MERRILLVILLE, Ind., April 20, 2007 - Last night, Chicagoland fight fans jammed Langel’s Pizza to see the official fighter weigh-ins for tonight's “Fist of Fury” event at Star Plaza Theatre in Merrillville, Indiana. Presented by Octavius James' One In A Million Inc. and Miller, the six bout card features Mia “The Knock Out” St. John vs. Brooke Dierdorff in the main event and many of the region’s most popular fighters in supporting bouts.

“The fan response for this event has been tremendous,” James said. “Mia St. John has taken greater Chicagoland by storm, and her opponent, Brooke Dierdorff, is having none of the hype. If Brooke gets her way, this is going to be a real war.”

Mia St. John 136.5 lbs. vs. Brooke Dierdorff 132

Mary McGee 137 lbs. vs. Christina Jones 138

Jimmy Holmes 154 lbs. vs. Dean Nichols 154

Don Moore 129.5 lbs. vs. Pedro Flores 137

Jason Cook 172 lbs. vs. Mark Long 175
