NAGA To Host A Grappling Tournament At The Arnold Classic
Sid Needelman reporting…
In what has turned into a yearly expo of health, fitness and yes, martial arts, NAGA confirmed it will hold a two day grappling tournament at the Arnold Classic on the 1st and 2nd day of March. For those unfamiliar with the North American Grappling Association, the tournament is one of the premier events that allow famous pro-fighters, as well as local people who train a chance to earn awards and recognition.
Grappling, which is basically mixed martial arts without the striking, is a great way to test oneself without having to show up to work with a black eye. That weekend's festivities will also include other exhibits, but also notable, a UFC event.
UFC 82, held on March 1st is rumored to be the date where the Spider Anderson Silva, the UFC champ will take on the Pride Champ of the same weight, Dan Henderson.
A few months before that, this coming Saturday, NAGA will also be in Ohio. The competition also is set to arrive in Florida in March as well.
