Universal Combat Championship
debuted their first event in March of 2010, “UCC 1: MERCILESS,” and has
continued to distinguish itself as the premiere ALL PROFESSIONAL MMA fight
league in the Tri-State area. The league’s recent success has been powered by
an arsenal of exciting matchups, featuring championship caliber fighters such
as Rolles Gracie, David Branch, Dante Rivera, John Cholish, Andy Main and
Felipe Arantes. The UCC has also proved itself as an impressive breeding ground
for first-time professional fighters and upcoming talent. The UCC has gone on
to produce 4 exciting events in 2010 and 2011, and will look to exceed the
expectations of its viewers with UCC 5. TheGarv.com was quoted describing the
fighters from UCC 2: STRIKEDOWN, “from the opening bell to the last moments of
the main event,” as nothing short of gladiators. Highlights from the Universal
Combat Championship fight series have been re-aired on national television by
HDNet Fight’s Inside MMA.
