Seasons Beatings! MMA Action at the Palace of Auburn Hills This Saturday

(PRESS RELEASE) -- This Saturday, December 18, at the Palace of Auburn Hills, Donofrio Entertainment in association with Impact Fight League and Palace Sports and Entertainment will present "SEASONS BEATINGS" at the world-famous Palace of Auburn Hills.

A night of elite mixed martial arts, "SEASONS BEATINGS" will feature fifteen full-contact amateur MMA fights featuring the best from around the Great Lakes area, including five title fights.

The five-round super heavyweight main event will pit Traverse City, Michigan's Shaun Mirjavadi, a Brazilian Jiu-jitsu specialist with a record of 6-0, taking on Northern Michigan's equally undefeated (6-0) giant (6'4", 260 lbs) Keith Sterly in a super fight for the Impact Fight League Heavyweight Championship.

"This will be the best MMA show Michigan has seen in quite some time," said an enthusiastic Donofrio. ""It's not often you see two super heavy weights with perfect records enter the cage so early in their careers. These two are true warriors who need to prove which one is the best in Michigan - and we're going to find out who it is!"
