Today the World Fighting Alliance (WFA) unveiled the remainder of its fight card for the upcoming WFA: King of the Streets national Pay-Per-View event live from the Forum in Los Angeles on July 22nd. Four additional under card bouts were announced today, each featuring names well recognized and respected within the MMA ranks.
This bout pits two of the sports youngest and most over-the-top personalities against one another. After a successful tour of duty building a name for himself in Icon Sport events in Honolulu, the man they call Mayhem brings his one-of-a-kind persona to the WFA to face Lodune Sincaid (Pictures) at King of the Streets. Sincaid, best-known for his role on the first season of Spike TVs The Ultimate Fighter reality series, brings a respectable 9-2-0 record into the ring in a bout that will determine which of these rising stars is most poised to take his game to the next level.
Rob McCullough (Pictures) vs. Harris Sarmiento (Pictures)
The man they call Razor gets a chance at vengeance as these two face each other for the first time since Sarmiento defeated McCullough two years ago. Since that bout, McCulloughs been a flawless 6-0-0, while Sarmientos path has been marked by several defeats. McCulloughs motivation will be for redemption, while Sarmiento knows a victory at WFA: King of the Streets could get his career back on a winning track.
Jorge Oliveira (Pictures) (2-1-0) vs. Marvin Eastman (Pictures) (12-6-0)
This bout features veteran against up and comer as the Chute Academy-groomed Oliveira looks to further establish himself in the sport with a victory over MMA veteran Eastman. On July 22nd, Eastmans sights will be fixed firmly on reclaiming the top-ranked status he once held in the sport, despite the youthful ambitions of Oliveira.
Jose Landi-Jons (Pictures) (21-11-0) vs. TBD
While many North American MMA fans may not be familiar with Landi-Jons, past wins over UFC champion Matt Hughes (Pictures) and Pat Militich should be enough to illustrate the talent and legitimacy of the man many know as Pele. The Brazilian submission specialist has 21 career victories and actually has as many victories coming by way of knockout as he does by submission. He looks to etch his name in the minds of North American MMA fans at WFA: King of the Streets.
These four matchups round out an already unparalleled fight card featuring the long-anticipated return of Bas Rutten (Pictures) as he squares off against Kimo, Rampage Jacksons rebirth in North America taking on Matt Lindland (Pictures), undefeated rising MMA star Lyoto Machida facing Lions Den veteran Vernon Tiger White, former UFC veteran heavyweights Ricco Rodriguez (Pictures) against Ron Waterman (Pictures), and Ivan Salaverry (Pictures) taking on Art Santore (Pictures).
