Cage Titans is set to kick off the year this weekend with their first show of the year. This one will be their 51st show and it is happening at Plymouth Memorial Hall. The show is taking place Saturday February 5th and the doors open at 5pm and first fight is at 6pm. They have put together a mostly mixed martial arts card with 1 Muay Thai battle to start the night off. If you are looking to get tickets at the door then you won't be able to as this show is completely SOLD OUT. However, you can order the live stream and watch it at home for $25 at the link here. Let me break down the fight card for you all.
143 AM Muay Thai Carter Whitty (0-0 Regiment) vs. Mike Albert (0-0 Skeletor MMA)
145 AM MMA Josh Telemaque (0-1 Go USFC) vs. Chris McDonnell (1-1 SSSF)
The first mma fight will be between Josh Telemaque against Chris MacDonald at 145 lbs. Josh comes from Go USFC and he steps into this fight with an 0-1 record. He lost his first fight by armbar in Round 1. He is still looking for his first taste of victory. His opponent is Chris MacDonald and he trains out of SSSF. He comes into this fight with a 1-1 record with 1 win by decision and 1 loss by decision. This one might be a quick one, we will have to wait and see how it plays out.
145 AM MMA Phil LoCigno (0-1 Sityodtong) vs Danny Wahlburg (0-0 USMMA)
Then at 145 lbs Phil LoCigno will be taking on Danny Wahlburg. Phil trains with Sityodtong and comes into this fight with an 0-1 record. He lost his first battle by decision to Jake Caskey at a previous Cage Titans event. His opponent is Danny Wahlburg and he trains with USMMA. He will be making his amateur debut and being from USMMA I know he will be more than ready. I see this one being a close back and forth battle.
125 AM MMA Jonif Tucker (0-1 Go USFC) vs. Shawn Costello (0-3 SSSF)
Then at 125 lbs Jonif Tucker will be squaring off against Shawn Costello. Jonif trains with Go USFC in New York and steps into this fight with an 0-1 record. He lost his first battle by ko/tko to strikes in Round 1. His opponent is Shawn Costello and he trains out of SSSF. He comes into this fight with an 0-3 record with 1 loss by ko/tko and 2 by submission. Both of these fighters will no doubt be fighting hard for their first amateur victory and 1 of them will be victorious!
145 AM MMA Brandon Demoura (1-1 Soulless) vs Carlos Vespaziano (1-2 Loco Lobo)
Next up is at 145 lbs with Brandon Demoura facing off against Carlos Vespaziano. Brandon trains with Team Soulless with 1 win by ko/tko and 1 loss by decision. He hasn't fought since 2019 so I am sure he is ready to get back into the cage again. His opponent is Carlos Vespaziano and he trains with Loco Lobo. He steps into this fight with a 1-2 record with 1 win by decision. For his losses, he lost 1 by ko/tko and 1 by submission. This is another well matched fight that should be another back and forth battle for the fans.
125 AM MMA Anna Crutchfield (1-2 SBG) vs Erin Johnson (1-0 Lauzon MMA)
Then at 125 lbs Anna Crutchfield will be taking on Erin Johnson. Anna trains with Team SBG and she comes into this fight with a 1-2 record with 1 win by ko/tko. For her losses, she lost 1 by decision and 1 by guillotine. She also lost a Muay Thai battle by decision so she has plenty of experience stepping into this one. Her opponent is Erin Johnson and she trains out of Lauzon MMA. She comes into this fight with a 1-0 record with her first win by armbar submission. She recently had a Muay Thai fight that she won as well. This one should be another good battle where I think Anna will want to keep it standing. If it goes to the ground then I think Erin will have the edge and get the submission.
155 AM MMA Gage Looby (0-8 Go USFC) vs. Brandon Boates (SSSF 0-0)
At 155 lbs Gage Looby will be taking on Brandon Boates. Looby trains with Go USFC out of New York and steps into this fight with an 0-8 record. For his losses, he lost 3 by ko/tko and 5 by submission. He is still looking for his first win. His opponent is Brandon Boates and he trains out of SSSF. He will be making his amateur debut. This is another fight where both fighters will be bringing it hard to get their first win and I am excited for this one!
155 PRO MMA Rob Ovalle (0-0 Lauzon MMA) vs. Jake Hixenbaugh (0-0 Bohn MMA)
In the first pro fight of the night Rob Ovalle will be squaring off against Jake Hixenbaugh. Rob trains with Lauzon MMA and will be making his pro debut. As an amateur he went 5-2 with 2 wins by submission and 3 by decision. His opponent is Jake Hixenbaugh and he trains out of Bohn MMA. He will also be making his pro debut. As an amateur he went 3-5 with 1 ko/tko and 2 by submissions. I see this one being a good stand up war.
140 PRO MMA Jeff Joy (2-0 Loco Lobo) vs Mike Taylor (1-3 Brojo)
At 140 lbs Jeff Joy will be taking on Mike Taylor. Jeff Joy trains with Loco Lobo and comes into this fight with a 2-0 record with both wins by submission. His opponent is Mike Taylor and he trains with Team Brojo. He comes into this fight with a 1-3 record with 1 win by ko/tko. For his losses, he lost 1 by ko/tko and 2 by submission. I see Jeff Joy winning this one by submission but hey it's mma and anything can happen!
155 PRO MMA Zach DiSabatino (8-2 SSSF) vs. Marcus Andrusia (9-18 Lake Area BJJ)

He comes into this fight with a 9-18 record with 4 wins by ko/tko and 5 by submission. For his losses, he lost 7 by ko/tko, 8 by submission and 3 by decision. Not the best match up in my eyes and I see Zach DiSab winning this one by ko/tko to strikes in Round 1.
135 AM TITLE MMA Arthur Mpofu (4-3 SBG) vs. Andrew Valdina (3-1 Lauzon)
At 135 lbs Arthur Mpofu will be fighting Andrew Valdina for the coveted Cage Titans title. Arthur trains with SBG and will be coming into this fight with a 4-3 record with all 4 wins by decision.

He comes into this fight with a 3-1 record with 1 ko/tko and 2 decision victories. His one loss came by a ko/tko to Jake Bagley. This fight is going to be an awesome stand up war I think. This one is going to be worth the price of admission and very well could be fight of the night!
135 PRO INTERIM TITLE MMA Joe Penafiel (8-3 Fusion Xcel) vs Lionel Young (10-17 Citadel)
At 135 lbs Joe Penafiel will be stepping back into the cage to take on Lionel Young for the interim title. Joe trains with Fusion Xcel and comes into this fight with an 8-3 record.

Don't let Lionel's record fool you he has been on a tear winning 3 out of his last 4 fights. Penafiel is also riding a 3 fight win streak so get your popcorn ready when these two guys collide in the cage.
155 PRO TITLE MMA Joe Giannetti (10-4 AKA) vs. Jacob Bohn (10-8 Bohn MMA)
In the main event Joe Giannetti will be fighting Jacob Bohn for the 155 pro title. Giannetti trains with AKA and comes into this fight with a 10-4 record.

For his losses, he lost 4 by ko/tko, 1 submission and 3 by decisions. This is going to be an awesome battle with both of these guys being top ranked. I see this one being a ground battle and could go either way. I can't wait to see this one!
