Along with a great night of fights featuring a 10-fight card, Crowbar MMA has added another attraction for the evening’s festivities. The award winning band Firehouse will be playing directly after the event for the in-house audience. The main event features a heavyweight throw down between UFC veterans James “The Hammer” McSweeney (4-6) VS. Francisco “Kiko” France (6-1). Both McSweeney and France are looking to launch powerful bombs in each other’s direction so this night will be full of fireworks. In the co-main event Tat “Mean Bean” Romero (16-3) fights Bellator vet Chris Page (2-4) in what is sure to be a barnburner as these two fighters always compete in overdrive. The card also has a pair of women’s fights with world-ranking implications. #3 Shana “Rock Solid” Olsen (3-1) battles Elaina “Beef” Maxwell (4-4) in one fight while #9 Barb “Little Warrior” Honchak (3-1) squares off against Nina Ansaroff (1-1). – Friday, April 29, 2011 6:00pm ET featuring Semi Finals – 3FC/Sportfight X Tournament at The Grand Hotel & Convention Center, Pigeon Forge, TN. The tournament features some outstanding fights and fighters from Tennessee, Kentucky, Georgia, Virginia, North Carolina, and Alabama. In the 155 Grand Prix Semi Finals, we have Itai Tirado fighting out of Nemesis MMA and Scott Holtzman fighting out of Shield Systems. Both fighters are undefeated and highly touted prospects in the division. Also fighting is two of the South East’s very best in Team Bushido’s super striker Tyler Wilson and number one ranked and undefeated stud Jesse Grissom out of Team Truth! This bout will also be for the ISKA Tennessee State Title! Billy Mullins fighting out of Fit Factory will look to avenge an early loss from James Foy, of Team ROC. Both guys are ranked in the ATO.COM’s top ten list and have come along tremendously since locking horns early in their careers. Look for a WAR in this one! On the other side of the bracket we have Alex Anderson from Nemesis MMA looking to continue his winning streak by taking out former number one ranked Chris Hall, fighting out of IMA. Hall is coming off an upset loss and has promised the best performance of his career! Fighting for the 125 3FC title will be the two hottest prospects in the South East.
