The event will feature two championship fights in the Middleweight and Welterweight Divisions.  Middleweight Champion Alexandre “Vaca” Moreno (11-2, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt), will make his first title defense after his title win by armbar in February 2011 against Domenic Gagliardi (4-1, Bristol, CT), who is coming off a recent win by knockout.  The Welterweight Championship will be decided when Nate Lamotte (12-5, Manchester, NH) faces off against Brett Oteri (8-3, Dedham, MA).  Lamotte is a former title holder and is looking to get the belt back while Oteri has two big wins in Reality Fighting and has risen to the number one contender spot.
The main card is stacked from top to bottom with some of the best New England talent.  Connecticut’s Chris Simmons returns to the cage to face Massachusetts’ Joe DeChaves and John Naples of Uncasville, CT faces Steve Carr in a featherweight fight. 
Also fighting are knockout artist Dwight Grant (won last two fights by KO), submission wizard Jeremy Ross, Massachusetts’ wrestling champion Joe McGann and more.
