Royce Gracie receives award from CFP
Royce Gracie MMA Fight Night was hosted by CFP (Carolina Fight Promotions) and was live at the RBC Center in Raleigh, NC on Saturday. This was Carolina’s mixed martial arts competition not UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship). UFC 104 was broadcast immediately following Royce Gracie’s “Carolina Crown” event.
We got tickets last minute to make a night out and enjoy the show. Although there were some less talented fights, there were also very good and highly skilled fights. As I’m sure it is their mission I saw some fighters that showed discipline and talent that I expect to see in the UFC soon.
The night was very eventful. Royce Gracie received an award from CFP. Gracie also presented all the awards for the night. We even witnessed a marriage proposal by a fighter from the octagon after his fight. The main event ended at about 1 minute into the first round by tap out due to a triangle, an exciting finish to fight night.
