Fighters on the rise at global level
Editor’s note: This column is about mixed martial arts, and it will appear on a biweekly basis on Thursdays.
Hafa adai.
Some mixed martial arts news for you: Joe Duarte, despite performing valiantly, lost his fight in “The Ultimate Fighter,” but is en route to Canada for competition on Oct. 24. An excellent post-fight interview is available at www.fokai.tv.
As much as the sport has evolved and is evolving on Guam, it is gratifying and inspiring to see how our athletes are pursuing bigger things and how our local fighter athletes and industry are appealing to broader and growing audiences.
As we move forward in international professional combat sports notoriety, it is great to see that we are consistently and diligently watering our roots in individual martial arts and amateur combat sports through more frequent competitions and community support for these competitions and their competitors.
In watching the performance level, and the increasingly fast learning pace of our youth, it is only obvious that though the international arena is growing more competitive, Guam’s and the Marianas’ fighters are developing at the same pace as others in the international arena.
