Officials from MCC reported, “Bixler, who is originally a product of Team Miletich, was excited for the opportunity.  He has been already training at Alliance (San Diego) with UFC fighters Brandon Vera, Jeremy Stephens, Joe Brammer, and WEC Champion Dominck Cruz, so he is in shape and ready to go.  This fight will be amazing, and we are pleased that we could find a worthy opponent who was willing to step up on short notice.  The fans will definitely appreciate this match up.”
