Gustavo Gomez and Leroy Vasquez headline Cage Combat 19 fight card
HOUSTON, TX – Fresh off their big victories at the last Garcia Promotions amateur event, Gustavo Gomez (GB Champions) and Leroy Vasquez (Paradigm) will now headline Cage Combat 19 this Friday night at the Humble Civic Center. The two face off for the lightweight title currently held by Vasquez. It’s a matchup between two big power punchers and will likely be more of a slugfest vs. a strategic ground battle, definitely a fan friendly affair. And whoever leaves with the belt will likely do so via a violent finish.
Prospect litter the rest of the Cage Combat 19 fight card. A few fighters Houston MMA fight fans have seen in the past include 4OZ fighter and resident “Caveman” Craig Grove along with the always enthusiastic Kendrick Hollaway. Also returning is Morgan Oriahi who trains with both Fight Lab and Victor Pozas NOGI BJJ. In addition, former amateur title contender Garvens Brun returns along with the always improving Clarence Brown.
