BodogFIGHT has announced plans for an event in Trenton, New Jersey on July 14 at the Sovereign Bank Arena. Headlining the delayed ION-televised card, former Bodog 170-pound champion Eddie Alvarez (Pictures) confronts Boston native Matt Lee (Pictures).
"Beating Matt is going to put me a step closer to winning back my championship belt," Alvarez said. The young Philadelphian suffered his first professional mixed martial arts loss against UFC veteran Nick Thompson (Pictures) back in April.
Also on the card, American Kickboxing Academy middleweight Trevor Prangley (Pictures) brings a three-fight win streak to the ring against PRIDE veteran Yuki Kondo (Pictures).
"Trevor is tough, but I've fought some of the best fighters in the world and I believe my experience will serve me well for this fight," Kondo was quoted as saying.
The vacant women's 135-pound championship belt will be on the line when Tara LaRosa squares off with New Yorker Laura D'Auguste.
Other notable bouts include Yves Edwards (Pictures) versus Jorge Masvidal; Chael Sonnen (Pictures) against Amar Suloev (Pictures); Yoshiki Takahashi (Pictures) facing Josh Curran; Roman Zentsov (Pictures) talking on Mark Burch (Pictures); and David Love fighting Brad Pickett (Pictures).
Freestyle Academy fighter Nick Agallar (Pictures) will compete on the card against a yet-to-be-decided opponent.
