MMA organization wraps up a tour of 3 cities in 5 weeks while returning to
the historic Gray's Armory in downtown Cleveland, OH for NAAFS Caged Fury

The main event is the classic battle in the sport: Striker versus
Grappler, pitting World Combat League veteran and nationally ranked
kickboxer Ryan "The Lion" Madigan against Team Jorge Gurgel's Brandon
Pierce in a Pro Series Welterweight Contender's bout. Ryan Madigan enters
this fight with an undefeated record (3-0) inside the NAAFS cage,
including two spectacular knockouts.

lands," Madigan commented on a recent broadcast of NAAFS Radio

Fight Nite in the Flats IV, with a triangle choke in the second round
while improving his overall MMA record to 6-1.

take it the ground, where it better suits my strengths" retorted Pierce,
also on NAAFS Radio.
