ROAD FC 048 MATCH ADDED

MIDDLEWEIGHT LA IN-JAE VS JEON UH-JIN

ROAD Fighting Championship announces two matches added to ROAD FC 048 which will take place at the Wonju Gymnasium in the ROAD FC hometown of Wonju, South Korea on July 28, 2018. In a women's atomweight match, Lee Ye-Ji returns to face Mika Arai, and La In-Jae takes on Jeon Uh-Jin at middleweight.





La In-Jae vs Jeon Uh-Jin

La In-Jae (7-0-1, Team Korea MMA) is a dominant wrestler with powerful striking who has worn down opponent after opponent, going undefeated. His only draw was a brutal battle with Dong Xin that had the crowd gasping with every punch. Since then, La has earned decisions over Cha In-Ho and Lim Dong-Hwan and shown that he can dismantle whatever game plan is brought to him with grinding precision.

Jeon Uh-Jin (3-3, Monster House) started in MMA as a tough as nails prodigy who quickly rose to the top of the middleweight division with impressive performances. He eared a shot at former ROAD FC Middleweight Champion Riki Fukuda in Japan, but his early title opportunity was ended by KO. Undeterred, Jeon took his military leave so he could refocus. Fans will expect to see his impressive striking and grappling back in action.

This middleweight match between homegrown fighters La In-Jae and Jeon Uh-Jin deepens the pool of the division, and will be a clash of two brutal wrestlers.

Middleweight Title Unification Cha Jung-Hwan vs Choi Young

Finally the rematch for the unification of the Middleweight Championship between Champion Cha Jung-Hwan and Interim Champion Choi Young will take place. The first match between Cha and Choi was at ROAD FC 035. Later Choi was injured and unable to defend the belt, so Cha faced Kim Hoon and won a 3-round war which earned him the Interim Middleweight Championship title. The highly anticipated rematch will be full of emotion and aggression.

Also on ROAD FC 048, impressive prospect Hwang In-Su will face veteran Yang Hae-Jun. Hwang's first year run saw him knock out all opponents in the first round, including successively more experienced Park Jung-Kyo and Kim Nae-Chul. Impressive grappler and excellent striker Yang is expected to be the challenge to see if Hwang can last longer and show what he really knows. The ROAD FC middleweight division is getting interesting!
