The First UMA English Open Groundfighting Championships were a resounding and fantastic success.

The U.M.A. would like to thank all the Coach's, all 82 Fighters, Referee's, Officials, Spectators and Supporters alike for making the Championship the fantastic success it was.

Congratulations to all of the New UMA English Open Groundfighting Champions, Gold Medallists and Title Holders for 2007 who won they're respective Weight Categories at the Championships, and well done to everyone who took part, without you all, it would not have been the success it was.

Keep your eyes out for the write up, results and photo's etc, in Fighters Magazine - www.onthemat.com - www.mmauniverse.com and of course here on www.cagewarriors.com

We look forward to seeing you all, especially the Fighters again, all 82 of you, hopefully again soon, and especially look forward to seeing you all along with all the U.M.A. English Open Champions and U.M.A. English Open Title Holders defending and fighting for the titles again next year in 2008.
