Still trying to find results from last night's UCFC "Rumble on the Rivers" event that went down in Pittsburgh and featured LionHeart Fighters Phil Davis and Paul Bradley (word was David Sachs did not fight) plus veterans like Rich Clementi and Cole Miller, not to mention hot female prospect - and new LionHeart Fighter Meghan Wright. I'll let you know when I find out something.

This one promises to be a good one, with three LionHeart Fighters on the card, plus one of my favorite former UFC'ers, Rich "No Love" Clementi.

Well, here's another: Cage Fight 1, on June 12 at the Riverfront Sports Complex in Scranton.

Here's a blurb I found from the event's Web site:

Be prepared as Scranton comes alive with top MMA fighting action with a Pro MMA fight card comprised of 6 fights including local Pro Boxing favorite, Marty Flynn making his debut as an MMA professional. The main event will feature Ultimate Fighter Robbie Houston (5-2) vs. Erik "Chainsaw" Charles (10-2), the former Ultimate Fighter 7 competitor, in a middleweight bout.
