LIVE SATURDAY @ SKY
UTE CASINO IN IGNACIO,
CO.
NewMexicoMMA.com was ringside covering the first ever Pro

Mixed Martial Arts Event at Sky Ute Casino in Ignacio, Co. It

was a great St. Patrick's Day with 6 pro MMA fights. Resson

Messor stopped Brian Schoppman in the first round by ref

stoppage. Next fight had Matt Young from Durango taking out

Randy Blackwell by Rear Naked Choke in the 2nd round.

Aztec's own Ronnie Adair beat Colorado's Gary Borum by an

Arm Bar in the first round. In the Co-Main Event Mike Seal

outlasted a game John Cronk. Seal wins by tap out (fatigue)

at 4:25 in round 2. In the Main Event The FCFF Light Heavy

Weight Champion took on Farmington's Favorite fighter and

Head trainer of Team Four Corners Floyd Sword. This turned

out to be the biggest mismatch of the night. It took less than a

couple of minutes for Sword to get the win by Tap out (Arm

Bar). Before the Main Events Promoter Christopher Codeiro

introduced some Elite New Mexico Based Fighters. First up

was Keith Jardin, then Joey Villasenor and last but not lease

Rashad Evans. Each one of them took their turn with the mic.

It was cool to have 3 great fighters just walking around

signing autographs, taking pictures, and watching the fights.

Rashad confirmed his fight with The Huntington Beach Bad

Boy Tito Ortiz. What a great night of fights. Can't wait for

another Cordiero Promotions Event.

Thanks Christopher
