URCC XIX: Collision is official. As we reported earlier, it will be headlined by a 135 lb. Super-Fight between URCC champ Kevin Belingon and former KOTC champ Ryan Diaz.
Two titles will also be on the line on the stacked undercard:
- Undefeatead wushu expert, Roy Docyogen, will be defending his URCC Pinweight Championship (119 lbs.) in a rematch against the very young and exciting Alvin Ramirez.
- Honorio Banario, who is fresh of that victory over Iranian, Razi Jabbari (Yes, the guy who got choked out by the promoter) will have a chance to take home another title for Team Lakay Wushu as he is set to take on URCC lightweight champ, Angelito Manguray, the exciting and undefeated Karate-based fighter that's already on his 40's.

A few hours before Manny Pacquiao won his 8th world championship in as much weight divisions, Royce Gracie was a surprise guest at URCC 18: Relentless this weekend, and was witness to the crowning of two new Filipino MMA champions. Submission Sport's Froilan Sarenas remained unbeaten as he choked out Jerry Legaspi in the first round to win the URCC Middleweight championship that UFC fighter, Zhang Tie Quan just vacated. In the co-headlining bout of the evening, Eric Kelly (5-0) defeated Saipan's Nate Flores by rear naked choke to capture the Featherweight title. Young prospects George Lusadan (4-0) of Lakay Wushu and Alvin Ramirez (3-2) of Yaw Yan also impressed on the night, with both pinweights (119 lbs) earning exciting first round submission victories. Full results can be found here.

Wushu Expert, and current URCC Welterweight Champ, Eduard Folayang (8-1), Won the Lightweight Super-Fight Title against the previously undefeated Bao She Ri Gu Leng on ESPN Martial Combat, held in Singapore. "I had a tough fight tonight, he was very quick. My last fight (video) was only a month ago so my conditioning is still good, but I still have a lot of room for improvement. Every round I persisted to win, and in the fourth round I knew I would win it. I was more prepared in this fight because I was able to execute my technique well. I am proud that so many Filipino people came to see me fight and I would like to thank them all." HT: James Goyder
