The winner of this fight will pick up the biggest win of their career. On Saturday night someone’s winning streak will come to an end and a United Combat Association Cruiserweight Champion will be crowned.

Anthony Gutierrez

The fighters competing on the under card will definitely keep the crowd excited. A fight you will need to be in your seat for is Anthony Gutierrez, Orange Co Fire Dept vs. Carlos Vega, CDCR, Blythe. Gutierrez is 1-2 but could easily be 3-0. His two loses were by split decision to Greg Eisert, Vacaville P.D and Roger Serrato, Riverside P.D. Both fights received “Fight of the Night” honors. Vega is coming off a solid win over Josh Carrasco, RSO Hemet. Vega has heavy hands and a killer instinct. Expect Vega to come forward with controlled aggression and power. Gutierrez does not know how to be in a boring fight. He is an offensive fighter with good hand speed and footwork.  This fight promises to bring Fistic Fireworks.  The card is full of talented fighters who will be looking to make a name for themselves. Alan Rojas, LASD, Jorge Salazar, RSO
