The night before Ronda Rousey faces Sarah Kaufman in Strikeforce two up-and-comer female fighters headline NAAFS Rock n Rumble 6 as Bellator vet Jessica Eye faces 2009 HOOKnSHOOT Grand Prix finalist Angela Magana.  Rock n Rumble 6 takes place August 17th at Nautica Pavilion in Cleveland with a live pay-per-view webcast on GFL.tv. 

Jessica EyeJessica EyeWith almost twice the experience Magana enters this fight on a three-fight win streak, her most recent being an armbar of Avery Vilche a little over a year ago.  Eye meanwhile has made her mark in the past year.  Following an unsuccessful shot at the NAAFS title in June 2011 Eye won her Bellator debut, picked up two wins in NAAFS, and in her most recent fight returned to Bellator for a unanimous decision over Anita Rodriguez, all by decision.  Magana is known for her submissions and Eye her striking but both are well-rounded enough to finish the fight anywhere.
