Fight
Night Entertainment, in conjunction with the West Coast
Fight Club, presented Round VII of their Fight Night
series on Fri, March 26th, returning to the Bellingham
Sportsplex. Entitled "Metamorphosis", the show
featured 8 MMA fights from some very game fighters with
great striking, wrestling, and Brazilian Jiu-jitsu all on
display for the large crowd. The Fight Night series
continues to improve upon past shows by ramping up their
production with a major sound & light display, a pro DJ, and
big screen projection of the fights so that every seat in
the house is a great one.
Another
hallmark of the Fight Night Series is the special guests
that they bring in to interact with the fans such as MMA
celebs Randy Couture, Keith Jardine, and Urijah Faber in
past shows. For Round VII, UFC Light Heavyweight star
Thiago Silva, was on hand to meet and greet the crowd.

The main event of the evening was a fight to determine who would take home the vacant 155lb
Championship Belt. Jonathan Agnew representing the
Suitela Fight Club and Jason Monroy of the Combat Sports
Academy put on a great back and forth performance. Both had crisp striking and capable ground games. In the end, though, Jonathan Agnew pulled out the armbar submission win and was so excited he jumped up onto the cage, over the top, down the other side, through the crowd, up into the bleachers and headed out of the
arena! He immediately came back in to shake some hands and pick up his
prize... the 155 lb Championship belt!
The
next Fight Night "Round VIII" Caged Warriors is
scheduled for June 11th at the Nooksack River Casino in
Deming, WA. For
