The undercard features former three-time NCAA Heavyweight Wrestling Champion Jake Rosholt (11-3). Rosholt is riding a four-fight winning streak all by the way of stoppage. He is fighting as a late replacement on a short turn around from a first round submission victory on May 21. His opponent John Ott (8-8) impressed fans with a gutsy effort against Bobby Lashley at the last Titan event.
In other action, Jake’s brother Jared Rosholt (2-0) will make his
national television debut against Kirk Grinlinton (2-2). Rosholt,
the former NCAA tournament finalist, is also fighting on a quick
turn around from a May 21 submission victory.
