MANILA, Philippines ? Two mixed martial arts (MMA) fighters hungry for a rematch will see action in the Colt 45 Universal Reality Combat Championship (URCC) XIX Collision. Headlining the fight card is URCC's longest-running pinweight champ Roy "Punisher" Docyogen who will defend his title against contender Alvin "Sindikato" Ramirez. The fight will be on April 2 at the World Trade Center in Pasay City.
The undefeated Docyogen, who holds an 8-0 slate, is confident he will stay on top. "I'm ready," the Lakay MMA pride said. Docyogen edged out Ramirez via unanimous decision in their clash held November 2009.
