    Training in AZ?

    Anyone train BJJ or MMA in AZ? I am looking for a school, I know Gustavo and Mega Ton are out here but would be hard to go to due to where I live and work.

    arizona combat sports, its in tempe...

    The BEST gym in AZ

    Guys like Fickett, Varner, Bader, Dollaway... There are some good fighters there...

    MMA gyms in CA are adherently better, but what do you expect, CA is the Mecca of MMA.

    Depending on where you are in AZ there are alot of places to train..one name that comes to mind is Tim McClellan..he knows most of the people in the game there he has been brought in as a coach for alot of different fighters in the sport of the years including VanArsdale, Kevin Jackson, Mark Coleman, Mark Kerr, Townsend Saunders (Jackson and Saunders of course being Olympic Champions) as well as other fighters such as Rick Rufus and many others. He is mainly a strength and power training coach, buct has been an Olympic wrestling coach, is a black belt in Judo, has trained BJJ for over a decadenad is well known in the sport by people such as Pat Miletich and Randy Couture..anyway he knows anybody in the game anywhere near there. You can find him at Arizona State where he is a coach..if you have a problem getting in touch with him (or if you're even interested for that matter) PM me and I can give you his contact info. Great guy, one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet in the sport.
