The Event: Redemption- Barata vs Montoya 2
On the night of September 17th, 2011, Cherokee Street will present Redemption: Barata vs
Montoya 2 at the Albuquerque Convention Center. In the first meeting of these warriors, May
2011, Barata and Montoya went right to war from bell one. Barata being a World Champion Jiu
Jitsu black belt, and Montoya, the hard hitting championship contender. From round one it was
a war that nobody expected. Barata, an expert on the ground, showed that he had the stand up
game to go toe to toe with Montoya. Montoya had some tricks up his sleeve as well, not
allowing the Jiu Jitsu specialist to take him to the ground. Barata and Montoya fought to a
“controversial” three round decision. That night, Barata had his arm raised in victory over
Montoya. Many members of the crowd in Clovis, New Mexico believed that the bout could
have gone either way…..
This chain of events has led us to the upcoming event, Redemption: Barata vs Montoya 2,
where Barata and Montoya will prove once and for all, who is the superior fighter. The battle
will take place in their very own backyard, Albuquerque, New Mexico. Barata, Gracie Barra
instructor and Chavez Dojo trained fighter. Montoya, Tao Fitness and Dojo owner and Jackson’s
MMA trained fighter.
Redemption: Barata vs Montoya 2 will showcase up and coming fighters from the state of New
Mexico. Gyms participating in this event will be Gracie Barra New Mexico, Chavez Dojo,
Jackson’s MMA, Albuquerque Kickboxing, and Tran Lovato MMA, just to name a few. This card
