Amaury Bitetti, head of the Bitetti Combat, event that will take place at the Maracanazinho, Rio de Janeiro, in September, just confirmed to Sensei SporTV crew a cast of fighter that will make the event arguably even more atractive to us Brazilian than many editions of the UFC.
At the same night the fans will have the opportunity to see Ricardo Arona, Paulão Filho, Pedro Rizzo and Rogério Nogueira "Minotouro".
And it could get even better: Vitor Belfort is very close to a deal. "If Vitor doesn't sign, will be Murilo Ninja Rua", disclose Bitetti.
Also, the fights will be in a cage, not in a ring.
(...)
Amaury also confirmed some of the fights:
Minotouro will face Alex Stiebling and Pedro Rizzo will fight against fellow Brazilian heavyweight Gerônimo “Mondragon”.
Even the preliminary bouts will be atractive.
Glover Teixeira will fight against Leonardo Chocolate in a rematch of the championship bout of the ADCC trials, earlier this year.
Rematch also with K-1 vetern Vitor Miranda against Fábio Maldonado.
BJJ aces Miltinho Vieira vs. Luciano Azevedo is also a highly aticipated matchup.
Even the referees of the event will be big starts: Big John McCarthy and Renzo Gracie.
The scorecards will be under the responsability of Fernando Pinduka, Osíris Maia e Roan Jucão.
Ricardo Arona vs Marvin Eastman Rogerio Minotouro vs Alex Stiebling Pedro Rizzo vs Geronimo Mondragon
Paulao Filho vs American fighter Vitor Belfort or Murilo Ninja vs T.B.A. Glover Teixeira vs Leonardo Chocolate Vitor Miranda vs Fabio Maldonado Miltinho Vieira vs Luciano Azevedo
I hope Filho gets his ass handed to him again. This dude was one of the most overrated fighters in the history of mma and had one of the worst attitudes that I have seen. He just seems like a giant douche.
I'm really looking forward to Antonio Rogerio vs "the Brazilian Killer". Hope these fights are findable in the US.
