Thoughts on this event>>>??

MAIN CARD


185-lbs

“Ruthless” Robbie Lawler Trevor “ The Experiment” Garrett
Miletich Fighting Systems, Iowa vs. Killing Fields MMA, Ohio

Lawler is on the hunt for the Icon Middleweight, now worn by Frank Trigg. Garrett is no stepping stone. Like Lawler, Garrett is a freakishly athletic fighter has one-punch KO power. This will be a stand-up war-of-the-ages.


185-lbs

“Charuto” Renato Verissimo Kris Fleurestil
HMC, Honolulu vs. Reinhardt MMA, Iowa

Charuto, now training at BJ Penn’s camp in Hilo, makes his Icon debut. Fleurstil is a talented grappler who will try over power Charuto with big takedowns and ground & pound technique.


205-lbs

Jeremy “½ Man ½ Amazing” Williams Derek Thornton
Legends Gym, Hollywood vs. Freelance, Honolulu

Pro-boxer-turned-MMA-star Williams makes his thrilling returns to Icon. Thornton, fresh off his win at the Hawaii NAGA grappling tourney, will try avoid Williams devastating strikes and take the bout to the ground.





Heavyweight

Scott “Punk Haole” Junk John George
MMA Development, Kailua vs. Reinhardt MMA, Iowa

Hawaii’s # 1 ranked heavyweight Scott Junk makes his Icon debut. John George is a Midwest power house who is coming to throw down with Junk.


145-lb Hawaii State Title

“The Eastside Strangler” Chico Cantiberos Bronson Pieper
Eastsidaz, Waimanalo vs. Hard Knocks, Waianae

The State title goes on the line as two of Hawaii’s most exciting fighters square off in Icon.

Nice to see Charuto back in action. If he wins here and then again in April then he could end up fighting the winner of Lawler vs. Trigg.
