Two of Valor’s top clients will face off for PRIDE in the biggest United States fight card of the year this Saturday in Las Vegas at the Thomas & Mack Center.  After much deliberation on who Butterbean would face, Sean O’Haire stepped up and will fight Butterbean in an MMA Match, with hours to spare before the fight is to begin.  O’Haire, a former K-1 Grand Prix Champion will take on the formidable Eric “Butterbean” Esch who has established himself in the Mixed Martial Arts world with 6 wins, 5 by submission, proving he is not out there just looking for the big knockout.

PRIDE will hold what will be one of the biggest shows in the world this year featuring some of the top names in MMA with Fedor Emelianenko vs. Mark Coleman, Kevin Randleman, Vitor Belfort, Josh Barnett, Robbie Lawler, Mauricio Rua, Dan Henderson and many more!

Valor is very well represented on this show and will continue to showcase it’s fighters on the biggest stages in the world. However, is it odd to have 2 Valor Fighters facing each other on one blockbuster show?  “When you represent a group of icons like Valor Fighting & Management does, this will happen, and it will happen more and more as times goes on,” Valor Owner Rick Bassman said earlier. “We want to get our clients the top fights on the top shows around the world, and this is just another example of that.” With Valor’s impressive client list such as Butterbean, Sean O’Haire, Bob Sapp, Tank Abbott, Kimo, Erin Toughill, Ruben “Warpath” Villareal, Chris Brennan, Dan “The Beast” Severn and Dennis “Superman” Hallman to name a few, it is easy to se why Valor is quickly establishing itself as the place to go for the top MMA talent in the world.
