Dont Go Anywhere After The Fight Next Saturday: We've Got Your Night Covered

The Biggest Fight Night Is Not Enough For You?

We hope you've signed up to win 2 Free tickets for the biggest MMA Cage Fight event the Outer Banks has ever seen, because KnuckleUp's got your Fight Night entertainment all taken care of.

Right after the fights are finished, at the very same venue, a VIP after-party will be set up to raise the roof and celebrate the Fight success.

This is no backyard-lame-high-school party either: our own Morrison Butler contacted celebrity Dj Rene, from DC, to come and run the mixers! He will be spinning hip hop , club music , top 40 and rock mash ups.

Dj Rene has only agreed to come and play one night, as his schedule doesn't allow for any more presentations. So make sure you stick around to listen to what Rene will take out his magic dj hat.

Here's all the info:

What: Kick-arse VIP after-party for the Fight To The Finish VI Event
When: July 18th, @ 10:30pm
Where: Right at the fight's location: the old SeaMark store in Nags Head, conveniently located at Milepost 14.5
Price: $5 per person

Contact info: Morrison at 404-918-8996 or knuckleupobx[at]gmail.com

Miss it, and regret it!

and there's more:

Two of the Gym's Best Talents On The Ring

Justin 'Tinman' Newton, the youngest instructor at KnuckleUp Obx, joins PK on the ring for a quick MMA training.

Tinman is gaining lots of popularity amongst students due to his commitment and his high-energy kickboxing classes. He's one of our many success stories, having lost over 30lbs of fat and gaining massive lean muscle in a short amount of time.

Recently, Tinman went on to score high in a national wrestling competition, showing amazing jiu jitsu and submission skills. On this video, he shows how the best MMA training in the Outer Banks quickly overcomes a huge reach difference as Tinman dominates the round.

Sean Spangler (left) and Leo Saraceni after exclusive class 6/18

On Wednesday, the 17th, and Thursday, the 18th, KnuckleUp had the honor to welcome Sean Spangler on the mat.

Sean taught an exclusive seminar on Wednesday, for a group of intermediate and advanced fighters, and left each one of them impressed with the technique and effectiveness of his teaching.

In Las Vegas, where Sean spends most of his time, he trains with Robert Drysdale and a team of high-caliber professionals.

Sean brought to the seminar strong, proven drills, and shared with the students how to take basic moves to perfection by focusing on flawless execution.

His execution of the rear-naked choke is close to flawless, and according to him, the secret is knowing when and where to apply energy.

Sean is not the heaviest fighter on the mat (aprox 180lbs), but controls heavier and stronger opponents utilizing a rather suave style of jiu-jitsu that relies on focused pressure application instead of raw strength. When teaching a defense to the inside-guard arm bar, Sean explained how to control your opponent's hip movement as well as leg pressure, which allowed for a much more efficient defense against stronger opponents.

Here are some pictures of the Thursday class:
