RING OF FIRE returns August 1st with SUMMERBRAWL!!

The number one MMA event in the region, RING OF FIRE, returns with the 1st Annual SUMMERBRAWL

series.

On Saturday, August 1st at the Broomfield Event Center, MMA fans will be treated to a minimum of 12

exciting bouts featuring 3 title matches.

In the Main Event, Colorado's fastest rising star Tyler THUNDER Toner takes on the Brazilian Fabio

JUNGLE BOY Serrao for the Ring Of Fire Feather Weight Championship.

ROF 145 LB Championship

Tyler Toner (9-2, Aurora, CO) vs. Fabio Serrao (5-1, Manaus, Brazil)

Toner is touted as the next great thing to come out of Ring Of Fire. The promotion has a long history of

producing some of the sports biggest names, including most recently Donald Cerrone, Shane Carwin and

Eliot Marshall. Toner is also a Strikeforce veteran, but his biggest career win thus far happened just last

month in Japan. "Thunder" was able to score a 1st round knockout over Shootboxing legend Kenichi Ogata

in one of the biggest upsets in Shootboxing history. Toner is mainly known for his aggressive style, with a

strong stand up game honed by mentor Duane BANG Ludwig. Toner will be vacating his ROF Young Guns

title to vie for the ROF 145 Championship belt.

Facing Toner will be Fabio JUNGLE BOY Serrao. Serrao is a Brazilian JiuJitsu Black Belt under the

legendary Oswaldo Alves. Originally hailing from Manaus, Brazil, he currently trains with BJJ Black Belt and

Vale Tudo fighter Eduardo Mori. He has a 5-1 MMA record with 3 submission victories. Being a student of

the game and wanting to improve his skills he has sought out Sakasem THE PUNISHER Kanthawong to

polish his Muay Thai. Serrao is a also a NAGA Absolute Grappling Champion.

In the feature bout of the evening the dynamic Fabian THE FREAK Acuna clashes with IFL veteran Jon

GUNS Gunderson for the Ring Of Fire Light Weight Championship.

ROF 155 LB Championship

Fabian Acuna (5-1-1, Santiago, Chile) vs.  Jon Gunderson (18-7, Las Vegas, NV)

Fabian Acuna is one of the most exciting fighters on the ROF roster. He has been called a "155 lb Cung Le".

After nearly a six year layoff, "The FREAK" returned to action at ROF 34 and needed less than 3 minutes to

dispatch Contender Asia star James Martinez. Born and raised on the tough streets of Santiago, Chile,

Acuna is on of three brothers with a fighting spirit. A young Acuna channeled his aggression through

traditional martial arts first competing in bare knuckle karate matches. Acuna then tried his hand in

kickboxing bouts but found the format too limiting. After debuting MMA in 2001 at ROF 3 and winning by a

spinning elbow knockout, the tough Chilean has never looked back. Acuna is now making up for lost time

and hopes the ROF belt will spring board him in to the big leagues.

Facing Acuna for the vacant belt will be Jon GUNS Gunderson. Gunderson is a former member of Ken

Shamrock's Nevada Lions in the now defunct IFL. His career high came in challenging Ryan Schultz for the

IFL Championship in February of last year. He has the advantage over Acuna in experience with a 18-7

record. Stylistically this should be a barn burner since Gunderson started his career with a base in boxing.

He now trains in Las Vegas at Extreme Couture with some of the best fighters in the world. Gunderson is

wanting to get back in the limelight and looks for a win at ROF to give him that push.

The Ring Of Fire SUMMERBRAWL main card is filled with top notch fighters and will also see the return of a

few local favorites.

The now vacant 145 Young Guns belt will be up for grabs and Colorado's Brian Wood, and Hawaii's

Patrick Kui Gonsalves will have first dibs. The aggressive Justin Salas will face Throwdown Light Weight

contender Eddie Pelczynski in a 155 lb contender bout. In a battle of K-1Veterans, Andre Walker faces

Swedish fighter Andreas Spang at 185 lbs. And in single bouts former ROF Champion Christian

RELENTLESS Allen, and Mike NO EXCUSES Baldwin return to the RING OF FIRE stage.

The preliminary card will feature 2 womens bouts and highlight the top up and coming prospects in the

region.

The full fight card will be released next week.
