One of Michigan's fastest-growing regional fight promotions returns to the Upper Peninsula on May 30 when 2 Piece Promotions hosts its ninth event at Kewadin Casino in Sault Ste. Marie. 2 Piece Promotions has built a following across Michigan by running consistent, well-matched cards that develop fighters from the amateur ranks into the professional circuit. Nine events in, the promotion has become a reliable pipeline for homegrown talent. 2 Piece Promotions IX brings that formula north. The main event features an all-Northern-Michigan matchup: Brendan Baker of Petoskey makes his professional debut at 170 pounds against Austin Limberger of Gaylord. Two fighters from small communities roughly 130 miles apart, meeting in the UP for the biggest fight of either of their careers so far. The full card includes additional amateur and professional bouts across multiple weight classes. Kewadin Casino, operated by the Sault Tribe of Chippewa Indians, hosts the event, giving the UP a fight night that doesn't require a drive downstate. "Brendan's put in the work. This is what a pro debut is supposed to look like, the right opponent, the right venue, in front of a crowd that's going to show up. Sault Ste. Marie has been on our list for a while and Kewadin is the right room for this card," said Zach Howe, promoter of 2 Piece Promotions. 2 Piece Promotions IX streams live on MILLIONS for fans who cannot attend in person.
