Another Great Weekend for Conquest

A lot of great things are happening!

BJJ Conquest Fight Team Member Tony Dabbondanza
First, Congratulations to Tony Dabbondanza and Brian Ranck for their impressive victories at Operation Octagon XX. Tony did a great job neutralizing his opponents wrestling and was able to get the 2nd round TKO. This moves Tony to 3-0. He has a bright future at only 17 years old. Brian made his debut, and came out swinging from the bell. Once he settled in and got comfortable things started falling into place. Late in the 1st round Brian landed a body kick that rang throughout the arena and got the crowd on their feet. Following up with a punch that dropped his opponent Brian sank in a deep guillotine and was able to get the tapout. Both fighters made the Conquest Team very proud in their performance and professionalism. 
Sunday was the first belt test held at the new facility, and we had a huge turn out. As you can see from the pictures several students advanced in rank to include both kids and adults. Congratulations to everyone who received a new belt or additional stripes. Your efforts don't go unnoticed and you continue to make all the instructors proud to teach you.

A special thanks to all the members from Team Vicente Junior who came out to support. Our team is what makes us strong.

We also want to give a shout out to out sponsors, Side to Side Fight Gear, Crofton Crossfit and Revgear.
