Ron DeLeon’s Capital City Cage Fight Championships on September 26, 2009, was absolutely his best show yet.

Fight #12
BANTAMWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP
This fight was interesting because it was supposed to be a four-man tournament for the belt, but it seems there was a man who dropped out at the last minute, leaving only three to fight for the belt. I have no idea how they chose who was going to advance directly to the final fight, but here are the results:
Raul Cruz (now 3-1) vs. William Schalaba (4-0)
Winner: William Schalaba by unanimous decision after three grueling rounds.
