Serra BJJ News Blog

Congrats to Mike Donovan and Rich Guertia for both receiving their blue belt last night in East Meadow. Both promotions are very well deserved and these guys are both model students.

It's been pretty busy here at Serra BJJ with the new school opening up fairly soon. It's been a minute or two since we've updated everyone on some news... So, congrats to the following on their recent promotions...

Just read this article over on sherdog.com about the relationship between Matt Serra and Ray Longo entitled "Serra-Longo an Exception to the Rule" and the loyalty that they have that has made for great success over the years. This special relationship and loyalty is extended to both Serra BJJ academies and something we hold in the highest regard.

Big congrats to our very own Matt "The Terror" Serra on his win over Frank Trigg!  Matt won via KO in the first round after throwing a heavy-handed overhand right that landed flush on Trigg's jaw, sending him down to the mat. Matt looked very sharp and aggressive, throwing several body shots and leg kicks in combination. After knocking Trigg to the ground, Matt landed at least three more devastating blows that forced the ref to intervene and end the match.

Congrats on a well deserved victory, can't wait to see Matt in his next fight, hopefully here in New York!
