While the UFC packed up and left Salt Lake City early Sunday in the aftermath of UFC 307, the combat sports world is by no means out of Utah just yet. Six days after MMA‘s top promotion staged a pay-per-view event from Delta Center, karate and submission-only grappling take center stage in Salt Lake City on Friday night.
It’ll be a momentous occasion that night, too. Six and a half years after Karate Combat began its promotional life with Karate Combat 1, the organization is just a few short days away from the landmark Karate Combat 50 from Salt Palace Convention Center in Salt Lake City.
