Five XFN Champions To Compete In IMMAF World Tournament

Five XFN Champions To Compete In IMMAF World Tournament

Xtreme Fighting Nation (XFN) has five champions that will head to the IMMAF World Tournament in Dubai in early January. The promotion produces some of the best talent out of Florida and is being well represented at the biggest stage in the amateur world. Naomie Young, David Camacho, Kat Nelson, Mervin Miller, and Daniel Morrison will be representing Team USA at the upcoming tournament.

The World Tournament for IMMAF is a five-day event that hosts 72 countries from across the globe. Each morning, fighters weigh in and compete on that day. The tournament is a last man standing of sorts with the champion being crowned the final day on whoever is undefeated.

XFN and IMMAF

XFN has been putting on events since 2013. Based in Florida, they have a hotbed of some of the best talent amateur MMA has to offer.

Naomie Young captured her belt at XFN 37 in August. She won the fight via rear naked choke in round one to capture the strawweight belt. David Camacho is the bantamweight champion and won his on the same card as young.

In the next event, at XFN 38 in September, Kat Nelson won the women’s featherweight title with a fifty second knockout in the main event.

At XFN 39 in November, Mervin Miller is the light heavyweight champion and defeated Gabriel Concepcion via split decision to win the belt. Finally, Daniel Morrison won his welterweight belt in the main event with a nine second knockout.

How to help

All of these fighters have a very huge opportunity to do something special at the IMMAF World Tournament. But, as amateurs, it’s not all easy. Getting to Abu Dhabi will be the tough task for them. The young fighters need your help to cover travel costs to get to the tournament to represent Team USA. A few have started a GoFundMe to cover those expenses. Donate below and help represent Team USA in January!
