Three’s a charm, as CSC 22 is headlined by THREE professional title
matches. Shane Campbell of Canada defends his WKA World Muay Thai Title
against Holland’s own Chris Nigimbi. This is a rematch between two of
the top fighters in the world that will leave one fighter sitting on
top. In the second professional title match, American Top Team’s Ricardo
Tirloni (Florida) takes on Team Combat and current Eastern Regional
champion Anthony Morrison (Pennsylvania) for the vacant WKA Professional
US MMA title. The third title match has the prodigy of retired Muay Thai

The card is also stacked with great talent from National powerhouse
gyms. Mike “The Hulk” Easton from Team Lloyd Irvin (Maryland) collides
with Reynaldo Duarte of American Top Team (Florida) in Professional MMA
action. The heat is turned up at Team Lloyd Irvin’s Maryland training
center and the training has been ferocious as Brandon Vera checks in to
ready himself for his match up against Tim Silva in an upcoming UFC
fight. Team Lloyd Irvin’s rising star, Marshall Thompson, tests his
skill against Miletich Fighting system’s Ramiro Hernandez.
CSC always brings the best local talent to the ring and this time is no
different featuring Virginia based stars Dwayne “Diesel” Shelton (Team
Combat) who is looking to improve his win streak by stopping Canada’s
Nelson Sobral. Active duty Marine, Phillip Wyman will gear up for the
always game Levon Maynard (Virginia) in Levon’s Pro debut.

fighter the CSC has ever seen in his last battle at the CSC.
Two professional boxing matches are also on the card to please. Richmond

feet with his hard hitting toe - to - toe fighting style as he faces
Carolina grown Lamont Crawford. In another match up of Virginia vs.
Carolinia, Abdul Gilliard takes on Ed Edwards.
