                    [Title] => Rodriguez stakes belt in URCC tilt
                    [Summary] => An exciting match between two local martial arts experts will be the highlight of the third Universal Reality Combat Championship (URCC III) on Sept. 20 at the NBC Tent in Fort Bonifacio.


The main event will feature Richie Lazaro, co-founder of Pasukuang Labanan and an expert in Machado, Sari-an, Muay Thai and AAK, and Fritz Rodriguez, a Jiu-Jitsu grappling champion and the first Filipino to compete in the Mundials World Championship in Brazil. The fight will certainly raise a lot of interest because both are undefeated in mixed martial arts competitions.
