Props to Mike Rogers St. Charles BJJ-MMA for promoting.

Tyron Woodley was there

Matt Hughes was there

A coupla old FZW guys were there. They fight out of St. Charles BJJ-MMA

Decent crowd

Nice set up, you could see the nine sided ring very well.

Ring Announcer may have been in over his head. Nice Tux, but he was getting pretty severely heckled by the fans.

Overall a good night of fights. Check out the next local shows when you get a chance
