On Saturday, August 2nd, UFM's fighters were out in force when Summit Fighting Championships came to Tupelo. The atmosphere at the Tupelo Furniture Market was electric as fans stood in lines that reached across the massive parking lot to see their favorite fighters. Once inside it was standing room only in what may be the best event of 2015.
In front of a sell out crowd, the UFM fighters put on a show that will likely not be forgotten anytime soon. Every attendee we spoke with had nothing but good things to say and they can't wait for the next event. Rumor has it that it might be in November.
The team went 6 for 7 fights which is remarkable. Fans were using words like "Amazing" and "Fantastic" as they remarked on the event as a whole. One fan stated "I have never been to an event that had this much action in it and I have been to a lot of MMA events. There wasn't one bad performance out of any of the UFM guys!"
First time fight attendee Brent Collum said he would be back. Brent and his wife Lori own Fourth Street Restaurant in Red Bay, Ala. They traveled over 50 miles to see what all the fuss was about and both said they would most certainly be back. "Man, that was awesome!" Brad stated.
Not only did fans get to see the best fights, but many of the old timers got to see some of their old favorites like Chris Gates, Jeremy Kilgore, and Jon Price, all of Team AGEMA who were there to cheer on their old friends and teammates.
Grady, Brian, Isaac, Ben, "Zeus", Daniel, and Nelson were in shape and ready to fight. It was obvious that Cody, Scott, and Jeff had prepared them well. As Mark Romano says "Perfect practice makes perfect" and boy did these guys get close to perfect. We are very proud of Team AGEMA and all the fighters. Stay tuned for pictures, video links and other information.
Hurry over to the UFM Facebook page for lots more pictures from the event.
