What is Challenge of Champions?
Challenge of Champions is the largest mixed martial arts competition in the United States. This past Challenge of Champions event boasted competitors of all ages, backgrounds and belt ranks participating in 300 divisions of head-to-head, dual-discipline martial arts competition. The event took place in front of a sold-out crowd of over 4000 spectators.
Challenge of Champions was introduced over a decade ago in 1996 and has grown to become the largest tournament of its kind in the United States. The next event, Challenge of Champions 49, is scheduled for Sunday, June 5th, 2022.
The areas of competition included Jiu-Jitsu and Kickboxing, for both juniors (ages 15 and under) and adults (of all ages).
Jiu-Jitsu is one of the largest and fastest growing disciplines in martial arts. This competition’s grappling event showcased competitors in various divisions. Jiu-Jitsu is similar to traditional wrestling in its clinch and ground techniques, with the key difference of aiming for a “tap out” or, submission, using various choke holds and joint locks. Due to the fact that most real life fight situations end up on the ground, this is a very practical and effective form of self-defense.
Also featured is the Kickboxing competition. This fast paced sparring competition features participants in full protective gear using strategic combinations of punches, kicks and blocks to cleanly land blows on their opponent and outscore them.
