Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) is one of the fastest growing sports in the world. That fact is plain to see on TV screens and advertising everywhere. Nowadays, televised MMA action is everywhere. Promotions like the Ultimate Fighting Championship, host shows just about every weekend. Yet these national shows like the UFC and Bellator aren’t all there is. All across the globe there are regional promotions also putting on events in hopes of training the next wave of stars.

Take Superior Combative Championships (SCC) as an example. Based in Galveston, TX, SCC is a low-key promotion that promotes amateur mixed martial arts in it’s little corner of Texas. Unlike the UFC, name recognition isn’t what they hang their hat on. Rather, they just want to put on an action-packed show with hungry MMA fighters looking to make a name for themselves someday. They’re no UFC fighters just yet, but these fighters all fought with the passion and wanting to inspire the crowd. And for the most part, they all left motivated to do more.
