Fivestar Fight League will crown their first amateur featherweight champion at Fivestar Fight League 13 on October 3, as Dylan Leilke and Dane Newell face off.
Dylan Lielke and Dane Newall set to battle for Fivestar Fight League Amateur Featherweight Title
Fivestar confirmed the match-up on Wednesday morning.
Lielke (4-0) has fought for a couple of different promotions and all of his fights have been fireworks inside the cage. At Fivestar Fight League 12, Lielke finished Joel Morin with an early first round submission.
Newall (7-0) started his amateur career in 2011 and has amassed a seven-fight win streak over the last three years. Most recently the Mamba MMA fighter deafetaed Russ McCumber at BFL 30 by first round knockout to win capture their amateur title.
The two undefeated fighters both fought on the fourth Fivestar Fight League card and the promotion was ready to set them up against each other back then. It didn’t come to fruition then, but a year and a half later it has.
The Lielke vs. Newall bout will serve as the amateur main event (preliminary card).
Fivestar Fight League 13 “Vindicated” goes down on October 3 from the Fort St. John Curling Rink. Tickets on sale August 1st at locations to be announced.
