Sterling Ford to meet James Marohl at CageSport XX! Female pound for pound stars to meet in co-feature!

Welterweight star Sterling Ford will look to continue his recent streak of success when he challenges James Marohl Saturday, July 14 in the main event of “Cagesport XX” at the Emerald Queen Casino in Tacoma, WA.

Hailing from nearby Spokane, WA, Ford has an impressive record of 14-5 with 8 wins by stoppage. The Strikeforce veteran won seven of his last eight bouts, including an impressive unanimous decision victory over Brian McLaughlin at “Strikeforce 17” in July 2011.

Marohl’s rolled through his last four opponents, stopping three of them in two minutes or less. With a professional record of 6-1, the Longview, WA resident is a renowned submission specialist who promoter Brian Halquist gives a ton of credit to for his willingness to take tough fights.

“I tip my hat to Marohl” said the Washington-based MMA and boxing promoter. “Sterling’s fought at an extremely high level and is a top-tier talent. Most fighters want to take their time before moving up the ranks like this, but Marohl is confident that this is the perfect opportunity for him.”

The Ford-Marohl bout is scheduled for three rounds.

Female stars “Slick” Sally Krumdiak of Bellingham, WA and “Little” Patricia Vidonic, a Medford, OR native, battle for supremacy in the three round strawweight co-feature. Both Krumdiak, 9-5, and Vidonic, 5-3, fought at the sport’s highest level. The victor will likely receive a title shot in the near future.

“The co-feature is undoubtedly a main event type of fight,” stated Halquist. “I’m extremely excited for this match-up because Krumdiak and Vidonic are two of the world’s best.”

Tacoma’s very own Meisha Tate, a former world champion, Female Fighter of the Year and CageSport veteran, will be in attendance. Tate, 12-3, is available for a meet and greet, photo ops and autographs throughout the evening for all ticket holders.

Molina of Bridgeton, New Jersey is 1-0 with one knockout as he stopped Desi Williams in ninety-three seconds in his pro debut on January 28^th in the same Resorts ring.

What’s Ironic about the situation is the LaManna is the licensed manager of Molina.

“I am looking forward to this big night as it is exciting to be competing both inside and outside the ring on the same card”, said LaManna.

“I am totally focused on what I need to do to get my ninth victory inside the ring but also it will be a double satisfying that Moses can get a great victory and we can accomplish this on the same card in front of a large audience”

“With a win, I am looking to get back in September and fight for the IBF World Youth championship and I am happy with my progress and I would like to thank Jimmy Burchfield for providing me this unique opportunity.”

“I would like to also thank my promoter Vincent M. Ponte and Gulfstream Promotions for his continued support in my career”
