In this video, shot by CFFC’s Arias Garcia, New Jersey’s Kurt “Batman” Pellegrino — who fought in the UFC and Bellator — talks about three of his fighters at Pellegrino MMA in Belmar, NJ.
Pellgrino student Anthony Craparo takes on Delaware’s Travis Wynn, while another of Pellegrino’s students, Raphael Chaves, is matched up with Brian Kelleher. And in the main event, former teammates Greg Soto and George Sullivan will battle inside the cage. Pellegrino trained Soto for quite a while, but left the school; Sullivan is a current student of Pellegrino’s.
It’s an unenviable position Pellegrino finds himself in — clearly, he cares about Soto, but wants the guy he’s cornering, Sullivan, to win the fight .
