Miami, FL, USA, September 6, 2011 – Warrior One MMA® (W-1®) is pleased to announce the exciting addition and new co-main event bout between top-rated Miami lightweight Luis “Baboon” Palomino and his Orlando counterpart Edson “Little Tiger” Berto. This match was originally to happen under the Bellator banner. Through good relations and working closely with many of Bellator’s counterparts, Miami fans will now experience this explosive matchup close to home with W-1. After the disappointing news that Jeff Monson had to withdraw from the bout with Gabriel Gonzaga, Marcus “The Irish Hand Grenade” Davis, moves to main event status as he takes on fellow Massachusetts native and TUF/UFC contender Chuck “Cold Steel” O’Neil. Presented for Fox Sports Net, this nationally televised epic battle promises to live up to the hype as it replaces the former main event. Mr. Gonzaga will now headline the next W-1 event on February 25, 2012.
