Nick Greene vs. Ron Keslar – Main Event

Ron Keslar is an MMA veteran with 20 fights under his belt, including appearances in Bellator and Strikeforce. The Checkmat team member took second place at No-Gi Worlds in 2016 in the Masters 2 division and employs a wrestling heavy, top-game oriented approach. 

He’s facing a huge test in F2W Pro veteran and Kurt Osiander black belt Nick Greene, who is known for his showmanship and unorthodox techniques. Expect the "Korean Bomba" to put on a show. 


Bill Cooper vs. Noad Lahat

We’re loving the fact that Bill "The Grill" Cooper has become a regular staple on the F2W Pro circuit. An innovator to the core, Cooper is 100 percent focused on the submission and is known to finish the fight from a variety of positions. Cooper is coming off a big win over Mark Vivies and looking to extend his F2W streak to 2-0.

Standing across from Cooper is Noad Lahat, a jiu-jitsu, judo back belt, AND MMA veteran with a professional record of 12-3. Six of Lahat's wins come via submission, and the Israeli fighter has a knack for getting his opponents out of their comfort zone by grappling against the cage and forcing the fight to the ground. We're excited to see how this top prospect adapts his game to submission-only jiu-jitsu. 


Jeremy Jackson vs. Eric Coe


This match is pure fire. Eric Coe is the current 165lb brown belt titleholder who recently finished Alex lane at F2W Pro 74 with a beautiful choke from the back. Coe has been on the F2W Pro stage five times already and his experience and submission-oriented style is a massive hurdle for anyone he faces.

Meanwhile, Jeremy Jackson is simply a cardio machine. Already a submission-of-the-night winner at F2W Pro, Jackson is also possibly one of the strongest 165lbers on the planet. Coe had better watch his feet in this match, as Jackson will waste little time trying to take one home with him.


Mason Fowler vs. Renato Tagliari

Mason Fowler exploded onto the scene at the end of 2017 when he beat two Atos killers in Adam Bradley and Conner Degalins at No-Gi Worlds. Fowler carried the positive momentum through European Championships where he ran through the competition to take gold in the purple belt ultra-heavyweight division. Fowler did the same thing last weekend at World Championships and was promoted on the podium to brown belt.  

Renato Tagliari, also a purple no-gi world champion and Pan champion, hasn't seen any major wins yet in 2018, but make no mistake, he's exceptionally talented. Tagliari recently took third at ACB's North American Championships and will look to carry the positive momentum Friday on the F2W Pro stage.
