Portugal’s got MMA, too – and the good stuff, at that. On the coming 13th of November, the Porto region will be treated to the maiden installment of Cage Fighters, at the Matosinhos Centro de Congressos e Desportes arena.
Six fights will feature on the card, with a marquee bout between two-time UFC fighter Ronys Torres and Wanderson Messias. Torres is riding an eight-fight win streak, six of which came by way of first-round knockout or tapout. Should he keep up his series of wins, Torres may soon be returning to MMA’s most eminent cage.
The card also features Brazilians Giovanni Diniz and Diego Marlon.
