Ultimate Fighting Championship officials on Saturday partnered with the
Las Vegas-based Jump for Joy Foundation and the Boys & Girls Clubs
of Las Vegas to launch a new campaign focused on the country’s youth.
Perennial UFC contenders Stephan Bonnar and Tyson Griffin teamed up with
UFC vice president Reed Harris and UFC writer Frank Curreri to teach
local students the benefit of mixed martial arts training.
Harris told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) the program was a rousing
success and marks the beginning of a nationwide initiative to bring MMA
as exercise to the youth of America.
