ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. — Sept. 5, 2012 — In exciting news for east coast mixed-martial-arts
(MMA) fighters
and fans, Cage Fury Fighting Champions (CFFC) is proud to announce
their expansion into Delaware and their new association with Dover Downs
Hotel & Casino.
A
regular fixture in Atlantic City, N.J., CFFC has quickly emerged as the
prominent source of exciting MMA action on the East Coast since Rob
Haydak, Jr. took over
the company in 2010. Haydak, who will be honored later this year for
being selected as the Promoter of the Year by the New Jersey MMA Hall of
Fame, is excited about the new partnership.
"In
order for CFFC to solidify its position as the premier organization in
the East, we consistently explore and look for associations that are
mutually beneficial,”
said Haydak, President of CFFC. “Dover Downs Hotel & Casino is a
first-class venue with world-class management and staff."
Fresh
off a successful show on Aug. 24, CFFC was given the opportunity to
make a quick turn around and produce Dover Downs Hotel & Casino’s
first ever professional
MMA event. "Even on such short notice, we will deliver on Oct. 13 and
make our presence felt in Delaware,” continued Haydak. “We're looking
to build a permanent home at Dover Downs Hotel & Casino for a very,
very long time."
CFFC
management consists of the industry leaders in business, television,
and marketing along with some of the best minds in matchmaking. With
this combination,
CFFC plans to deliver the best show possible with the highest standards
in fights, production, and fan satisfaction on Oct. 13, 2012.
“We
are very excited to host the first professional MMA event in the
history of Dover Downs Hotel & Casino,” said Ed Sutor, President and
CEO. “We could not ask
for a better organization to work with than Cage Fury Fighting
Champions out of New Jersey, who always put on topnotch events.”
"Ten
minutes into my conversation with Ed (Sutor), I knew we shared a very
similar vision and understanding of what both parties expect,” said
Haydak. “We will deliver
world-class MMA to Dover Downs Hotel & Casino guests."
Tickets
for the Oct. 13 event go on sale today at noon for $55 to $125 and may
be purchased by calling VIP Services at 800-711-5882 or visiting
