Headlining the event, Giacomo “The Boar” Michelis will step into the main event spotlight for the first time as he takes on Turkey’s Sado Ucar.
Ucar brings a prodigious finishing rate to the cage, having finished 17 of his 20 professional victories, while Michelis will turn back the Austrian-based Turk by claiming victory on home soil.
The co-main event will see a battle between Ireland and Italy, as Ryan Shelley steps into the cage to take on Simone D’Anna in a battle between two rising featherweight contenders.
The card will also see Paddy McCorry return to action as he faces debuting Shuki Farage in a 195-pound catchweight contest.
Italian fan-favourites Nicolo Soli, Khadim Dia, Nicolas Leblond and Giuseppe Mastrogiacomo are also set to feature.
