Gorjan “Gogo” Slaveski returns to the squared circle after a two-year absence. He previously held the welterweight belt, but was stripped of it after he chose to fight in a karate league.

The novice certainly has the stamina to go the distance, but comes up short on reach in this bout, five inches less than her opponent. “Killa Bee” arrives at The Buffalo Chip with four triumphs under the belt in eight attempts. Only of of her wins resulted in a TKO; the result has boiled down to a decision.
