Saturday August 18th is not just a Strikeforce card, but Chicago will be hosting an IBJJF Open tournament. It will be taking place all day but the black belts get going at 11am. The event will be at ODEUM EXPO CENTER 1033 N Villa Ave., Villa Park. There is no charge so feel free to stop in!

The full schedule can be found right here

I'm going to be there pretty much all day rooting on my GB team mates, but will not be competing myself as I'd likely lose an arm or conciseness. I'll be rocking a black GB shirt, so if your in the arena say hi!

So if your going or have teammates going to compete sound off below! Even if you not currently training in BJJ it is a good way to start your day and then end it with a Strikeforce card.

In closing, Go Gracie Barra!
