ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. – Following an incredible sold-out event in July at the same venue, Cage Fury Fighting Championships is thrilled to announce the promotion’s return to Mississippi’s Horseshoe Tunica Hotel & Casino for another night of exciting MMA action on Friday, November 18.
Topping the bill is undefeated prospect Raheam “Rambo” Forest (5-0), who will challenge for the vacant CFFC welterweight title. Meanwhile, the co-main event sees reigning CFFC middleweight champion Donovan “The Highlight Reel” Beard (7-2) return to the promotion to put his belt on the line against undefeated challenger Dylan “The Soul Snatcher” O’Sullivan (5-0).
In a featured bout on the evening, impressive featherweight prospect Beau Samaniego (4-1) looks for his fourth consecutive victory, but standing in his way is Dana White’s Contender Series veteran Lance “The Tornado” Lawrence (6-3).
Tickets are on sale now at CFFC.tv. The event streams live on UFC Fight Pass.
“Raheam Forest looked incredible in July and absolutely earned the right to compete for our welterweight title, and there’s no better place to have him do that than right down the street from his hometown of Memphis,” CFFC CEO Rob Haydak stated. “Meanwhile, Arkansas’ Donovan Beard also looked fantastic in July in claiming our middleweight title after beating a previously undefeated Miles Lee and taking a call to Dana White’s Contender Series to face the absolute hottest prospect in MMA in Bo Nickal. Donovan came up short that night, but he was one of the only fighters in the world looking to take on that challenge, and now he’s already back and hungry to fight for the fourth time this year – and to take on his third consecutive undefeated opponent.”
Also confirmed for the card are several other stellar matchups, as well, including A.J. “The Savage” Cunningham (9-2) vs. Edward “The Ninja” Massey (7-6), Dustin Dipuma (1-0) vs. Danny “LeftHand2God” Barlow (3-0) and Nick Delahoussaye (3-2) vs. Jonathan Williams (6-3).
Additional bouts will be added shortly.
