KOA
Combat, headed by Jay Javellana, held their inaugural fight night
on May 7th inside the Green River CC gym in Auburn, with a total
of 8 amateur fights taking place as well as some awesome music
from the Inochi Taiko drum group. There was also a very special
raffle with the proceeds going to help one of the nicest guys in
the sport, Kalahi Martial Arts' head Lou Faralan, who is fighting Leukemia.

Two
Championship belts were up for grabs in the 145 lb and 155 lb
weight classes. In the first of these, Team Blackout's Chad Tilton
submitted Paul Begnaud by way of guillotine choke late in the 3rd
round to win the Featherweight Title.
The
Lightweight belt went to Paul DeVeglio out of Enumclaw's Combat
Sports & Fitness who took every round from Ethnic Fights MMA's
Paul Njoku in a fight that was much closer than the judges
scorecards would seem to reveal.
Jay Javellana
and his wife Lyrlene also own Venom Fight Skinz which was one of
the events many sponsors that also included Elite Massage
Professionals, Bakke Brothers Brand Jerky, Ali'i & Sumo's
Hawaiian Grill, Applebees, & Costco. More info on KOA Combat
