Shogun Fights

March 30, 2024

The East Coast’s Premier MMA Organization

The brain-child of John Rallo, Shogun fights regularly packs several of the largest venues in the region including Royal Farms Arena in Baltimore, The Theater at MGM National Harbor and Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Ft Lauderdale. A hotbed for celebrities and UFC stars, Shogun events will continue to be a Baltimore mainstay for a time to come.

With a successful (albeit short) MMA career and stint as a celebrity bodyguard under his belt, working with the likes of Tommy Lee and Sylvester Stallone, Rallo focused on opening a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy after receiving his blackbelt from Renzo Gracie himself. During this time he worked towards legalizing MMA in the state of Maryland, eventually passing legalization in one session – an unheard of feat with new legislature. With the arena wide-open, Rallo has spent years promoting shows and building a roster of packed talent, with several fighters going to the UFC, Invicta, Bellator, Dana White’s Contender Series and PFL amongst others.

  • UFC 301 video: Mauricio Ruffy bludgeons Jamie Mullarkey in first round
    by Jed Meshew on May 5, 2024 at 12:01 am

    Mauricio Ruffy and Jamie Mullarkey Mauricio Ruffy just had one hell of a debut at UFC 301. On Saturday night at the Farmasi Arena in Rio de Janeiro, Ruffy faced Jamie Mullarkey in a preliminary lightweight bout, and “One Shot” didn’t quite live up to his nickname, but he did show out, bludgeoning Mullarkey around the cage en route to a first-round stoppage. Ruffy looked good early, lighting Mullarkey up with his dynamic striking attack and earning comparisons to a young Conor McGregor from the commentary team. A pair of nasty right hands stung Mullarkey near the end of the round and then the onslaught truly began with a flying knee and a series of punches the finally crumbled with just 18 seconds left in the round. The win moves the 30-year-old Ruffy to 10-1 in his MMA career, and following the victory he sent a warning to lightweight champion Islam Makhachev, telling the top pound-for-pound fighter in the world that a new king was coming for him. Check out Ruffy’s highlight reel finish below. Mauricio Ruffy was flawless in his UFC debut #UFC301 (via @espnmma) pic.twitter.com/xS1yqPnVS1— MMA Fighting (@MMAFighting) May 4, 2024

  • 2020 Olympic gold medalist Gable Steveson released from WWE
    by Damon Martin on May 4, 2024 at 9:00 pm

    Photo by Jay LaPrete/NCAA Photos/NCAA Photos via Getty Images Gable Steveson has been released from WWE. The 2020 Olympic gold medalist in freestyle wrestling exits the promotion after he opted to explore a future in professional wrestling rather than MMA following his historic run in Tokyo that ended with a viral finish following a last-second score that allowed him to claim the championship. Souces close to WWE confirmed his release to MMA Fighting on Saturday following an initial report from wrestling insider Dave Meltzer. At 21, Steveson was already an NCAA champion at the University of Minnesota but he decided to take a stab at the Olympics following a delayed start to the games due to the global pandemic. Steveson ran roughshod through the heavyweight division in the United States to qualify for the Olympics. He continued his dominant run at the Olympic games where he didn’t allow a single point during his first three matches, blanking his opponents with a combined 23-0 score. In the finals, Steveson took out 2016 Olympic bronze medalist Geno Petriashvili in thrilling fashion to capture gold and become the youngest American to ever achieve that feat. Following his run at the Olympics, Steveson contemplated a future in either professional wrestling or MMA thanks to his deep ties to the sport, which included training with former UFC heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar. Ultimately, Steveson decided to test the waters at WWE where he was signed to an exclusive contract but he still discussed eventually making the move to MMA one day in the future. “I would love to fight,” Steveson told MMA Fighting in 2021. “I’m not scared of fighting. I’m not scared of getting punched. I’m not scared of going out there and losing in front of a big crowd or winning in front of a big crowd. It doesn’t matter to me. I go out there to entertain people and for me, myself, to do something I love. I mean I love fighting and I love WWE. I love both.” While he made brief appearances on WWE television over the next couple of years, Steveson never became a full time performer outside of a few sporadic matches on television. With his release from WWE, Steveson could now potentially make the move into MMA, which is something he continuously teased even when he was training to become a pro wrestler. Most recently, Steveson worked out at Kill Cliff MMA in Florida, the same team responsible for fighters like Shavkat Rakhmonov, Gilbert Burns and Michael Chandler. In fact, Steveson helped Bellator welterweight champion Jason Jackson brush up on his wrestling ahead of his recent win over Ray Cooper III. There’s no word if Steveson plans to explore a future in MMA following his release from WWE but the path is now clear for that to happen if he chooses.
