BattlefieldFL Press Release:

Prince George B.C. native, Ryan Chiappe, has vacated his King of the Cage Middleweight Championship Belt to Join Battlefield Fight League. Chiappe who has not been to a single decision in twelve professional fights, will ride a two-fight win streak as a Middleweight into Battlefield Fight League at Frank Crane Arena on April 2nd.


Chiappe TKO’d Tim Skidmore in May and tapped Jason Volpe with a Rear-Naked Choke in November of 2009, both intense performances for the powerful Middleweight who has recommitted himself at Revolution Fight Team to reach the top of Battlefield’s stacked Middleweight or Welterweight Divisions.


“You know, I’m very confident and more than ready to make my Battlefield debut. You hear coming up that so much of this sport is mental and you don’t really understand it until you’ve been around for awhile,” Chiappe explained Wednesday. “Now, I’ve been around for awhile and I’ve seen a lot of guys not perform the way they’re capable of. But, I know where I need to be and I’m just ready to reach the top.”


“I’m down to be around Battlefield,” Chiappe said. “Guys I’m friends with – Matt Baker, Gary and all the guys at Revolution they’ve told me they’ve been treated real well by Battlefield. I’ve seen the shows and it’s a great production. I see them sign all the top guys in Canada and I wanna be a part of it.”


Chiappe will Make his Battlefield Fight League debut on Saturday April 2nd, From Frank Crane Arena in Nanaimo, B.C.


Kang/Taylor matchup will headline a stacked card for BFL 7: Invasion which will feature many of Canada’s top fighters.
