DONOFRIO MMA AND TXC RESULTS:

The summer got much, much hotter Saturday night, with two MMA powerhouses, Donofrio MMA, The Impact Fight League and Triple X Cagefighting join forces to deliver another stunning night of fight action. The combined promoting expertise of Joseph Donofrio and Joseph Battaglea  shone through once again at this amazing event. The master of ceremonies and all things fight info was our buddy Phil “The Voice” Davey.  Keeping the fighters safe in the cage were 3 Michigan pro fighters and seasoned officials, Harley Swede, Darrin Crushank and Vance Swerdan. Outside the cage was one of my personal favorite fight medics, James Hill Harris . All the still photography for the event was masterfully handled by Todd Samson from Todd Sampson Photgraphy . Color commentary for the live broadcast was provided by Michigan's premier fight professor, Steve "The Guru" Lafrate and boxing phenom and all around fight specialist Kara "KO" Ro. Also, we can't forget to shout out to security professional and Mr. Donofrio's indispensable assistant, Oscar "Big Ox" Brown, who is always in the house to make sure the action stays where it belongs - in the cage. The co-main event, Sean Casey and Paul "Ox Blood" Maffesoli, was an instant classic with a highlight reel quality KO! If you missed the event, don't despair...you can always catch the re-broadcast on Cagefightinglive.com. or watch MyTV 20 on Sunday, July 10th! Donofrio MMA’s next event is schedule for the ever popular Meadow Brook Music Festival on the campus of Oakland University on September 10, 2011.
