Conflict In Clinton


Griggs Entertainment will be presenting the “Conflict In Clinton” on May 26th. The main event in Clinton that night will be Cory Moon vs. Steve Campbell. Moon has a better average, but fewer fights. Both fighters are based out of Illinois. Tony Ledbetter and Matt Cooper will also be fighting, which might be the most interesting fight on the card. The reason for this is that Matt Cooper is still looking for his first professional win after two losses. The other fight will be between Andrew Clay and Blayze Rodgers. Clay is looking for his first pro win, too, and Rodgers is, as yet, undefeated.

All Griggs Entertainment events, including Conflict in Clinton, are official events. This means two things. First, it means that they’re supervised by an athletic commission. In this case, that’s the Indiana Gaming Commission. Second, it means that results are reported to MMA.TV. That way, every fighter gets credit for every win. Speaking of the Indiana Gaming Commission, like other state boxing regulatory agencies, they serve the purpose of enforcing certain safety rules. Those rules have been amended since the earliest days of mixed martial arts fighting in the United States, but most fans agree that their observance has helped the sport increase its mainstream popularity.

The Conflict in Clinton is yet another chapter in the continuing fulfillment of the vision which originally led Josh and Tim Griggs to found Griggs Entertainment last year. With this event and others like it, they’re looking to become the premier company for the promotion of MMA events throughout the Midwest. If the events they’ve promoted so far are any indication, they’re off to a great start. What’s more, the Conflict in Clinton itself looks to transcend all of them in terms of hard hitting, unforgettable action. Midwest MMA fans have a lot to look forward to from this team.
