A rare heavyweight fight has been added to main card of Battlefield 2 taking place on Saturday, August 21st at the River Rock Casino in Richmond, B.C. Popular Brawler Tristan King (2-0), who fights out of Revolution fight Team in Langley B.C., takes on Adam Santos (1-0) of Marganti Jiu-Jitsu in Richmond, in what should be a clash of heavy hitters looking for a big knockout.
