Michigan MMA Divides in Half - East vs. West Collision at Emerald Theater
May 27, 2011
(PRESS RELEASE) -- Saturday, June 4, at the Emerald Theater in Mt
Clemens, MMA fans better get ready for some beat downs, as Donofrio
Entertainment, in association with Triple X Cagefighting, proudly
present EXTREME CAGEFIGHT WAR, featuring the best full-contact cage
fighters from Eastern Michigan and the baddest fighters from
Western Michigan colliding in 15 action-packed showdowns.
Coming off their wildly successful first-of-its-kind event at the Dow Events Center in Saginaw on May 21, the power pairing of Michigan's two top MMA promoters, Joseph Donofrio and Joe Battaglia, is back with another amazing show.
Representing some of the East Side team are Gorden Shell's Eastside
4 Aces, Harley "The Swede" Wallen's Team Undisputed, Mike Krol's
Team Shoot, Steve Lowe's Absolute Combat Club and former KOTC Champ
Brad Burrick's Team.
On the West Side are Mash GYM, Fight Club Proving Ground, and The System Ultimate Judo and Karate and more.
The night's main event will feature a rematch of an unforgettable war, as current TXC Bantamweight (135 lbs.) champion Andrew Ventimaglia of Team Shoot will face Fight Clubs/System's Jake Lamb in a rematch of their three-round clash a year ago that left fans' mouths hanging open with its savage intensity.
"This show is going to settle a lot of scores between these East and West camps," said event co-promoter Joseph Donofrio. "Joe Battaglia has put together one cross-state grudge match after another. These guys aren't matched up just because they're the same weight. They're here because they want to see what team really is the best in this state!"
Co-promoter Joe Battaglia says EXTREME CAGEFIGHT WAR at the Emerald will have all the classy trademarks the two promotions have become known for. "There will be 15 unforgettable wars that night."
