PROVIDENCE, R.I. (Aug. 23, 2011) – More often than not, a promoter will go out of his way to find a world-rated, free agent with a limitless future.

 

Rather than wait by the phone, Saul “The Spider” Almeida chose his own destiny, bringing his credentials to the only promoter on his radar and landing a new contract with the fastest-growing promotional company in mixed martial arts.

 

Fresh off a big win over Tateki Matsuda on Saturday at the Mohegan Sun Arena, Almeida (10-1) signed a long-term promotional agreement with Jimmy Burchfield’s Classic Entertainment & Sports, Inc., an easy decision for the Framingham, Mass., featherweight considering his last three fights prior to Saturday’s appearance at “Bellator 48” came on the undercard of CES shows.

 

“Locally, there’s no one else I’d rather fight for,” said Almeida, 22, who is ranked No. 10 in the world among locals by Arizona-based website ULTMMA.com and No. 5 in the region among 145-pounders by NortheastMMA.net.
