DFCC has clean sweep and title win August 13th

Our fight team has been very focused lately. Instead of being discouraged from the cancellation of the China trip, our fighters turned their focus and training onto things a little more local. The training that they have been putting themselves through paid off on August 13th. 

Ian King made his amateur MMA debut with a quick armbar victory over Christian Resendez. 

Jessee Filan improved his professional record to 1-1 with a triangle choke win over Jake Thomas early in round 1. 

Mike Frear fought a 5 round battle against Chris Calabrese to win via unanimous decision. Mike is now the 155lb title holder for the Knucklehead Fight Promotion. 

Congratulations to all of our DFCC fight team members for the wins and to their training partners for helping make it happen. 

Below are attached videos of their fights and a couple of interviews.
