Guam MMA firm links up with San Mig

MANILA—Guam’s premier mixed martial arts events company, Pacific X-Treme Combat, has linked up with San Mig Strong Ice as it makes its debut in the Philippines on June 11 at the Newport Performing Arts Theater of Resorts World Manila.

Fighters from Brazil, Korea, California, Florida, Hawaii, Saipan, Guam and the Philippines see action in seven fights that will showcase PXC’s strength.

Filipino-American UFC fighter Brandon Vera is expected to attend the event.

The Guam outfit’s tie-up with San Mig Strong Ice, according to PXC promoter and general manager EJ Calvo, is perfect for young, aggressive and adventurous individuals.

“San Mig Strong Ice is bold and strong, much like our shows and the MMA scene in general,” said Calvo. “We both share the same market demographic of young, aggressive and adventurous individuals.”

With almost 2,000 seats for the show, Calvo is confident that PXC’s strategic partnership with Strong Ice gives the event the added muscle to succeed.

The Philippine premiere will be PXC’s 24th staging since it launched the event in Guam and the Micronesian region in 2004.
