Showdown Fights presents “Breakout”
Jan 28, 2012 Comments
(PRESS RELEASE) -- Orem, UT (USA) – Live from the UCCU Center on
the campus of Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah Showdown Fights
presents “Breakout” February 24, 2012 at 6:30pm. Josh
Burkman (21-9) takes on Utah’s rising star, Koffi Adzitso
(17-8). The crafty UFC veteran Burkman has refocused on his career
since his marriage late in 2011, and looks to return to his winning
ways against Adzitso. As one of the most athletic fighters to set
foot into the Showdown Fights cage Burkman will surely be tested by
the young upstart Koffi whom he used to coach in High School
Football.
Koffi Adzitso moved to the United States from Togo in Africa as a young boy. One of nine kids, and the only one in his family involved in athletics, he looks to make his families name famous through Mixed Martial Arts. Koffi posted recent wins over UFC Veteran, Kevin Burns and shares a win with Burkman over Brandon Melendez.
Also featured on this stacked card Salt Lake City’s own Sean
O’Connell (10-4) returns to action against the always-tough
Trevor
Carlson (6-1) from Elko, NV. Jordan
Clements (9-1) takes on Jeremy Horn
protégé Dave Castillo (13-4) in a lightweight battle that could
easily be a main event. Former BYU Football star Jan
Jorgensen (1-0) looks to stay unbeaten in the Showdown Fights
cage when he takes on Aaron Magro (2-0) in his toughest test to
date. Steven Sharp (27-14) looks to cut through the ever-strong
Mario
Espinoza (15-7) in what will be an all out war. In a battle of
unbeaten fighters Ohio’s own Tim Ruberg
(9-0) face off with Utah’s undefeated rising star Jason South
(8-0) in a bout that may catapult the winner to the next level.
