Cerrone (36-16 MMA) will be returning from an eleven month hiatus when he makes his walk to the Octagon this Spring. ‘Cowboy’ is winless in his last six fights, with this latest loss coming to Alex Morono by way of first round TKO.

Joe Lauzon

Meanwhile, Joe Lauzon (28-15 MMA) has not competed since October of 2019, where he earned a first round TKO victory over Jonathan Pearce. That win snapped a three-fight losing skid for ‘J-Lau’, who previously suffered setbacks to Clay Guida and Stevie Ray.

A location and venue for the April 30th fight card has yet to be announced by the promotion.

Current fights listed for the event include the following:

  • Donald Cerrone vs. Joe Lauzon
  • Cortney Casey vs. Antonina Shevchenko
  • Gina Mazany vs. Shanna Young
  • Francisco Figueiredo vs. Daniel da Silva
  • Mike Breeden vs. Natan Levy
