Thales Leites to Fight Dean Lister at MFC 23 Main Event

Posted By james Other News

The Maximum Fighting Championship wasted no time in finding a top-notch opponent for the recently signed Thales Leites as another big-name middleweight has joined the fray.

Former Abu Dhabi world champion Dean Lister signed a multi-fight deal last night and immediately agreed to meet Leites at MFC 23: “Unstoppable” on Friday, December 4 at the River Cree Resort and Casino. The bout will be the main event of the fight card broadcast live throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico on HDNet Fights.

“This is an outstanding matchup and I am particularly pleased that both Dean and Thales agreed to fight each other so quickly – no discussion, no delays. Just signed, sealed and delivered,” said MFC Owner/President Mark Pavelich.

Tastes Like Weak Sacue
The reason they both signed so fast is because they both know the fight will just be a high level grappling match with gloves on.
And neither of them have to worry about getting hurt.
They also have to take what money they can get.
Its not like UFC is bangin down either of their doors anymore.
