MECA World Vale Tudo 7 Card Defined The card for the biggest NHB show currently running in Brazil is finally set. Despite some previous cards published on the Internet, the event’s card was only finalized in the past few days and it promises to bring several new talents to the NHB scene. Promoters Rudimar Fedrigo and Jorge Guimaraes had to deal with several issues to put the card together, from injuries to a limited budget going through TV issues, but they managed to put together nine fights for the seventh edition of MECA. The event is scheduled for November 8th, as always in the city of Curitiba, with the fights starting at 9 PM Brazilian time, being broadcast live in Brazil on Pay-Per-View. Among the young fighters who will be appearing in the event, some deserve a close look as they might make some noise on the international circuit in the near future; Alex Gaze is a Muay Thai fighter from Rio de Janeiro with great striking skills who will be making his MECA debut; Royler Gracie Black Belt and current Chute Boxe training partner Cristiano Marcello will be making his return to MECA, but this time with improved striking skills; and Mauricio "Shogun" will make his NHB debut trying to follow in the footsteps of his brother, Murilo Ninja. This show will not only feature exciting young newcomers on the rise, but some tough veterans will be gracing the ring in Curitiba as well… like BTT member Haroldo "Cabelinho", IVC veteran Claudionor Fontinelli, Chute Boxe’s Silvio Urutum, and his teammate and K-1 veteran Nilson de Castro. With all those ingredients, MECA 7 promises to deliver the action. Stay tuned to FCF for a preview of the event in the near future. Here’s the complete card* (the sequence of the fights is not yet set):
