Fight for It 21 returns to the Grady Cole Center in Uptown Charlotte, NC, on Saturday, July 27th, bringing an electrifying lineup of combat sports. One of the evening’s must-see matchups is the professional MMA showdown between Josh Doster and Jake Valdes in the 170lb division.
Josh Doster, representing North Carolina, is stepping into the cage with a professional record of 0-1. Despite a rocky start, Doster is determined to turn things around, leveraging his strong amateur background where he held a record of 4-2. Known for his knockout power and striking skills, Doster has finished half of his amateur victories by TKO in the first round, making him a formidable opponent.
Opposing Doster is Jake Valdes, also known as “Smooth Operator.” Valdes is making his professional debut, but his amateur record of 4-1 speaks volumes about his capabilities.
