How to sign up for MMA?

Shin asked:


Ive been wondering how I can sign up for MMA bouts in the future.

Age-17
Height-5′9
Weight-145

I dont attend a MMA school but I do take Judo now ( Brown Belt ) Jiu Jitsu Stopped at Blue :( . I used to box for about 8 months but quit for Judo.

I have knowledge of clinch takedowns and alot of submission and escapes and pretty good stand up.

I tried asking my Judo coach but he only knows about Judo and Jiu Jitsu tournaments so I was told I should go see my boxing coach but hes angry at me for quiting. I will ask him if its the only way…

    Train hard then sign up

    The best way, I imagine, would be to go along to an MMA class if you can find one. Get some tailored MMA training in and then I’m sure they’ll know of somewhere that you can compete.

    depends on where you are. every area has local orgs. the easiest thing to do is join a gym and have your coach sign you up and make sure you get a good fight. If you don’t have someone on your side they will throw you to the sharks and you won’t have a good experience.
