Final Battle for the Belt Set for February 26 Tuff-N-Uff Show
14 Bout Fight Card Set with Headline Fights by Larry Mir and Championship Qualifiers
Two undefeated mixed martial arts fighters put their future fighting careers on the line on Friday, February 26 in a final battle for the 135 pound Tuff-N-Uff belt.
Chris Holdsworth of Cobra Kai Jiu-Jitsu with a 4-0 record will take on Gor Mnatsakanyan of Filipino MMA with a 5-0 record for the championship title of the Tuff-N-Uff 135 pound weight class.
“This will be a battle to the end,” said Barry Meyer, President of Tuff-N-Uff. “Both of these fighters are very aggressive and fight to win. This will definitely be one of the Tuff-N-Uff fights not to miss.”
The fight card is headlined by Larry Mir, cousin of ultimate fighter Frank Mir, and four fighters seeking the 145 pound Tuff-N-Uff title.
Leading to the 145 pound title semifinals on March 26, Roman Isbell of Striking Unlimited will take on Vince Norcia of Suffer Fight Team. In the other tournament bout, Jace Crawford of Team Warrior goes up against Andrew Alirezi of Top Notch MMA.
“The 145 pound weight class is very competitive and the top amateur MMA fighters in the nation are featured in our tournament,” Meyer said. “It should make a great pair of fights leading to the crowning of the champion at our April 23 show.”
Local favorite Christy Tada of Culture of Intensity highlights a strong woman’s bout against Kristen Mason of PKG. Tada is a scrappy Hawaiian fighter sure to please the hometown mainland crowd. Meanwhile Mason is sure to put up a tough challenge to Tada as she looks for her first win.
