2018-04-11 07:00
ROAD FC 047 RETURNS TO BEIJING, CHINA
FOUR MATCHES ADDED, INCLUDING FORMER $1 MILLION TOURNAMENT COMPETITORS
ROAD Fighting Championship announces four more bouts on ROAD FC 047 which will take place at the 20,000-seat Cadillac Arena in Beijing, China on May 12, 2018. Eight lightweight fighters are featured on Part 1, with many who were previous competitors in the ROAD FC $1 Million Lightweight Tournament.
Baoshe Riguleng vs Bruno Miranda
Baoshe Riguleng (1-1, Yunnan Kunli Boji) started martial arts with traditional wrestling as a child, then scored multiple national Sanda titles, won gold at the East Asian Games, and tacked on a successful kickboxing career. He transitioned to MMA in 2009 briefly, and was expected to make his comeback with ROAD FC's entry to China 2 years ago. Bruno Miranda (10-3, Tiger Muay Thai) is a 4-year mainstay of ROAD FC who has become a fan favorite with his furious KO style and his contrasting friendly demeanor. In the $1 Million Tournament International Trials, he suffered a shocking KO by underdog Nandin-Erdene, but rebounded with a first-round KO of Ki Won-Bin in a reserve match.
Baoshe's return to MMA is highly anticipated, but he'll have to get past gatekeeper Miranda first, and that's a huge bang of a welcome back!

The 2018 Openweight Grand Prix will begin on ROAD FC 047. French Kickboxing legend Jerome Le Banner will face China's behemoth Sanda champion Wu Lahan. American Chris Barnett will bring his exciting Taekwondo style against the massive judoka kickboxer from Romania, Sandu Lungu.
