" RESULTS OF THE IBK HAYASTAN TOURNAMENT "

" 03 OCTOBER 2009 - HAMBURG " 

Below are the results of the IBK-Hayastan Challenge 2009 - North German Championships.

All fights were completed in a cage and fighters came from Belgium, Brazil, Denmark, England, France, Poland, Spain and Germany.

The event was HUGE success yet still we will be working to optimize the processes and the "show".

The level of the fighters has grown a lot the latest years and Grappling has definitely come to stay! We had immense support from some very good team.

There were HUGE trophies for the winners (and 2^nd + 3^rd places) as well as for best technical fighter and best Fighter.

Team Trophy was won by XESS Fights Hamburg.
