NAAFS 2010 AWARD RESULTS

GriffonRawl proudly recieved two awards from the NAAFS 2010 Year End Awards.

Fight of the Year went to the Dent vs. Lozano fight which was held down in the Cleveland flats last June. This was an outstanding fight ending with Lozano taking the win by ref. stopage. The fight was an all out war and we here at GriffonRawl are all very proud of Jason Dent and the heart he showed in this fight. Having went up a weight class himself and Lozano coming down a class in order for this fight to take place Dent faced surmounting odds and made all of us very proud. Congratulations Jason!

Breakout fighter of the Year went to our very own Donny Walker. Donny has worked very hard this past year and has truly shown himself to be a force to be reconned with. We are expecting great things from Donny in 2011. Congratulations Donny!

Once again we would also like to congratulate our other fighter George Comer who was nominated for awards this past year. George came in a close second for Amateur Fighter of the Year. Great Job George.

OK Team it's time to storm 2011! Sweat more! Bleed Less!
