Mixed Martial Arts is one of the fastest growing sports. Different kinds of martial artists compete to determine a best overall. The fighters compete in an eight-sided caged ring. When a fighter wants to give up, the signal is a tap on the mat. On Nov. 30, "Legends of Fighting Championship" hosted an event to a sold-out crowd at the 8 Seconds Saloon. You can read the full story at ProElite.com. The Pillow Fight USA women's team also competed. The women start out with pillows trying to knock the pillow out of the opponent's hands. Once a pillow has been knocked out, the women then start to grapple.
