The controversial Krazy Horse came to notoriety after an altercation behind the scenes at Pride FC in Japan, when he was choked unconcious by black belt Cristiano Marcello using a snug triangle (rewatch it in the video below).

Recently, the fighter remarked about the occurrence saying he knocked out Wanderlei Silva on the occasion, which provoked a response from Marcello on the internet. In the end, Krazy Horse, who also has a few spells in jail on his record, is still drawing attention through his controversial side, even though he lost five of his last ten fights, while Mello has three in a row.

Also on the card is black belt Ediane “India” Gomes, who faces Marissa Caldwell.

Israel will be overrun by MMA this Tuesday, with the Israel Fighting Championship (IFC) in Tel Aviv, an event put together by a Renzo Gracie student and seasoned ADCC competitor, Haim Gozali.

Speaking of Renzo, the black belt is already in Tel Aviv to attend the show boasting a stellar roster featuring stars like Jeff Monson, Daniel Gracie, Hermes França, Alexandro Ceconi, Charles “Krazy Horse”, Ido Pariente, Shonie Carter, Rameau Sokodjou, Frank Trigg, and Ricco Rodriguez.

Haim, who once lost a fight to Ronaldo Jacaré at Jungle Fight 7, also announced the event will be broadcast over the internet.

“The event features a number of fighters who have been through the UFC and Pride, and we intend for it to be the biggest and most talked about show here, both in the Middle East and the Mediterranean region,” says the black belt. The event can be watched on gofightlive.tv and on Israel’s Channel fight sports channel. Our aim is to pave the way for MMA to grow internationally.
