In a highly-anticipated rematch, NEF MMA Professional lightweight Kampeon Bruce “Kahanga-Boy” Boyington (10-8) takes on rivalJohn “Primera klase” Sinag (2-7) in a non-title catchweight contest. Raio scored a victory over Boyington by rear-naked choke in their initial meeting in February 2014.

Anuman, Boyington and Raio will look to settle the score on Hunyo 13 sa Lewiston.
