Evolution II: Mayhem in Minneapolis

“Evolution II: Mayhem in Minneapolis” event takes place April 24 at the Target Center in Minneapolis.

Cage Fighting Xtreme is promoting the show, which features one Minnesota fighter in all. But expect a strong hometown crowd that will make the fights entertaining for all MMA fans.

The card is stacked with former UFC fighters.

Brock Larson is looking to redeem himself after losing his last two fights in the UFC, (Brian Foster & Mike Pierce). Brian Green has suffered a loss to Chad Reiner in his last fight.

Drew Fickett has hit a speed bump in his career has lost his last five fights. He needs this win bad against Noble. Fickett was cut by the UFC after a win.

Jeff Monson and Travis Wiuff, with a combined total of 100 fights under their belts should be a good fight. Monson is on a two fight win streak defeating Francisco Nonato, and John Brown. Wiuff has suffered a loss to Mike Kyle in his last fight and is looking to rebound.

The full card includes:

• Jeff Monson (33-9) vs. Travis Wiuff (59-14)
• Colin McKee (8-2) vs. Dave Menne (44-16-2)
• Drew Fickett (35-6) vs. Derrick Noble (26-12-1)
• Shane Olsen (2-0) vs. Yoko Takahashi (14-10-3)
