The ultimate warriors... "KING OF THE CAGE 4" GLADIATORS
Action-packed, "No-Holds-Barred" competition Hosted by Don "The Dragon" Wilson and Eddie Bravo, announced by the voice of mixed-martial arts, Mr. Bruce Buffer, and with justice enforced by referee Larry Landless, "King of the Cage" shows that the best keep getting better! With fifteen matches in all during a furious evening of fighting, this card can be called nothing else but "King of the Cage: Gladiators." See a match of pure heart that personifies the sport as Muay Thai specialist Marvin Eastman goes toe to toe with Memphis wrestler Quinton Jackson. See a kickboxing clinic as superstar Duane Ludwig absolutely dominates streetfighter Shad Smith. See the Lion's Den Tony Galindo set a "King of the Cage" knockout record in stunning fashion versus Curt Rojo. And in a match of East against West, Todd Medina returns to the Cage against Pride superstar---Japan's Daijiro Matsui (with the legendary Kazushi Sakuraba in his corner in a rare American appearance). And this is just the beginning, as the fight card is loaded with warriors such as United States Olympic Wrestler Roger Neff, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Blackbelt Fabiano Iha, and Combat Grappling's master tactician Tedd Williams. From Jiu-Jitsu to wrestling, street-fighting to kick-boxing, all styles are encouraged at "King of the Cage." Also included are exclusive pre-fight interviews, as well as post-fight interviews with the fighters done by Stephen Quadros.
And if you take a peek outside the cage, among the jam-packed house of fans, you're also sure to see such warriors as Frank Shamrock, Ken Shamrock, Mark Kerr, Bas Rutten, Jean-Jacques Machado, Ricco Rodriguez, and Oleg Taktarov. It doesn't matter which way you put it, "King of the Cage" continues to knockout the competition.
