Lou Neglia's Ring of Combat was the highlight of the MMA and Sports Extravaganza Saturday night at the Taj Mahal in Atlantic City.  As always, the show featured great MMA action by fighters who are willing to give their all in the cage.

Kim Couture, ex-wife of MMA legend Randy Couture, made her ROC debut but was beaten by newcome Munah Holland who showed great skills in her stand up game.  Holland is definitely someone in women's MMA to keep an eye on.

The main event feature a war between John Cholish and Rich Moskowitz.  It was a back and forth battle with some great scrambles on the ground, but in the third Cholish submitted Moskowitz with a neat reverse triangle.

I had the pleasure of commentating the show for the Go Fight Live broadcast and was honored to be joined at various times by Chuck Zito, Dan "The Beast" Severn and Jim Miller.

All three guys did a great job on the mic and it was an awesome experience working with them.

We had Shawn Baran and Kevin Wuchter at the show also, and they got some great pics of the Expo and fights.  Check out Kevin's pics here:  Kevin Wuchter.
