longest-running MMA promotions in operation today, will present 14

Andy Medina. Head trainer of The Highway Hitmen, a fight team from

Williams and Gladiator Challenge, and we're looking forward to a
long, mutually-beneficial relationship." He added, "I'm a big fan of
MMA, and folks have been stopping me on the casino floor, asking
about us providing MMA events at the Nugget. Now, thanks to Tedd and
GC, the Wendover Nugget Hotel & Casino is Wendover's finest place to
play with the hottest MMA action in the state."
Gladiator Challenge Owner and Promoter Tedd Williams says,
