My gym (fitness gym, not martial arts) just got a full boxing ring, a butt-load of mats and heavy bags. They know about our throwdowns and MMA stuff that we do and said they wouldn't mind hosting them at all.

Were going to try to get a monthly or bi-monthly group together not so much as just a throwdown (non-bullies will be attending) but as an open sparring meet. The idea is to have different sparring partners and maybe learn some other styles to help people looking to compete, especially smaller schools who might not be able to draw upon a large group for sparring.

Myself, LI GUY 1 and Colin (for those of you who know him) will definitely be there. We will be doing ti from 12-3 and the owner wants 20 bux a head. A little pricey but the facilities are nice, they have showers (that you dont pay for) and me and LI GUY 1 will be there :)

For info send me a PM or if your a dirty lurker and happen to see this Email me at joseph_funaro@yahoo.com or AIM me @ GIJoe6186.

I'll be there, you can to!

I know how to get some people there...

KempoFist is my bitch. Ok, now he'll be there.

We just got back from our first session and I was impressed.
About 20 people total showed up from different schools and everyone sparred hard the whole time.
I got a lot of boxing in with 2 really good Miletich guys.
The ATA showed up and represented well in kickboxing and of course a few taekwondo rounds.
Also a fighter from Campbell's Karate and Kickboxing was there solo as his teamates had a fight to be at I think, but there school is definitely legit and we are sure to see more of them next time.

Next one will be in a month, I expect the turnout to be ~25-30 this time as a lot of people were waiting out to see if this one would work out. It did.

I'm in let me know when
