‘The MFC 5 scheduled for November in Atlantic City will be landmark event for the MFC!’ states MFC matchmaker Miguel Iturrate. ‘The ‘USA versus JAPAN’ theme is a first, and we are announcing the first ever bout in the ladies’ division! MMA veteran Tara Larosa takes on the tricky Amanda Buckner. Both girls finished 2nd and 3rd at this year’s ADCC World Championships in the Absolute division, both have fought oversees and both are definitely considered among the top women fighters in the world today. This should be a great fight!’

Team Japan will feature MFC veterans Daisuke ’13’ Hanazawa, Kazuki Okubo, Hiroyuki Abe who were here for MFC 3. In Eddie Alvarez, Kurt Pellegrino and Joe Lauzon respectively, they have signed up for tough, exciting fights.’
