Erion Zekthi and Horacio Escobar meet in a battle of top bantamweight contenders in the main event. Zekthi, known to fans as “The Albanian One,” tries to improve to 4-1 with a third straight impressive win in the Shamrock FC cage. Hot on the heels of a first-round submission win, Escober looks to climb to 6-2, with all of his victories coming via stoppage.

In the co-main event, top kickboxing contenders Darryl Cobb, a vet of Bellator and Strikeforce, and red-hot Shahriar Zolfagahari throw down in a battle of heavy hitters. BJJ specialist Garrett Wells looks for his third straight submission victory over challenger Kevin Mueller in lightweight action.

Professional flyweight prospect Kris Craig tries to climb to 2-0 over Jason Stevenson, who recently capped off a long amateur career by sharing the cage with top prospect Jesse Martinelli.
