Maverick MMA 22 Preview – Welterweight Gold On The Line In The Main Event

Interview with promoter Willy Sisca below


Maverick MMA 22 goes down this Saturday at Wind Creek Casino Event Center in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Promoter Willy Sisca joins me to preview the card, including the main event which could have big implications for Jimmy Drago.

“Jimmy Drago, he’s on the brink, I would say he’s one of the top prospects in the country. He’s one of the biggest ticket sellers in the sport. The kid’s just got everything dialed in now. He headlined Maverick 16, two years ago, had a great finish there. Has reeled off a couple of wins since and this is an awesome title fight. I’m happy to have at the top of this awesome, big time casino show at Wind Creek.” 

The March 25 event will be broadcast live via spectationsports.com.
