Canadian welterweight prospect Jordan Mein (21-7) will face DREAM welterweight champion Marius Zaromskis (14-5, 1 no contest) in the main event of theScore Fighting Series June 10 event, officials announced Wednesday. Zaromskis' title will not be on the line.
Nicknamed "Young Guns," Mein has won his last four fights in a row, which includes notable victories over veterans Joe Riggs and Josh Burkman.
Zaromskis hasn't fared too well since winning the DREAM 170-pound title 2009. Since then, he's gone 2-2, with one no contest, which includes his Strikeforce welterweight title loss to Nick Diaz in January 2010. He most recently got back on the winning track when he defeated Kazushi Sakuraba at Dynamite!! 2010.
Other veterans scheduled to fight on the card include Joe Doerksen, Rameau Thierry Sokoudjou and Antonio Carvalho.
The event takes place at The Hershey Centre in Mississaugau, Ontario, on June 10.
