Pellegrino MMA Academy is the place to be ... I'm so proud to have my first student fight in the greatest organization, the UFC. Greg has been with me since white belt and I just promoted him last night to brown, an hour after I got the UFC call.

He had no idea about either announcement so it was an awesome night. He's a great kid with mad skills, huge heart and he will fight to the death. It will be a great fight and a great night for our team!!
