The debut CAGE WARS MMA event was held last night inside the Shrine Nile Temple in Mountlake Terrace just North of Seattle, to a packed house. 12 amateur MMA bouts & 1 kids grappling match took place, and all provided plenty of action.

Three title fights finished off the night. In the first of the these, Luis Contreras out of Tri City MMA defeated Arlington Kickboxing's Christian Ortiz via a first round guillotine choke to capture the Cage Wars MMA 125 lb belt.

Next up, Johnathon Moore of the Full Circle Fight Club out of Bremerton controlled C3's Rob Dyer for all five rounds to take home the Cage Wars MMA 145 lb belt. 

The main event was the Cage Wars MMA Women's 135 lb Title fight between Alderwood MMA's Sara Weeks and BJJ of Olympia's Sarah D'Alelio. While D'Alelio was able to land a number of shots in the bout that mostly stayed on the feet, it was definitely Weeks fight as she effectively jabbed, punched, and kicked her way to win each round, while staying away from D'Alelio's dangerous ground game.
