Ocean County Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Owner Tom DeBlass is dedicating his upcoming Fight To Win Pro match to his student, Logan, who was recently diagnosed with leukemia.
DeBlass made the announcement on Instagram:
Great to have my student Logan stop in tonight to support our training for Fight To Win. Logan is my student recently diagnosed with Leukemia and this Fight To Win is dedicated to him. Thank you Logan for the extra strength tonight.
According to FloGrappling, Professor DeBlass has already donated $1000 of his Fight To Win purse to Logan’s family so that they can pay for his treatment.
A cause very near and dear to my heart. Averi Clements, beautifully written. You are a gem.
