Royal Farms Arena
Shogun Fights XXIII
November 2, 2019 - 6:30PM
The East Coast’s Premier MMA Organization
The brain-child of John Rallo, Shogun fights regularly packs several of the largest venues in the region including Royal Farms Arena in Baltimore, The Theater at MGM National Harbor and Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Ft Lauderdale. A hotbed for celebrities and UFC stars, Shogun events will continue to be a Baltimore mainstay for a time to come.
With a successful (albeit short) MMA career and stint as a celebrity bodyguard under his belt, working with the likes of Tommy Lee and Sylvester Stallone, Rallo focused on opening a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy after receiving his blackbelt from Renzo Gracie himself. During this time he worked towards legalizing MMA in the state of Maryland, eventually passing legalization in one session – an unheard of feat with new legislature. With the arena wide-open, Rallo has spent years promoting shows and building a roster of packed talent, with several fighters going to the UFC, Invicta, Bellator, Dana White’s Contender Series and PFL amongst others.

Photo by Josh Hedges/Zuffa LLC/Zuffa LLC via Getty Images Following wins over a pair of former title contenders in Volkan Oezdemir and Ovince Saint Preux, undefeated light heavyweight Dominick Reyes knew he was inching closer and closer to title contention. Reyes came to the UFC as a highly touted prospect, and thus far, he’s lived up to the billing with five straight wins while climbing up the ranks at 205 pounds. This weekend at UFC on ESPN 6, Reyes faces a different kind of test. He’s taking on former middleweight champion Chris Weidman, who’ll be making his first appearance in… Read more » - Colby Covington: I’ll slap Dana White in face with UFC belt if he tries to put it on mePhoto by Josh Hedges/Zuffa LLC/Zuffa LLC via Getty Images In a move befitting of a made-up title, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson will put the “BMF” belt on the winner of UFC 244. If former interim welterweight champ Colby Covington is to be believed, the UFC might want to inquire about The Rock’s availability if it doesn’t want the fourth wall broken at UFC 245. Covington, who fights welterweight champ Kamaru Usman for the undisputed title on Dec. 14, threatens to get violent if UFC President Dana White does his normal duty and straps the belt on the winner. ”I can… Read more »
