Fight Card subject to change*


The main course of the night will be the fight debut in Mexico of former KOTC Champion, UFC, and PRIDE Bushido extraordinaire Chris "The Westside Strangler" Brennan.

The line-up for this Sunday's Reto Maximo card has undergone a few changes due to injuries –
Joey Alvarado, who was scheduled to face Chris Brennan in the MMA main event, broke his foot this past Friday at "King Of The Cage" and had to withdraw - stepping up to take his place is one of the fight game's most experienced fighters and past rival Shannon "The Cannon" Ritch (PRIDE, Pancrase, and KOTC veteran), providing for a rematch "The Cannon" had been anxiously awaiting for in the last couple years.

Ritch states that in their first outing he took the fight on short notice and thus the quick loss via arm bar. Though not originally scheduled to fight Chris this weekend Shannon claims to be in top form now and promises things will be different this time out. Chris Brennan gracefully accepted the challenge and is set to give the fans a top showing of his world class fight skills.

Mexico's Kick Boxing National Lightweight champion Jose Guardado, in the co-main event bout of the night, will not face Rajesh Narine as originally scheduled. Narine suffered a serious injury to his knee while training last Thursday and his doctor did not give clearance for him to fight. Mr. Danny Rodarte, president of the IKBA, authorized the classified fighter out of Irapuato, Guanajuato Arturo "El Frances" Dumaine to replace Narine, disputing against Guardado the vacant IKBA Jr. Welterweight Kick Boxing World Championship Title.


A couple Muay Thai Mexican National titles are on the line:

Omar Jimenez, out of Lozano's Vale Todo in Tijuana and undefeated in both MMA and Muay Thai, agreed to face Erik Osorio once again after putting him out via TKO last September in a non title match. Osorio, out of famed Pedro Fernandez Pit Bull Gym also in Tijuana, currently holds the Light Heavyweight championship belt and asked Jimenez to a rematch putting his title on the line this time around.

Also out of the Pit Bull Gym in Tijuana, Gabriel Medina faces Ensenada's warrior Luis Bio, out of Guardado's Gym. This should prove to be one of the most exciting bouts of the night as by the time they step in the ring in RM-VII they will be facing each other for the third time. In a non title bout Bio took the close decision in their first outing last year and they are signed to a rematch coming early in November. This last episode in their trilogy of encounters should settle matters once and for all between these two gladiators with the winner coming out of the ring holding the Muay Thai National Middleweight title belt to his waist.


2 bouts are also booked showcasing Mexico's world class talent in Boxing:

Out of reigning WBA Junior Middleweight Champion Alex Terra Garcia's camp
in Tijuana a couple young guns in Pavel Miranda, 8 - 1 (7KO) and Juan Carlos Burgos, 6 - 0 (5KO) are set to take action early in the card. Their opponents Humberto "Apache" Escobar, 4 - 2 (2KO) and Refugio "Pichon" Contreras,
6 - 5 (4KO) respectively come from reputable stable Melo Boxing Team in Cd. Obregon, Sonora to make things even. All four rising fighters are exited at the opportunity to exhibit their skills to cross fans of the fight game.
