Two GR amateurs make their MMA debuts on October 5th: Ahmad Douglas & Jeffrey James Offak glove up to test themselves in the NAAFS cage. Both Douglas and Offak have successful experience in grappling tournaments and smokers and Jason Dent feels both are ready to make the jump to MMA.
JJ Offak says he was supposed to make his debut in June : "...but they were not able to find me a fight. I've had kickboxing smoker and an MMA smoker that I did in Tucson Arizona, grappling tournaments experience. But this will be my first sanctioned MMA fight."
This is more than just a debut fight for both men, a win in the NAAFS cage will qualify them for the amateur team. Coach Chuck Schilling will be in charge of fight prep as well as cornering both men on the 5th.
