Ultimate Reno Combat "Battleground"
By Eric Morrison/MMA-KO Nv

In an action packed night at the Reno Indian Colony Gym, Rick Collup presented Ultimate Reno Combat (URC) "Battleground" to an enthusiastic crowd. There was blood, skull cracking knee strikes, at times fierce grappling, and of course beautiful ring girls.  

The ample card featured 13 fights headlined by the first ever URC title fight. The judges had an easy night as it wasn't until the 12th fight of the night that they had to decide the outcome. It was intriguing to see the warrior-like stares and energy of these young fighters, most with no more than two fights in the cage. Reno Bail Bonds supplied t-shirts to all the winners and it was Memo Vasquez who captured the first ever URC Championship Belt by defeating Tony Weber at 2:37 in the 1st Rd.
