An entire day dedicated to MMA in Rome. On Saturday, March 14th, from 10 am to 11 pm, the Palatorrino will host a real ‘marathon’ celebrating the ‘octagon’, with both federation competitions and professional bouts. The event, organized by Ars Martis and the historic ‘Aurora MMA’ led by Lorenzo Borgomeo, will unfold in three distinct moments: the first Lazio Regional Federkombat Championship, the Cage Warriors Academy card, and the professional evening of Shock FC.
The day kicks off at 10 am with the first Lazio Regional Federkombat Championship, a fundamental step for the regional movement and a proving ground for new athletes. It is a historic moment for Lazio MMA, offering a concrete opportunity to showcase talent in front of federation coaches.
From 4 pm, the spotlight moves to Cage Warriors Academy 21, bringing some of the most prominent names in the Italian scene into the cage. The standout name is Daniel Bucur (team Pedersoli), the current world middleweight champion, who will fight for the CWA 84 kg title against Seif Mohamed (Argea). Bucur is a technical reference in the category, with international experience, physicality, and rhythm management. Another title will be contested at 74.9 kg between Simone Ali (Ars Martis) and Francesco Marconi (Amabili). Ali is one of the emerging faces in the Roman scene, already part of the Italian MMA National Team.
The third segment is the professional card, headlined by Shock FC in its second edition. Matches will be three rounds of five minutes each. Among those fighting in the cage will be Ruben Vinci and Elez Guri at catchweight 62 kg, a clash between two athletes seeking recognition. Valentino Greco will face Fabio Condidorio (70.3 kg), while Roman fighter Valerio Luminari will take on Alex Antonicelli (catchweight 62 kg), a match that promises fireworks.
The level of the event is also measured by the presence of numerous athletes from the Italian MMA National Team: in addition to Bucur and Ali, Francesco Calandra, Giovanni Parmentola, Andrea Berti, Michael Noris, Eros Martinati, and Ilia Sinani will also enter the cage. Among the most significant matches: Riccardo Fresilli vs Francesco Calandra (61.2 kg), with Calandra bringing international experience and solidity. Also: Giovanni Parmentola vs Erik Voci (65.8 kg), Graziano Gianni Jones vs Michael Noris (77 kg), Ilia Sinani vs Andrea Berti (79 kg), and Eros Martinati vs Giovanni Anania (74.9 kg).
“On March 14th, Palatorrino will not only host fights, but also the present and future of MMA in Lazio. We have created a day that brings together the regional grassroots with international titles, concluding with the great spectacle of professionalism presented by Shock FC,” declare the organizers.
