Ten Toes Up Fight Entertainment heads to Sandusky, Ohio this weekend, as Warrior Nation Fight Series 34: Sandusky Showdown takes place at the Erie County Fairgrounds.

On tap is a 12-bout amateur lineup, featuring veterans and newcomers alike.

In the main event, Brad Bloom (2-1) will look for his third win, as he competes for the first time since 2012. He dropped that bout to Nick Foxhuber via submission. He has one win each via knockout and submission. Bloom is set to face 18-year-old Tristian Huston (0-1), who came up short via split decision in his debut bout against Travis Gillespie at WNFS 33 in October.

Also on tap is a bout featuring a pair of lightweights with 37 combined bouts, as Brandon Odom (11-12) takes on Treg Wells (7-7). Odom has won three of four including a first round submission over Matt Matlock at IT Fight Series 39 in December. Wells was once 7-3 after winning six straight bouts, but he has now dropped four in a row and is sitting with a .500 record. His most recent outing was a submission loss to Jake Miller at IT Fight Series 38 in November.

A female bout is also set, as Diamond Long (2-1) takes on Erin Michaels (1-0). Long won her first two bouts via TKO before being submitted by Chelsea Faulder at a Primetime MMA event in November. Michaels submitted Mandy Downing in just 56 seconds in her debut at RISE Fighting IV in October.

“It’s quite an entertaining event, especially for people who may not think they’d like mixed martial art fights,” event promoter Domenic Bentz told the Sandusky Register.

“There’s not too many events like this,” trainer Chad Catri added. “It’s not just about the competition, it’s about what we teach and how you can use it in real life. Come support local fighters, see a cool event and learn about the sport.”
