The first professional card from DF Uncaged puts a cage on the central floor of a second-century monument. The Roman Theater in Amman holds roughly 6,000 seats, and the stone stands will surround the cage on Friday, Oct. 30.
The promotion comes from the creators of Desert Force, working through Makana 360 and Jordan Combat Consulting. Its stated aim is twofold: give Arab fighters a professional platform and bring international opponents to Jordan. The Jordanian MMA Federation oversees the event, with support from tourism bodies and local authorities. The night will also include artistic performances and cultural exhibitions.
In the main event, former ACA welterweight champion Mukhammad Berkhamov, 17-3, faces American Dante Schiro, 13-6. Berkhamov is booked for this fight and has no other bout listed after it. The co-main event pairs Andrew Sanchez, the winner of The Ultimate Fighter 23 and a former UFC fighter, with Russia's Mikhail Ragozin.
The bout that draws the most local interest is Mohammad Fakhreddine against Wales' John Martin Fraser at a 92 kg catchweight. Fakhreddine is among the best-known Arab fighters. At Brave CF he won the middleweight title in September 2020 and the light heavyweight title in March 2022, becoming the organization's first simultaneous two-division champion. In June 2025 he regained the middleweight belt with a first-round knockout of Erko Jun, and he was later announced for the promotion's Hall of Fame.
The fight is the finale of Jordan MMA Week, which runs Oct. 27-30. Events started with a press conference at the Odeon Theater on the 27th, followed by an open workout on the Dead Sea promenade on the 28th. Weigh-ins at the Amman Citadel on the 29th come the day before the card. Results from the first night will show whether the format, an ancient venue paired with Arab talent and foreign opposition, can be repeated.
