Los Angeles, SAMA – Ang University of MMA marks its latest milestone on Sa Domingo, Mayo 31, with the tenth installment of its ‘Fight Night’ sunod-sunod nga. Taking place at Club Nokia sa L.A. LIVE (aka “the U of MMA campus”), University of MMA: Fight Night 10 is packed with 15 away, including three title matches to crown new University of MMA champions. Ang mga tiket na karon sa sale sawww.UofMMA.com ug www.axs.com.

 

A new University of MMA’s lightweight champion will be decided between Julio ‘The Gr818er’ Lopez (Kings Combat Sports) ug Antonio Lopez (Gooch Training Academy/Saekson Muay Thai). Julio advanced from the opening round of the University of MMA lightweight championship tournament, sa gihapon undefeated. Antonio was originally scheduled to be in the tournament as well, before injury sidelined him from action. But both men ride four-fight win streaks going into this title match, meaning pride and glory are on the line.

 

Uban sa Elite Training Center’s featherweight star Tommy Aaron vacating his University of MMA title to turn pro, the crown at 145 lbs. once again finds itself without a king. That won’t be for long, Apan, as U of MMA perennial favorite Ryan 'Ang Lion’ Lilley (Bas Rutten ni Elite Training Center) and the fast-rising Albert Veloz (Halwa Combat Academy) vie to become the third-ever University of MMA featherweight champion.

“The University of MMA has definitely grown as a live event series with the expansion of our fan base and the shows getting bigger and better every time. The same can be said for amateur fighters who have grown and matured within our promotion. Guys like Ryan ‘The Lion’ Lilley who will be fighting for us for the eighth time, and Albert Veloz, who is improving right under our eyes. We’re proud to see the development of fighters like Ryan and Albert, who will go on to be great pros,” mikomentaryo U of MMA founder Turi Altavilla.

Two more U of MMA favorites will also square off to become the first-ever University of MMA bantamweight champion, ingon nga Vince ‘The Anomaly’ Cachero ug Demar ‘King’ George revisit each other in a rematch from 2013. The two met originally at Fight Night 3, when both were very young in their MMA careers. More seasoned in experience and sharper in skill, they are very much different fighters.

 

“The six individuals vying for University of MMA titles on this show are people of heart, technical skill, character and integrity. We’ve seen their championship efforts on previous shows and they deserve the recognition these matches offer,” miingon U of MMA matchmaker Jay Tan.
