Fight to Win 171 takes place in Miami on April 24. Florida local and hometown hero Vagner Rocha will take on rising star William Tackett in the main event.
This no-gi match pits the #1-ranked 185lb no-gi grappler Rocha of Fight Sports against Tackett of Checkmat, who is ranked #3.
Rocha is coming off a valiant performance against Gordon Ryan at WNO, having spent 19 minutes on the mat with the #1-ranked P4P grappler in the world.

Voted the 2020 Breakthrough Grappler, Tackett has scored a series of high profile wins over the last months including submissions over Fellipe Andrew and 2019 World No-Gi champion Manuel Ribamar. Tackett's rise through the sport saw him submit opponents including Aaron Tex Johnson, Andrew Wiltse and Jason Rau. Recently Tackett went to OT losing only on points (one takedown) to ultra-heavyweight Victor Hugo.
Tackett has been campaigning for matches against grapplers ranked higher than him and will get his wish at Fight to Win 170 on April 24.
