AFTER their debut fight in the United States recently, Yaw-Yan Fighting Challenge Championship (YFCC) junior lightweight champion Renan “Limbas” Noblefranca and unbeaten Jordan “Labuyo” Balcita will visit the famed Team Alpha Male MMA gym in Sacramento, California on Friday.
Balcita and Noblefranca’s visit in the famed Ultimate Fighting Championships (UFC) fighters gym will become part of their training and at the same time a chance to promote the Filipino authentic martial arts of Yaw-Yan ArDigma.
Team Alpha Male is home to some of UFC’s top prospects and contenders such as Urijah Faber, Chad Mendes and Joseph Benavidez.
According to Balcita, he and Noblefranca will be having stand-up sparring sessions against some of Alpha Male’s fighters.
“We are very excited because we will be sparring with a different kind of fighters and we know that UFC fighters are very tough so we will do our best to impress them,” said Balcita, who defeated Sergio Ramirez in his debut fight in Vallejo, California recently. Noblefranca also won in his debut fight in the US against Kenny Epstein. /CORRESPONDENT DALE G. ROSAL
