STS? Let me explain!



STS is a new style of combat sports tournament taking place at this year's World MMA Expo on December 17 & 18 in New York City.  STS stands for Stand Up (Muay Thai), Take down (Wrestling) and Submission (BJJ).  Elite Plus Fusion MMA Fight Team has two members Rob Ovalle and Edwin "Mach" Rivera competing (185 and 195 respectively).  Come out and show your support for these warriors as they compete and SIMULTANEOUSLY try to raise awareness for the illegality of MMA in New York (OBSURD!!!)

Tickets are $20, which gets you admission to the Expo for the two days and admittance to the fights on both days (qualifiers on Saturday and finals on Sunday).

Any members of Fusion MMA are welcome to volunteer (encouraged, actually) to help out with the STS tournament.  You could be doing crowd control, ticket handling, ushering, or walking the fighters out.  Any and all help is appreciated.  Contact Mark Yehia @ Elite Plus if you would like to help!!!

Good luck men!!  Show them how Fusion Fight Team gets down.

Rob Ovalle- 185 lbs
Edwin "Mach" Rivera- 195 lbs
