Fall River’s Yorgan De Castro looking for 3rd MMA heavyweight title in 4 fights in 2024

It has been quite a year for Fall River MMA fighter Yorgan De Castro.

On May 3rd, the UFC and PFL veteran battled Denver’s Kevin “King Kevi” Sears (9-8) for the vacant CES MMA Heavyweight World title at Foxwoods Casino. “The Mad Titan,” a Cape Verdean native fighting out of Regiment Training Center, won by first round KO/TKO leaving him undefeated in 7 appearances with CES MMA.

On June 29th, De Castro won the vacant New England Fights Heavyweight Championship by KO/TKO in the second round against Michigan’s Alex Davidson in Lewiston, Maine.

On September 7th the #1 ranked MMA heavyweight in the northeast took on Slovenia’s Miran “Slo Rocky” Fabjan for the Fight Nation interim Heavyweight Championship all the way in Pula, Croatia. De Castro lost by TKO.

On November 9th, the 11-6 De Castro will take on champion Jahsua Marsh, who fights out of Florida, for the Cage Titans Heavyweight Title at Plymouth Memorial Hall in Plymouth, Massachusetts.

A win for De Castro would cap off a great 2024 and be another positive step heading into 2025.
