Unless you were training, cage side, or actually in the cage, Marsicos Costa Azul in Fresno, Ca was the place to be Saturday January 21st, 2023 for MMA in California. Owner of Cali Fights Marcial Marmolejo had a full house, with some of the industries heavy hitters on hand. Folks from the MMA community would enjoy food, drinks, networking and mingling in anticipation, of who would walk out with this years Cali Fights Awards.
Thanks to Cali Fights and Marcial for putting on this event and giving us a place to gather and meet new faces, as well as catch up and appreciate old ones. Events like these allow us to celebrate and recognize the folks putting in hard work behind the scenes and in the cage throughout our area for 2022. California has always represented the hardest when it comes to MMA, at all levels in my opinion. Fighters, Coaches, Promoters, Promotions, GYM's, MMA Gear, Media...People. Our people, and we're proud of our people Marical Marmoleo of Cali Fights for continuously representing for Cali in our area and more.
