Heres a link if you want to check it out, look for "IMAGEM DO MES"

US$30 is not expensive considering the quality of the fighters. You are very lucky to attend such a high level tournament.

Please let us know your thoughts on the fights when you return from the tournament.

Texeria to win!!! And make a statement for the this year WT.

The atmosphere was intense at the LA Dojo last Saturday. None of the fighters were smiling.
