“Sugar” Shane Mosley, World Boxing Champion, stated, “It’s very exciting that the Mosley family, along with Swarm Entertainment, will be the first promotional company to present MMA in conjunction with The Big Game. Putting together an event where millions of people can enjoy combat fighting at its best brings me great joy. I love boxing, and MMA is very similar, as both are combat sports and require a strategy of defense and offense. When it comes down to it, it’s all about the spirit of the warrior.”
The main event features the return of UFC veteran and champion of The Ultimate Fighter Season 2 Joe Stevenson in a battle with fellow UFC vet Dominique Robinson. Stevenson has chosen to come out of semi-retirement for the first ever Mosley Showdown Lightweight Championship bout saying it was the right timing and he is ready for “round 2” of his career. Robinson, fueled by his love of the sport that has been his everything, is eager to add a vet like Stevenson to his list of victims.
Other stars on the fight card include MMA Legend and The Ultimate Fighter Season 4 contestant Shonie Carter as he locks horns with a true modern-day gladiator, Shannon Ritch. The future faces of women’s MMA, Brenda Gonzales and Lacey Schuckman, will battle each other looking to climb their way to the top of the fight world. Two big show fighters in Lance “The Reaper” Friedenstein and Ashley Gooch will go toe-to-toe and Nick “Nyquil” Rhoads will tangle with Thomas Schulte. Also populating the card for this exciting event will be several other notable fights, including scraps between Steve Hanna and Richard Solis, James Chaney and Jimmy Scully, Evan DeLong and Kamuella Kirk, and Daniel James and Jason Walraven.
Mosley Showdown is a boxing and MMA event promotion company founded by World Boxing Champion “Sugar” Shane Mosley. Quality events and explosive fights are held throughout the United States and feature some of the very best up and coming boxing and MMA athletes from around the country.
