Chicago's Gringo Loco Clashes With Myron Reed Next Saturday At Cicero Stadium
CHICAGO – Chicago's own Gringo Loco looks to show his hometown why he is the "Base God" when he squares off with an emerging middleweight threat in Myron Reed.
MLW today announced Gringo Loco vs. "Hot Fire" Myron Reed for MLW: Intimidation Games at Cicero Stadium. The event will air live on beIN SPORTS on Saturday night March 2nd.
Tickets start at $10 at http://www.MLWTickets.com.
Gringo Loco, known for his low center of gravity that he uses to his advantage to counter highflying wrestlers, will look to shutdown Myron Reed's state-of-the-art aerial arsenal.
Reed, a supporter of the recently suspended Rich Swann, has been vocal with his own complaints about biased refereeing in the league.
Gringo Loco sees this bout as a challenge: a big win in his hometown in itself is a statement to matchmakers but the evasive speedster Reed will be a challenge for Gringo.
Will Loco bring it for Chicago or will Reed's combination of speed, aerial offense and innovation be too much for the "Base God"? Find out live in Chicago March 2nd at Cicero Stadium as MLW presents a live network special INTIMIDATION GAMES for beIN SPORTS (buy tickets).
