“This is shaping up to be our most stellar fight card, from top to bottom, to date. With the matchup between Ricky Palacios and Chris Avila, we are destined for another memorable night of electrifying action in La Jaula,” Combate Americas CEO Campbell McLaren деді.

Fresh off his triumphant victory over another former UFC star Roman “El Gallito” Salazar at Combate 13 бойынша Сәуір 20, the hard-hitting 30-year-old Palacios of Mission, Техас, also an unbeaten professional boxer, looks to extend his five-fight winning streak.

Rounding out the newest additions to “Combate Clásico” is 24-year-old Joey “El Cazador” Ruquet (4-1), coming off consecutive wins in La Jaula and ready to make a run at the top of the bantamweight division by tangling with Florida’s own Vinney “The Instigator” Pantaleon (1-1).

Tickets for “Combate Clásico” are on sale online at Ticketon.com. Additional bouts will be announced in the coming days.

The “Combate Clásico” live MMA event will join a nearly week-long extravaganza that begins with a match between marquee soccer clubs Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain at Hard Rock Stadium on Шілде 26 as well as concerts, parties and other interactive events prior to El Clásico Miami on Шілде 29.
