Lion Fight 19 Fight Card

Lion Fight 19 is set to take place November 21 at Foxwoods Casino in Ledyard, CT. The event will be Lion Fight's third event at Foxwoods this year. Two title fights will be featured at Lion Fight 19. The main event will be current welterweight champion Fabio Pinca vs. Sean Kearney, and the co-main event will feature champion Caley Reece vs. Chajmaa Bellekhal. Four more pro bouts will take place at Lion Fight 19, they are Rungravee Sasiprapa vs. Ognjen Topic, Chris Mauceri vs. Coke Chunhawat, Pedro Gonzalez vs. Rungrat Sasiprapa, and Matt Doherty vs. Julio Pena.

Pinca will return to defend his Lion Fight title after defeating Malaipet Sasiprapa at Lion Fight 12 in November of 2013 to win the title. Kearney will be looking to score the biggest win of his career when he steps in the ring with Pinca. Kearney has spent a lot of time in Thailand as of late and has won his last two fights. Under the Max Muay Thai promotion he defeated Sanpetch Kiatpetchnoi by KO and most recently he scored a decision victory over Iquezang Kor. Rungthanakeat at Thai Fight Vietnam. Kearney will definitely have his work cut out for him as Pinca has been in the ring with some of the best in the Muay Thai and Kickboxing world.

Like Pinca, Reece will also look to have a successful first title defense when she take on Bellekhal. Topic will also be looking to score the biggest victory of his young and successful career when he steps into the ring against "The Thai Terminator" Rungravee Sasiprapa. Topic has spent the better part of 2014 in Thailand, his bout with Rungravee has the potential for not only fight of the night but also fight of the year.

Three bouts have been confirmed for Lion Fight 19 on November 21 at Foxwoods Casino in Ledyard, Connecticut. The main event will feature a Lion Fight welterweight world title fight between France's Fabio Pinca and Canada's Sean Kearney.

Reece won her title by defeating Tiffany Van Soest at Lion Fight 13 by split decision. She will now attempt to defend her title for the first time since becoming champion. Bellekhal, a Dutch striker will look to dethrone Reece and it should prove to be a great fight. It will be interesting to see how Bellekhal deals with Reece's clinch.

Rungravee Sasiprapa and Ognjen Topic have the potential to put on the fight of the year, both fighters bring exciting styles to the ring and it should be a back and forth fight. Rungravee is fresh off a win over Pornsanae Sitmonchai at Siam Warriors in Cork, Ireland while Topic has spent the better part of the year training and fighting in Thailand. Fans should be really excited for this one.
