 RGDA NHB Team News !

Professor David Adiv just got great News from RGDA Absoluto Academy Instructor Tudor Mihaita. Tudor reports the following

"We went to a big MMA show Friday night with 4 guys competing from Absoluto/RGDA. Packed arena, live on the 2nd biggest TV station in Romania which had awesome TV ratings. First fight Ferid (on the undercard) won a hard fight against a guy from Lion's Den (Ken Shamrock's gym) after decision.

Then our next fighter Eugen won after the other corner threw the towel in the 1st rd after some great ground and pounding.

Tolea our second guy was disqualified after illegal blows (a very strange call from teh ref, to say the least...) when he was on mount.

 Our last guy, Adrian, won by TKO rd 2 after the most spectacular fight of the evening.
