MFC: Marshall Fighting Championship Newsletter #1
Marshalls; The hour is almost upon us! This Saturday the MFC begins it’s worldwide journey in Brezno, Slovakia, with a stacked card featuring both MMA and Lethwei bouts, with the main event of the evening featuring a World Lethwei Federation title fight!
Over the past days our MFC President and Chief Operating Officer; Dave Leduc and Chris Garrido, have arrived in Slovakia and and are busy laying the finishing touches to their extensive preparations on the ground.
This event would not be possible without our MFC sponsors; GenBlok, Heal The World, Dogger Token, Luna Inu, Dosa Coin, Marshelle Inu, World Cup Inu and Play Numbers Game. We thank each and every one and believe that this will be the beginning of a beautiful relationship between our projects!
Several weeks ago we invited our community to compete to design the main event belt and we commissioned the winning design. This has now been completed and it’s truly a fantastic belt. It will be presented to the winner of the 71kg World Lethwei Federation clash between Lariviere and Kosik.
This weekends main event will be streamed live worldwide on Marshall Inu’s YouTube. Tom Wesselink will be our ring announcer. Tom is a stalwart of Enfusion Live - a Dutch kickboxing promotion. Tom is very excited to make his debut as our very own announcer at MFC1!
Introducing our official commentator for the Marshall Fighting Championship — Andy Whitelaw! Andy is a Content manager for FIFA in Asia and commentator for World Lethwei, Full Metal Dojo and host for One FC, BJPenn.com and Sportskeeda. MFC’s very own Chris Garrido will share commentary duties with Andy!
The Face-offs will take place on Sat 28th with the historic Bojnice Castle providing a fairy-tale backdrop to these well prepared warriors as they come nose to nose for the very first time! And on the night of the 29th the live action gets underway in the industrially themed Double Red Cars Museum Arena.
