If you haven't checked out the website, you should do so as there is a ton of great stuff going on over the course of the weekend.
S.C. Michaelson has a nice article, A Quick Look At The 2010 MMA World Expo, over at WKB and CBS New York did a write-up on the Expo (hat tip Fight Opinion) that details some of the events that will be taking place over the course of the weekend, including one panel where I will be a participant:
Several special events are also planned for the weekend including: live Capoeira performances, US Marine Corp Martial Arts Program presentations, Open Q & A with fight organization executives from M-1 Global, Team WAT Muay Thai and Boxing presentations, a new Take Down Tournament preview by Elite Plus MMA and fight film highlight reels will roll throughout the exhibit hall. In addition, the show will also feature a panel discussion on the Past, Present, and Future of Mixed Martial Arts with MMA news reporter, Eddie Goldman, NY attorney and Combat Sports blogger Justin Klein, and MMA School owner, Edward Anthony.After I finish up with the panel on Friday, I will be meeting up with the students from Park East High School (and their teacher David Grodsky), who will be there with the support of the New York Mixed Martial Arts Initiative and will be checking out some of the tournaments and hopefully getting the opportunity to meet some of the fighters who will be in attendance.
If you see us walking around, be sure to say hello.
