On Saturday, September 5, Midwest Cage Championship returns to Veterans Memorial Auditorium as Nutrishop presents: MCC 22 “Reality Check”. With thirteen exciting fights on the card, the Midwest’s top promotion looks to once again, impress the fans and deliver fights the way only MCC can. “This could possibly be one of the most loaded events we’ve ever put on,” stated MCC co-owner and matchmaker, Ryan Hass. He added, “Many times, the main event is the selling point, but on this card, we’ve put together so many interesting fights, any one of them could be fight of the night, or fight of the year.” MCC 22 will feature the two fighters starring in MCC’s reality show, the Mediacom produced, “Making the Fighter”. Joe “The Hammer” Brammer will put his interim lightweight belt on the line when he meets former featherweight champion, Chris “Mad Dog” Mickle in a five round bout, and Colby “The Alligator” Karadios will face off against undefeated up and comer, Daraughn Canada.

Earlier this month, Midwest Cage Championship held it second ever trials show as they scouted the MMA scene for fresh, up and coming fighters. In front of a sell out crowd, several fighters earned their invitations into MCC, and a few of them will make their debut at MCC 22. In one of the most exciting back and forth bouts of the night, Nate “Teddy Bear” Williams and Josh “The Jackhammer” Troen agreed to a rematch. Fighters such as Laramie Shaffer, Zak Laird, and Nick Rouse all came up with big wins, and look to keep their streak going as they step up to the lights, cameras, and big crowd at MCC 22.

Seasoned veterans and MCC favorites like Josh “The Bull” Christensen, Jesse Lund, Alex Harper, and Jake “Dirty Bird” Brown will also be back in action looking to take one step closer to the titles in their respective weight divisions. MCC co-owner, John Halverson commented, “This card has some of the best veterans mixed with some of the best up and coming fighters. Some of these guys you see on this show will be some of the guys you’ll be watching on pay per view in the future. Trust me.”
