Wilmington, Massachusetts

Boston, MA - Fans once again packed the Shriners Auditorium Friday night for the third installment of World

Championship Fighting. The night was filled with action packed fights from start to finish and a special

autograph session with UFC Fighters: Marcus "the Irish Hand Grenade" Davis, Kenny "KenFlo" Florian,

Jorge "El Conquistador" Rivera, Joe "J-Lau" Lauzon, and Internet Legend Sean "The Gladiator" Gannon the

only man to beat Kimbo Slice. The night's action included UFC veteran Dan "The Upgrade" Lauzon and

Brendan Hoxie engaging in a battle that continuously saw Lauzon get the better of the exchanges. Not one

for backing down, Hoxie displayed incredible resiliency and was able to endure the punishment being dished

out by Lauzon. Lauzon was able to finish the fight late in the second round by TKO improving his record to

10-2 and extending his win streak to six straight.

In the night's other featured bout, local favorites Mike Campbell and Rich Moskowitz faced each other in one

of the longest and most electric stare-downs with both fighters motioning to the crowd and jawing at each

other. At one point Rich Moskowitz removed his mouthpiece to exchange some words with Campbell before

the bout started. The fight began with both fighters coming out looking to impose their will, with Campbell

getting the better of the Moskowitz on his feet. Campbell then landed a crushing right hand that floored

Moskowitz and allowed Campbell the opportunity to close in and land punches from the top until the referee

jumped in to stop the fight.

World Championship Fighting promoter Joe Cavallaro said about the event, "We are so excited to see the

overwhelming support from our fans. We couldn't be any happier with the crowds we see here every single

show and with the amazing fights we're treated to each time out. It's really a thrill for us to bring this action to

the fans here in Massachusetts." The event drew between 3,000 and 3,400 fans and once again had the fans

talking about the fights all the way out to the parking lots. As a testiment to the excitement being generated

by World Championship Fighting, the event was covered by a trio of major media outlets including ESPN,

NBCSports.com, and HDNet. This marks the first time a local New England MMA promotion has been

covered by such a prestigious group of media. In addition to media coverage, WBCN The Rock of Boston

was on hand with the WBCN street team to support World Championship Fighting. WCF and WBCN

announced a partnership between the two companies earlier this month. World Championship Fighting would

like to thank all of fighters, fans, media and its great sponsors for making the event such an overwhelming

success. Mark your calendars now for our upcoming event on September 19th!

We'll see you at the fights!
