MANILA, Philippines - Reydon “Red” Romero finally gets the chance to defend his featherweight title when he faces ONE FC veteran Jian Kee Chee in the Universal Reality Combat Championship (URCC) 25 Colt 45 Oct. 23 at the Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City.
The DEFTAC standout dethroned Ricardo Sapno in dominant fashion last year in a win that reinforced his status as one of the toughest fighters in the country today.
Romero, however, has to produce the same fireworks if he wants to overpower the deadly Malaysian striker in one of the featured matches of the 10-fight card presented by Colt 45.
The bantamweight title will also be on the line in the event which have Solar Sports and GMA 7 as media partners as Rey Transmonte (5-2) takes on Andrew Benibe (5-7) in a rematch of their close encounter also last November.
Also supporting the event are Tribal Gear, Chevrolet Makati, Hyundai Parañaque West, Shacman Motors, Inc. and BYD Phils.
Tickets are now available at smticket.com. First fight starts at 8 p.m.
