Just a reminder - it is that time again. The Utah Championship Submission Challenge XIV is being held on Satuday at the Utah Valley University Activity Center.
Some of us from the Fusion Academy went down and competed in the 10th Champion Submission Grappling competition and so we wanted to post some photos and videos about this great event.
The competition was a ton of fun, especially because it was my first one since I started training in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. If you’ve never been inside the Throwdown Elite Training Center, you’re in for a pleasant surprise. It’s huge, clean, and well-equipped (even has a high elevation room). The walls have huge artistic photos of local and big-name fighters as well as beautiful yoga girls. The octagon-like cage and the large grappling mats can be seen well by spectators from the second floor.
Also, quick shout out to all Fusion BJJ competitors. Out of 19 schools that competed, Fusion placed 3rd for overall top team. To see all the tournament results, see here.
