The Cebuanos brace themselves for swashbuckling mixed martial arts and kickboxing fights as the fourth installment of Yaw-Yan ArDigma Martial Arts Federation’s Ground & Pound billed as “Shockwave” unfolds today at 7:00 in the evening at the Cebu Coliseum.
“Just like in my previous fights, I’ll try to stop him in the first round,” Alcer “D Master of Disaster” Lozada warned his Cebuano opponent Ryan “The Real Deal” Solana.
Lozada, the undefeated fighter from Butuan City’s Mindanao Top Team, will go up against Solana of Lapu-Lapu City’s Yaw-Yan Musang in the main event of the Mixed Martial Arts action scheduled for three rounds under the 70-kilogram division.
“That’s what he thinks. I’m fighting here in my territory and I have no other thing in my mind than winning,” replied Solana to the undermining statement of Lozada.
Another exciting Cebuano fighter to watch out for is Engie “The Destroyer” Piloto, the pride of Yaw-Yan ArDigma Cebu, who will square off against Leo “Thunder” Filisan of CDO’s Mindanao Unified Martial Arts.
In the other MMA showdown, Maxlito “Hyper Eagle” Yong of Yaw-Yan Musang tangles with Eugene “The Brawler” Yunque of Bacolod Fight Club, Cesar “Alamid” Yap tackles Erwin “The Bomber Man” Neri of CDO’s FKR Philippines, and Elmer “D Hammer” Jandayan of Bohol Sagravate Pit Fighting Society mixes it up with Butuan’s Alan “D Game Plan” Atup.
