REDLINE VPX Partners with SFX in “Undefeated” Grand Prix

Redline VPX and Project 9-6-1 partners with SportFight X to present “Undefeated” and the 2010 REDLINE 155 Grand Prix

Atlanta, GA- SportFight X (Xtreme) stepped into Atlanta’s sports scene spotlight when in January of this year, attempted to push Mixed Martial Arts into a new demographic by promoting a show at Woodruff Arts Center’s Symphony Hall. An effort met with bias and prejudice from ASO patrons and the backlash created caused swift cancellation of the event with the signed commitment dropped without any further explanation from ASO officials.

On March 26, SportFight X rebounded in another city landmark, the Georgia World Congress Center’s Thomas Murphy Ballroom. The event dubbed “Beatdown in the Ballroom” nearly sold out its 1,800 seat capacity as spectators piled in to see the 10,000 dollar finals of the Redline Grand Prix and proved (with a few minor adjustments including adding giant projection screens to both sides of the venue) GWCC is a worthy venue and new home for SportFight X.

With recent signing of major sponsors Project 9-6-1 and Redline VPX, SportFight X has announced Saturday July 10th it will bring back the popular professional tournament series with an all-new roster of hungry competitors and a notable variance in the plot. The 2010 Redline 155 Grand Prix will feature eight of the toughest up and coming fighters, hand picked from various regions of the country and all share one common trait, they are all UNDEFEATED!

A few of the high caliber contestants recruited for the tournament thus far are; Eric Kreigermeier out of Chicago, IL an Atlanta native who is a brand new father and holds a 4-0 record. Jacob Allman an all-state wrestler out of Charlotte, NC sports an impressive 8-0 fight resume. Troy Dollar of Tennessee enters the tournament 7-0 and is an expert in Kickboxing and a purple belt Brazilian Jui Jitsui. EJ Brooks also a standout from the Midwest comes in 6-0. Full line up to be announced soon.

Headlining the fight card will be Kennesaw entrepreneur and elite mixed martial artist Ethan Garrison, co-owner of Iron Clutch Fitness in Marietta and Roswell. Garrison also undefeated in all of his previous eight fights recently won first place in the world class Pan American Jui Jitsu tournament in California. He will be facing his toughest opponent to date.

Also on the card is Georgia’s fastest rising and also undefeated star Dhiego Lima. After quick destruction of a far more experienced opponent in his SportFight X debut in March, the 20-year-old Lima has signed a three-fight deal with the promotion and has goals of a championship run in the near future.

Another anticipated match up is the highly touted Roger “The Leprechaun” Carrol of North Carolina who holds recent notable wins over Georgia standouts Tim Stout and Clint Hester, facing off against the experienced and ever dangerous George Allen of Atlanta.  Allen has seen wars with some of MMA’s elite including taking UFC’s Keith Jardine a full three rounds to a decision.

Byron Bloodworth, Andre Caminera and many others are set to round off what looks to be another outstanding card put together by Southeastern MMA's Ultimate Proving Ground, SportFight X. Card Subject to change.

Other Sponsors for the event include Brawl Nutrition, Iron Clutch Fitness, MusclePharm, US Airforce, ATL Nightlife, Sponsored Fan Sports Management, Heidari Plank & Associates, Omega Attire, Discount Nutrition, Fitness Depot,  O'kelly Promotions and J Skye Events
