Nova Scotia, Canada may seem like an unlikely place to make headlines in the grappling world, but a new event called Submissions Series Pro is making waves and turning heads.
“Canada punches above its weight in jiu jitsu,” says organizer Cat Clarke. “We’ve had guys here medal at the worlds and take major tournaments. Nobody is going to walk in here and roll over our best guys. I want to show that to the world – and showcase the world’s best talent right here.”
On the success of the first event, Clarke has booked an even more exciting card for June 20th in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
In the main event Andris Brunovskis of Atos takes on Nova Scotia’s Josh Wincey. Another Atos sensation, Michael Liera Jr, takes on Marcos Tinoco from the Marcelo Garcia Academy.
The Event will feature a FREE LIVE STREAM .
With submission grappling blowing up all across Canada, Clarke says he’s ready to take Submission Series nation-wide. “We already have events in the works for Toronto, Montreal and Calgary,” he explains.
