The Ukrainian federation on the mixed martial arts which supports ARMY MMA fighting promotion will carry out fight for the title of world champion among military men. Now still decides in what weight category will ...
The step with holding championship fights among servicemen was logical in the activity of UF MMA, as it is known that besides the development of martial arts in Ukraine, it actively helps the armed forces of our country, as well as veterans.
This year the federation opened a rehabilitation health center for veteran families "Territory of health" in Borodyanka of Kyiv region. Now everyone can exercise and recuperate there for free on modern simulators.
Also UF employees recently organized a volunteer mission to the front lines, during which they delivered food and sports equipment to the soldiers.
UF MMA also cares about the future of the armed forces. Training seminars and comprehensive practical classes for students of military departments are regularly held.
But taking into account the fact that the federation aims to develop sports in its program includes tournaments attended by servicemen. On the Independence Day in Ivano-Frankivsk, in Potocki Palace a large-scale ARMY MMA tournament was held with the participation of representatives of five countries. Also on the recent evening of martial arts of the World League WWFC with 10 fights, 2 of them were attended by the representatives of ARMY MMA - the best military men and veterans from Ukraine and Georgia. And it's not the whole list of tournaments and events UF MMA organizes to support Ukrainian military men, veterans and the armed forces.
Therefore, as a part of expansion of ARMY MMA activities, during the next WWFC evening, the fight for the champion's belt will take place. The title of the strongest military in the world will be played out. While negotiations are underway with all the participants of the future evening, the belt is already ready and waiting for its winner.
