Combate Americas will hit Tucson, Ariz., on April 20 with another solid night of action. Headlining Combate 13 will be Roman Salazar taking on Ricardo Palacios in a bantamweight showdown.
Salazar, who hails from nearby Scottsdale, has competed in the famed UFC Octagon three times, though he failed to secure a win. “El Gallito” was submitted by Mitch Gagnon and Marlon Vera and settled for a no contest against Japanese legend Norifumi Yamamoto at UFC 184 when the fight was halted due to an accidental eye poke.
