Des Moines, IA- February 4, 2009- The production level of live professional mixed martial arts (MMA) in Iowa becomes elevated to a new level on Saturday, March 14 when Midwest Cage Championship brings MCC 19: The Return, to the Val Air Ballroom. Attendees will benefit from the addition of a 7 by 10 foot video display to get a closer look at ten bouts, including the interim Lightweight Championship and main event when undefeated Joe “The Hammer” Brammer versus Kansas City superstar Michael Johnson. Brammer has not fought in an MCC event since 2006, and his bout against Gracie Barra fighter Johnson could prove the fight of the year, certainly so far. The winner, thus interim champ, will face current MCC champion Bryce Teager to unify the title in a bout scheduled for later this year.

Other key bouts include Alex Harper taking on grappling phenom Jake “Dirty Bird” Brown as Harper comes off a devastating knockout win over Colby Karaidos in MCC 18. Another highly anticipated fight occurs when Brian “Smokin” Green returns to MCC action facing Evan Marks. Both men had the near capacity crowd at MCC 18 on their chairs with their victorious wins. Green won by submission over Jason Loucke and Marks win by brutal knockout over Ronnie Britt. Green, a former MCC Middleweight champion, has been clear with his intent to regain the belt and not allowing anyone to stand in his way.

In a perfect match up in the Bantam Weight division, feet and fists will fly a million miles per hour as Nate “Teddy Bear” Williams takes on Johnny La Prai in both fighters pro debuts. Williams, a classically trained and successful wrestler, puts his skills against nationally known boxer La Prai. This fight could go any direction, knowing the one certainty is the speed of the action.

Bouts featuring Paul “Gingabread Man” Bird, Ronnie “Warfrog” Britt, and Josh “The Bull” Christensen are sure to be other crowd favorites.

The crowd is sure to be pleased as views of the fights will be greatly improved via the giant video display. The display is being installed by All Over Media, the nations premier provider of indoor advertising, based on the formation of a strategic marketing agreement with Midwest Cage Championship. All Over Media provides technology and advertising content for national brands as well as local businesses to outlets including Wells Fargo Arena, Applebee’s, Champs, Hooters, and other high traffic locations. “We’re thrilled to participate in such an exciting sport, and feel we found the perfect fit with MCC”, stated All Over Media/Iowa owner Randy Luedtke. “We attended previous MCC events at the Val Air to determine what improvements could be delivered and found the addition of digital video at the top of the list for many of the people we spoke with”, Luedtke concluded.
