ATT fighters did a great job last night inside a packed house in the Hard Rock Hotel in Hollywood, FL. 

Jahmal McLennan grabbed his first W with the team by finishing off Jimmy Chaikong in the first round via traingle choke. Nice to see Jahmal finally get his chance to shine. 

Donovan Ciolfi from Roger Krahl's ATT Sunrise academy did a great job of finishing off his opponent Bran Reddi in the first round via TKO. Donovans a hard worker who spent alot of time at the main academy preparing for this fight. I'm sure all his fellow fierfighters are proud.

Rodrigo "Baga" Ramos took on Ben Marrow. Both fighters came out throwing, but "Baga" was able to get the fight to the ground and impose his ground game on Ben. Baga almost had a choke but after a short scramble he finished with a tight armbar for the tapout win.

Good to see an old friend still doing his thing while holding down a full time job, running a successful ATT (Davie) academy, and still find the time and effort to train. Well done!

Steve Bruno took on Clayton McKinney. Clayton threw some nice strikes but Steve was able to get this one to the mat and worked a nice combination of elbows and stikes before settling in on a d'arce choke to finish off his opponent. Nice win for Steve who battled through some bumps and bruises through this training camp but came through it all looking strong. Good win Stevie!

Congrats to all our fighters who put the necessary work in and the coaches behind the scenes who make it all happen! Great effort guys!

Las Vegas, NV (USA) – World Extreme Cagefighting® featherweight champion Mike Brown has built a reputation as a hard-hitting, gritty fighter capable of breaking down his opponents. Similarly, top-ranked contender Jose Aldo has established a name for himself by steamrolling the opposition with explosive punches and devastating knees. On Wednesday, Nov. 18 from The Pearl at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, NV, one of these men will leave the cage as the undisputed featherweight champion of the world.

World Extreme Cagefighting® officially announced today that the long-awaited title clash between champion Mike Brown and fierce challenger Aldo will take place in the fight capital of the world, Las Vegas, NV.

“This fight is for more than just the featherweight title,” WEC GM Reed Harris said. “For Mike Brown, a win establishes him as the best featherweight fighter in the history of the sport. For Aldo, who is just 22 years old, this fight could mean the start of an Anderson Silva-like dominant reign.Tickets for Brown vs. Aldo go on sale Tuesday, Sept. 22 at 12 p.m. PT and will be priced at $175, $100, and $50.

Riding a four-year, 10-fight unbeaten streak than includes wins over Urijah Faber (twice), Leonard Garcia, Jeff Curran, and Yves Edwards, featherweight champion Mike Brown (22-4) has cemented his place as the top 145-pounder in the world. Boasting a devastating right hand and slick submission skills, the American Top Team-trained Brown is gearing up for volatile collision with the young Brazilian challenger.

“He’s really, really good for a young kid,” Brown, who defeated Faber via unanimous decision in June, said of Aldo. “I’m 12 years older than him, so I’m going to have to use my experience and my ‘old man strength’ to take him out.

“I hear a lot about how explosive Aldo is and how hard he hits,” Brown continued. “We’ll see how he does when I control the fight and push him like he’s never been pushed before.”

Perhaps no fighter instills as much fear in opposing fighters as Aldo. A vicious striker from the renowned Nova Uniao fight team in Brazil, Aldo (15-1) scored one of the best knockouts in history in his last fight in June. In just eight seconds, the 22-year-old landed two, mid-air flying knees to the head of Cub Swanson, ending the bout in dramatic fashion. Also owning wins over Rolando Perez, Chris Mickle, and Jonathan Brookins in his WEC career, Aldo is confident that he’ll win his first world title in Las Vegas.

“I’m so happy to get this shot at such a young age,” Aldo said. “Mike Brown is a nice champion. His wrestling and boxing are really good, but his ground game is not the same. Like all of my other fights in WEC, I’m trying to finish this one as fast as I can and become world champion.”



GOOD LUCK CHAMP!!

GO MIKE BROWN!!
