Matt Secor is headlining CES MMA’s debut in New York when he fights Renee Forte on Friday, May 4.
Secor likes the stylistic match-up that Forte poses. He feels he has advantages in both the stand-up and Jiu-Jitsu aspects. He’ll also be the much bigger man on fight night, as Forte is generally a lightweight moving up to welterweight.
Most importantly, Secor recognizes Forte’s name value as someone who’s coming off a four-fight UFC stint. Forte went 1-3 in the promotion, was released, and hasn’t fought since March 2014.
