This Saturday, February 6th, American Championship Entertainment presents “Hero’s Celebration”, a memorial show remembering Michael Viruet Jr, AKA Mike Morgan Jr. In November 2014, Michael and his younger brother were walking back from a movie when they were struck by a SUV, who then fled the scene. Viruet Jr. was hospitalized for over three weeks until he lost his life on December 4th, reportedly just minutes after learning that his assailant had been arrested. This Saturday, ACE holds its second annual memorial show to remember the life of Viruet, including a tournament to claim the Mike Morgan Jr Memorial Cup. Scroll through the following pages to preview the matches already announced for this massive show:
