Combat sports fans across the Marianas are set for a spectacular close to the year as Trench Tech presents Cage of Fire II this Saturday at the Garapan Central Park Roundhouse.
The fight night will feature an epic 18-bout card across boxing, kickboxing, and MMA, culminating in the highly anticipated main event, “The Big Brawl”—a heavyweight clash between Guam’s Dylan Benavente (BenaventeStriking) and Saipan’s Cody Dela Cruz (Ind.), fueling a fierce island rivalry.
During last year’s inaugural Cage of Fire semi-main event, Benavente scored the fastest knockout of the night with a head kick in just six seconds of the first round. This time, Dela Cruz is expected to match Benavente’s aggression in a bout sure to deliver fireworks.
The semi-main event is a pivotal MMA flyweight matchup, with last year’s headliner Keith Sablan (BenaventeStriking) facing off against Jadrien “SNIPER” Camacho.
