Ring Girl: 10/24/14
By Nicole Kato
Brysen Bolahao is gearing up for his match during the Man Up & Stand Up and Star Elite Cagefighting this Saturday. He hopes to increase his 5-1-1 record in his bout against Dominic Barretto, and the Waianae Boxing Club fighter from Makaha always brings something new to the table. Bolahao made his way into the MMA circuit two years ago and says he fell in love with the sport ever since. He credits much of his success in the sport to Coach Alonz Kahawai, Carlos Perez, Sam Quel, Kinohi Abaro, Dennis Velasco, Alvin Kanehailua and Jason Bray. “I’d just like to thank each and every one of my supporters,” adds Bolahao … Bouts for the Oct. 24 event begin at 6:30 p.m. at Filcom Center with a main event featuring Jose Barreiro and Justin Burgess in the 155-lbs. pro-MMA match. Also make sure to watch for Dan Ige, who takes on Art Veck. Along with MMA, the organizers put in bouts featuring pankration, kickboxing and SEC MMA titles. Veterans are always fun to watch in the cage, and a couple brand new fighters test their skills, as well. For more info call 372-8513.
