One of the top Northeast amateur MMA promotions is back this Friday night with a stacked card that features three title bouts.

Triton Fights 4 is set to go down at The Space in Westbury, New York, and the 12-fight card is airing live and exclusively on FloCombat.com. Need some convincing to tune in? Look no further, as we give you our top three reasons to watch.

In The Main Event, Someone's 0 Has Got To Go!

The night's main event will see a clash between undefeated amateur prospects Byelka Soto (2-0) and Dianna Karavas (3-0).

The winner of this bout in the women's 135-pound division will not only walk away with the victory but also be crowned the Triton Fights women's bantamweight champion, a title which is currently vacated.

An Oklahoma native, Soto has won both of her amateur bouts in impressive fashion, with her most recent victory coming in a five-round fight against Stephanie Geltmacher at CFFC 7: Night of Champions in June.

Standing across the cage from her will be Karavas, who hails from New York.

Karavas is equally unblemished in her mixed martial arts career, touting one more victory than her opponent. Karavas sports a strong grappling background, having competed at the IBJJF 2017 Pan Jiu-Jitsu Championship earlier this year.

Surprisingly, she has not picked up a submission yet in her amateur MMA career, winning two fights by decision and one by knockout. It'll be interesting to see if she can go back to her roots this Friday night and pull off that sought-after submission against Soto.

Not One, Not Two, But Three Title Fights!

The Triton Fights women's bantamweight championship isn't the only belt that will be on the line in Westbury. 

The vacant flyweight title will be decided in a matchup between Anel Dudo (1-1) and Daniel Maldonado (2-2). Also on the card, Chris Kevlin (2-2) and Austin Wolfson (5-0) will scrap for welterweight gold.

After dropping his amateur debut in February, Dudo rebounded this past June by defeating fellow flyweight Marcos Rodriguez at CFFC 7: Night of Champions. Fighting out of Pure Hart Training Center in Astoria, NY, Maldonado has competed as an amateur five times, once in a grappling-only matchup that doesn't technically count toward his record.

Despite going winless in his first three bouts (two losses and a draw in the grappling matchup), Maldonado opted to not give up following his third winless effort but instead attempted a fourth shot at his dream.

The persistence paid off, with Maldonado not only defeating Mamdou Nasr in February at Triton Fights 1 but also beating Irvin Averbukh in the following bout four months later. Maldonado will look to make it three in a row by winning his first amateur title this Friday night at Triton Fights 4.

Fighting out of Renzo Gracie NYC, Kevlin stumbled out of the gates as an amateur but has rebounded beautifully, winning two straight and earning a shot at the Triton Fights welterweight strap.

Across from him will be Wolfson, the Bellmore Kickboxing product boasting a spotless 5-0 record. With three decisions, a knockout, and a submission on his resume, Wolfson is dangerous wherever the fight may go, and he'll be prepared to go the distance if need be to earn gold. This scrap is an absolutely can't-miss affair, as the winner will become one of the top welterweights in New York.

'Ked Prophet' Looking To Take It To The Next Step

Highly touted lightweight amateur fighter Jay-Quan Jackson Wilder (6-1), also known as "Ked Prophet," will look to prove once again that he has what it takes to reach the next level.

After dominating the opposition in his first five bouts as an amateur, the New York native Wilder suffered his first career loss against still-undefeated Costa Rican phenome Fabian Miranda. Following what was a really tough loss to swallow, Ked Prophet went back to the drawing board and six months later, he returned looking better than ever. This past July, Wilder finished Omowale Adewale at ECF 16: Takeover 3 with a devastating flurry of strikes in the second round.

Standing in Wilder's way this Friday night will be the Vermont-based submission specialist Tim Ring (3-1). Ring has lived and died by the sword in his amateur MMA career, winning all three of his bouts by submission, while suffering his only loss in the same manner. When looking over this fight on paper from a stylistic standpoint, it is hard to imagine a scenario in which fans will walk away feeling any sort of disappointment.

Amanda Leve Bonus Track

We take care of you here at FloCombat, and that's why we're dropping a fourth reason to watch on ya.

It's not often a debuting amateur receives a ton of hype, but Amanda Leve's train is rolling strong heading into Triton Fights 4. The Brazilian jiu-jitsu specialist is just 20 years old and has completely blitzed her competition. She's gone toe-to-toe with UFC title contender Cat Zingano. She's tapped out men, and now she's ready for the cage. Learn more about her and watch some of her footage here.

Tune in LIVE on Friday, Sept. 8, at 7:30 PM ET to watch all this Triton Fights 4 goodness -- and much more -- go down. We'll see you there.
