Arena Wars Fighting Series Coming to Owensboro Sportscenter

I'll level with you. When it comes to big names in the world of arena sports, I am limited to 1970s-era wrestlers. But when I was a kid, Tojo Yamamoto, Bill Dundee, and Jerry "The King" Lauler were just as big as anyone else I could see on TV.

And yes, I'm very familiar with Conor MacGregor, arguably the biggest MMA superstar on the planet.

Arena Sports Combat Coming to the Owensboro Sportscenter

But that brings my in-depth knowledge of arena combat sports to an end. But the excitement is just beginning for the arrival of arena sports combat. That's right. Arena Wars Fighting Series action is coming to the Owensboro Sportscenter.

Arena Wars Fighting Series

A showcase for the top talents in kickboxing, submission wrestling, MMA, boxing, Muay Thai, and bare knuckle fighting, Arena Wars Fighting Series has been featured on national platforms like FITE TV and NBC Sports. It's been helping athletes, who specialize in these disciplines, gain exposure since its inception in 1998. Arena Wars' commitment to these athletes, combined with its local partnerships, is a huge boon to the community, as well as its own success.
