The YOUNGEST CHAMP in ASIA! check out raw footage.

The new! and the youngest Flyweight Champion in Asia! CJ “Golden Boy” De Tomas!!

All the pain and hardworks have finally paid off for the 19yr old CJ De Tomas who convincingly claimed the URCC Flyweight Belt.

The icing on the cake was the fact that he avenged his father’s lost to the same opponent his father fought some years ago.

 It has been a showcase of ground fighting between CJ De Tomas and Hideo Morikawa.
CJ De Tomas is known for being a well rounded fighter or i must say one of the few complete pinoy fighters. In this fight he showcased his wrestling and Jiu-Jitsu skills as he was able to slam Morikawa and most of all defend the infamous leg lock!

In this video CJ mentioned that he was surprised with his cardio and with his Family around especially his dad he didn’t feel tired every round which he said is necessary because fighting Morikawa is like fighting a zombie, he recovers really fast so you really gonna have to take it easy and maintain the energy level. The Champ also thank his teammate who’s been very instrumental to successful leg lock defense.

hypothetical match up

As we all know, Demetrius “The Mighty Mouse” Johnson  successfully defended his belt against John Dodson last Sunday.
Johnson is tied with Jose Aldo with 7 consecutive title defenses. I believe next in line should be the winner between Henry Cejudo and Jussier  Formiga.
Demetrius Johnson the no. 3 “Pound per Pound” champion has fought and won against the high ranking fighters in the flyweight division.
The number 1 and 2 contenders John Dodson and Joseph Benavidez, who happens to be his teammates tried to snatch the belt away but Johnson is simply too much for them.
Now, out of curiosity I was wondering? Flyweight is a natural division for most of our local fighters or Asians fighters in general.
What do you think would be the result if Demetrius Johnson fights one our home grown flyweight fighters?
Obviously, this is just a fantasy match up but who knows?  This fantasy fight could become reality in the near future. I am sure it is bound to happen in the near future.
If I’m going to have to pick a home grown fighter, maybe I would pick someone from the longest running MMA promotion in Asia; Universal Reality Combat Championship (URCC).
At the present time, the first choice would be the current Flyweight champ Hideo Morikawa who’s on a 4th winning streak and recently claimed the URCC Flyweight belt last July at Fontana Convention hall in Pampanga.
The URCC veteran with a record of 8-3 is considered as “home grown fighter” even though he is Japanese national.
 Hideo Morikawa is known for being durable and tough, it would be really exciting see him fight against the world flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson, this may not happen in real life but this hypothetical match up looks interesting!

ABOUT URCC – The Universal Reality Combat Championship is Southeast Asia’s first professional mixed martial arts tournament. We held our first mainstream event in 2002 in front of a sold–out crowd at the Casino Filipino. Ever since 2002, we have always sold out all of our events. The URCC is often referred to as “ASIA’s MOST EXCITING MMA LEAGUE”. This is due to the fact that the league has the highest rates of finishes in the region. Our fighters ALWAYS come to FIGHT!
