Kickboxing at Melbourne Auditorium on October 24th, 2020.
UMMAF (United Mixed Martial Arts Federation), USFL (United States Fight League) and Kick International bring World competition in MMA, Kickboxing and Junior Pankration to Melbourne Auditorium on October 24th, 2020.
The day event will open its doors at 1 o'clock. The competition will feature USFL SOUTH with youth coming from all four regions of the United States Fight League. This is MMA for those under 18, no shots to the head. Fighters will be defending their spots to compete and qualify for the World Championships. Last year Team USA took 31 athletes to Rome and swept "the Worlds" for the United States.
The star studded event finale of the afternoon competition will feature Puerto Rican born, World Boxing Council Champion (WBC), Hector Camacho Junior in an exhibition match.
General admission is $15.00 for the day event and $25 for the night time event.
Return to the auditorium at 7:00 p.m. for the evening face off between Puerto Rico and the United States as a qualifier for the US Adult Team. This main event will feature Jonathan Rodriguez of Puerto Rico, trained by David DiQuollo, former US kickboxing champion and owner of Unlimited Kickboxing gym on Merritt Island. Jonathan is looking to unseat Anthony Saeger out of ATT Valdosta, who previously beat the only Puerto Rican representative on the US Team who had gone to "the Worlds" last year in Bahrain and finished in the quarterfinals. Jonathan's hopes are for a victory for both himself and the Island, to regain their presence on the US Team.
The Juniors will be having their own US versus Puerto Rico on the card. The United States Rhonin "Rhoninja" Swenson will be facing off against Eliel "The Firecracker" Correa.
Unlimited kickboxing's stable will have their hands full as David DiQuollo Jr. is taking on a senior and much more experienced fighter Ken Sabino from Miami. Additional Unlimited match ups will include local favorite Tommy Bamberger taking on a very experienced Jayson Scott from Nebraska who touts an 11-2 MMA record. There has been a West Coast challenge by Taylor Halstead and Mo Musharaf of Fight Team LLC taken up by East Coast's Unlimited Kickboxing's, Dylan Munro and Erik May.
United States Heavyweight Mervin Miller representing Hullet's, "House of Pain", out of Columbia Missouri will be in the ring to compete against Carlos Santamaria of Tampa. Also, Midwest will be represented by Logan Snell in a K-1 match against Charles White of the Fight Team LLC. Chris Brandt, Kalik Battle and Mason Martinez representing Georgia will be taking on the Florida competition in Olu Brinson, Rob Forest and Chris Ortiz.
The evening's entertainment starts at 7:00 p.m. and ends at 11:00 p.m. Color commentator will be Lance Primeaux and will be joined in the broadcast booth by boxings World Champion Hector Machito Camacho Jr.
The evening televised event also will be on FloCombat that has a potential to reach 16 million homes. Those companies in attendance and sponsors would be recognized ringside and announced to the televised audience. UMMAF is proud to be a part of the XFN network and to celebrate being a part of 30 of their televised shows.
From 6 to 7 PM on Saturday, October 24th, at the Melbourne Civic Auditorium, there will be a networking event hosted by local and statewide contractors and subcontractors. East Coast Metal Structures has spearheaded this attempt and invited several other subcontractors such as Speedy Concrete, Coastal Mechanical, USA Equipment, Sunray Notice, Sky Limit Crane, Caribbean Steel Riggers, Boom Sportswear and Supplements, along with General Contractor's T&G Constructors, W-J Construction, Lego Builders, MH Williams and Certified General Contractors, to name a few. Those paying for attending the networking event are free to stick around for the evening excitement. During a time when none of the construction social networking organizations are doing anything, East Coast Metal Structures is proud to have stepped in to fill a void and provide this opportunity along with the assistance of Ves Marinova of Intelligent Construction Connect to help put this networking event together.
Temperatures will be taken at the door; covid waiver and contact information will be required. Tables and Golden Ringside tickets will have food and beverage delivered to their seat. Evening tickets can be purchased on Eventbrite. Due to Covid restrictions seating has been limited, and the evening event is expected to be a sellout.
