The 2011 Toronto North American Grappling Association (NAGA) Championship went down December 3rd weekend as part of the MMA Fan Expo in Mississauga. NAGA holds over 45 mixed grappling tournaments a year and this was its inaugural Canadian event.
Team Nova Uniao's Kombatants were on hand to do what they do best, and they walked away quite decorated. Give these guys a round of rowdy applause, they've had a fantastic competition year.
