IT Fight Series 36 is set to go down this weekend in Lima, as the organization returns to UAW Hall for its second event of the month.
The lineup for the event is now complete, with the addition of eight amateur bouts including one title fight to the previously reported five pro bouts and one amateur bout. The card now stands at 14 total bouts.
The main event features Antonio Castillo Jr. (8-4) making his IT Fight Series debut, as he takes on veteran Steve Smith (7-9) in a featherweight bout. Four other pro bouts are also slated for the event, including a co-feature pitting Justin Sowers (2-3) and Matt Anderson (1-5). A rematch between Reggie Merriweather (7-7) and Albert Cheng (5-3) will also take place, as well as a re-scheduled welterweight contest with Timmy McCavit (4-1) vs. Portland Pringle (6-4). Rounding out the pro portion of the card will be debuting lightweights Chris Brooks (0-0, 5-2 am) and Lucas Ransbottom (0-0, 5-0 am).
On the amateur side, eight bouts have been added to the lineup, including a main event for the featherweight title pitting Mark Carosella (4-0) and Danny Moore (6-5).
Danny Moore has won his last two bouts, with decisions over Brandon Odom and Jason Rine last fall. Carosella looks to keep his unbeaten record intact, as he has picked up three wins via submission in his career.
At lightweight, Treg Wells (7-4) will look to rebound from a loss that snapped a six fight winning streak when he takes on Canadian fighter Brendan Fang (3-1). Fang hasn’t competed in more than three years, but he earned all three of his victories via submission.
