Manny Reyes Jr. vs. T.J. Brown

Manny is known for his controversial postings on popular MMA websites and has competed in Karate since childhood. His opponent, T.J. Brown fights out of Cobra Kai and trained by Marc Laimon. Brown will look to quiet Manny with some ground and pound, while Manny will try to keep the fight standing.

Angelo Antuna vs. Kevin Ross Grudge match

These men don't like each other. Angelo called out Ross at a recent Muay Thai match and there is some bad blood. Angelo trains with Muay Thai standout, Kit Cope and has wrestled since grade school. He's comfortable both standing and on the ground. Kevin Ross fights out of the Xyience center and has been training like a madman for this fight. This one could be a barnburner!
