The fastest growing sport in the Philippines - Mixed Martial Arts - where fighters battle each other within the confines of the Octagon will be seen on IBC 13 at 7:00 p.m. today.

The sport has attracted a large audience among the young and is destined to reach new heights.

Today?s telecast features the matches held some time ago at the jam-packed Metro-Walk with Filipino ring icon Manny Pacquiao as special guest.

Next week the action really sizzles when Fearless Fighting which is the only group that uses the Octagon that is a feature of MMA in the United States teams up with Viva Sports to present a series of action-packed encounters. The fight were held at the spanking new Ynares Recreational Center in the Pasig Capitol compound right opposite the Rotunda on Shaw Boulevard.

Several showbiz stars were at the event and MMA fans were treated to an evening of exciting action in the Fearless Fighting Intensity 8 series that literally rocked the stadium.

The Intensity 8 series will air beginning next Friday. It is also replayed on Viva Prime which is carried by Destiny Cable.
