Brandon Bohannon is feeling revitalized and ready to compete at Art of War Cage Fighting 48, which is scheduled for June 6th at the Valley Forge PA Casino. The event promises an exciting lineup with 5 professional fights and 14 total bouts.
The professional card features a light heavyweight title defense by Ian “the Hammer” Alston against Chris Renwick, and a bantamweight clash between “B Mo” Ben Moser and Cole Cameron. Isaac Kent will make his AOW debut against Tyler Kirkpatrick, while “Wild” Mike Kennedy faces Ali Omar in a middleweight bout.
A highly anticipated matchup is the flyweight contest between Christian Carlo and Brandon Bohannon. Both fighters are undefeated as professionals (2-0) and are seen as potential future stars. Carlo, a 25-year-old from New York with extensive Muay Thai and kickboxing experience, holds a significant reach advantage at 5’11” over the 5’4″ Bohannon.
Bohannon has dedicated himself to his preparation, traveling to Thailand multiple times to hone his striking, mental fortitude, and overall spirit. His training takes place at The Forge MMA, the facility owned by UFC veterans Chris and Kyle Daukaus. Kyle Daukaus, who is set to compete on an upcoming UFC card, will be in attendance to corner several fighters on the AOW 48 event.
Reflecting on his upcoming opponent, Bohannon expressed, “I like the fight. This guy is creative and a little funky. I was at one of his fights live before. He’s definitely tough. He wants to win. It’s man against man. I want to break him and I’m sure he wants to do the same to me. I’m not afraid to get in there and let it be known.”
This particular flyweight bout is generating considerable buzz and is a strong contender for fight of the night, and potentially fight of the year, given the caliber of both competitors.
Other notable matchups on the undercard include Justus Cheatom vs. Isaiah Herring, featuring two talented athletes from strong camps. Stephen Dmytryk is highlighted as a promising flyweight prospect. Chris Molina will face AJ Bernieri in what is expected to be an excellent battle. Additionally, Isaac Pantano of Marquez MMA will go head-to-head with Sean Casey of Algeo MMA in what promises to be an explosive encounter.
