CageSport XX: Loaded from end to end

Tacoma, WA (July 10, 2012)–When Brian Halquist put together “CageSport XX,” he followed the same planthat’s helped him earn the notation as one of the west coast’s top promoters;putting the fans first.

Halquist, along with hisreliable staff, worked tirelessly on an exciting fight card slatedfor Saturday evening at the Emerald Queen Casino in Tacoma, WA.

Headlining the ten-bout eventis a three round lightweight battle between Spokane, WA’s Sterling Ford, 15-4,and interstate rival James Marohl, 6-1, of Longview. Both fighters are on the cusp of landing a big fight and have been on a hot streak during the last few years, winning 11 of their last 12 fights combined.

Female standouts “Slick”Sally Krumdiak of Bellingham, WA and “Little” Patricia Vidonicwill go toe to toe in the highly anticipated three round co-feature. Krumdiakand Medford, OR’s Vidonic fought most of the top fighter-sin and around the straw-weight division. Both are regarded as upper echelon fighters and believe a victory will earn them a title shot.
