The Ynares Sports Arena in Pasig City became a hub once again for mixed martial arts recently, as Pacific X-Treme Combat held PXC 35 on Valentine's Weekend. The PXC has made it its home in Manila until its recent move to host it at the Araneta Coliseum.
PXC 35 surely went to the quick and decisive route, as only one match went to the scorecards, while over half of the card only needed just one round to decide a winner, which included the main event.
Reigning PXC Lightweight champion Harris "The Hitman" Sarmiento was successful in retaining his belt, as he made Isaiah Ordiz tap to his kimura before the end of the first round. Sarmiento went with the ground game for his 36th victory, with most expecting him to go toe-to-toe with Ordiz, who suffered his first loss in this third-ever MMA fight. After the victory, he wanted to get another shot at Mark Striegl, who beat him in his last fight before this one.
Meanwhile, PXC Flyweight champion Ale Cali now has an opponent. Louis Smolka survived an early beatdown from Alvin Cacdac, making him tap from a rear naked choke in the third round to chalk up his third straight win.
Other winners include Troy Bantiag, Chuji Kato, Dario Banario, Zebastian Kadestam, Ernesto Montilla, Miguel Mosquera and Glen Ranillo.
PXC 35 would not be possible without the help of the following: Sports 5 and San Mig Strong Ice, E-Games, Fitness First, FHM Philippines, FHM.com.ph, Premiere Condoms, Healthway Agility Philippines, Beer Below Zero, Eden Night Club, Real Sports Radio and Loqal.ph.
