughest opponent to date as Lozano is a Bellator veteran and also a former NAAFS Champion. Baker holds a win over UFC vet Drew Fickett and a win over Lozano would add to his credentials even more and make people around the country take notice of the budding star. Lozano is looking to regroup back in his old stomping grounds and a victory over Baker would get him moving in the right direction and would also see him reclaim NAAFS gold. Lozano packs a heavy punch and will be looking to land it with bad intentions so this main event should be action packed from the get go. In the co-main event, Frank Caraballo (9-4) defends his NAAFS Pro Series Featherweight Championship against Antonio Castillo Jr. (4-3). Caraballo is on a 4-fight win streak including the last two with Bellator and looks to keep his momentum going as he defends his belt against a gritty challenger in Castillo Jr. Caraballo is a fan favorite because of his aggressive fighting style which usually ends with him winning by knockout or submission. Fans will be in for a treat as the challenger Castillo Jr. loves to grind out his opponents and take their will to fight away, so this bout will be a contrast in styles which means anything is possible. This bout will be a barnburner as the 145 lb weight division is one of the most exciting in all of MMA and if Castillo Jr. can pull off the upset not only will he be the new champion, but he will turn a lot of heads in the MMA industry. But Caraballo will do his best to shut down Castillo Jr. right from the beginning.
