CARISMA Town vs. Gown 2016 – The Results

Amazing event last Saturday: great sportsmanship, good quality fights,  safe environment for all athletes and nearly 150 spectators 🙂  This year we had the largest number of CUKBS fighters to date which helped their domination in this show. Total result of 10 wins for CUKBS, 7 for CARISMA and 1 for ARUKBC. Congratulations to all fighters, regardless of the final result; each of you was a winner the moment you walked into the ring. It takes guts and determination to train and prepare for a fight and a great deal of courage to commit to it so well done! Here below is the list of fights and the winners for each fight:
