Rage in the Cage makes its grand return on May 23, with guest appearances from several UFC legends

Rage in the Cage makes an ambitious return on May 23. Live from the Desert Diamond Casino Event Center in Tucson, Arizona, fans will be treated to a showcase of the sport’s next big names when RITC 6 is broadcast worldwide on FIGHT.TV.

The event signifies a highly anticipated revival of the legendary Arizona-based combat sports promotion, whose last show was almost three years ago. Founded by Roland Sarria in 1998, Rage in the Cage is one of MMA’s longest-running companies. Unlike other major outlets, the organization presents mixed martial arts, Muay Thai, and kickboxing, providing viewers with a mix of flavours to devour over the course of each show.

For some time, Rage in the Cage has been at a standstill. However, hoping to force its way back into the public eye, RITC has sought the help of PRIDE veteran Shannon ‘The Cannon’ Ritch, who promises to return the brand to its glory days.

Those making the trip down to the Desert Diamond Casino Event Center for the fights will be granted entry at 6:00 pm, with the first bout of the night getting underway at 7:00 pm.

Rage in the Cage’s grand return will be met with a monumental 17 MMA bouts and a further 6 Muay Thai clashes, so viewers both attending the show or sitting at home watching along on FIGHT.TV will have no shortage of violence and potential viral moments in the cage. Alongside the monstrous 21-fight event, several MMA and UFC legends will make appearances, with Don Frye and Mark Coleman blessing fans with their presence to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their all-timer war from UFC 10.

Get ready for a thrilling night highlighting emerging MMA stars, special guests, and meet-and-greets, all while paying tribute to the rich history of Arizona’s combat sports scene.
