ACA's Daniel Beleza, second-degree black belt in BJJ.

Just a reminder that York's Academy of Combative Arts, 53 E. North St., York -- in the same building as the Greyhound bus station -- is having an Open House Party Sunday Nov 1st from noon to 4.

I'm kind of guessing, but I feel pretty certain that co-owners Joe Duffey and Frank Nguyen will be there, along with Beleza. I know they have a couple of striking coaches, so you might see those guys as well. Maybe even some of the academy's fight team, or other members. Also, there will probably be some light refreshments, although Frank said don't expect any sushi (he also runs Keo Asian Grill and Sushi Restaurant downtown).

Josh Aarons, right, fires a shot at Joe Duffey, left. Joe, making his amateur debut, lost by unanimous decision but showed he has a tough chin and kept fighting against the more experienced Aarons.

Duffey, co-owner of York's Academy of Combative Arts, sent me this email:
"First, obviously Friday night didn't go as planned for
us. But fortunately, Josh Kessler got the W with an Americana to give
us something to celebrate. We did have a good showing the next day
though at the CPWC Grappling Tourney. I got a little bit of redemption
by winning all my matches via triangle submission to take place. Also,
we had several guys place 1st, 2nd, and 3rd in the tourney. Finally,
we are having our Open House Party Sunday Nov 1st from noon to 4."

Lewis "The Beast" Rumsey, set to make his pro debut at Central Pennsylvania Warrior Challenge III this Friday, just put out a message on mmamelee:
"Dnt kno if i­ got an oppe­nent yet."
Say tuned.

According to Lewis "The Beast" Rumsey's myspace, the Williamsport fighter will turn pro in November. Fighting out of Team Vicious, Rumsey has amassed an 8-4 record and recently gained a sponsor in Tattoo Fightwear. Rumsey fought Mike Oberdick at the first Central Pennsylvania Warrior Challenge in April, beating Dickie by unanimous decision. Next, he'll defend the LHW title he won at CPWC II on July 18.

According to MMA in PA, the card for tonight's Pain on Penn Street has changed and it appears as though Lewis "The Beast" Rumsey and Justin Inch are off the card.
