Lifetime area native Nathan Skoufis is aiming to defend his World Middle Weight Title in New York at the NBL World Championships

The event will draw martial arts from throughout the globe, all aiming to claim the title. Martial arts styles present will include Karate, Tae Kwon Do, Kickboxing, Boxing, Kung-Fu and many more. Skoufis began martial arts at age 6, a career that has seen him compete internationally.

The final two fighters will compete on stage to claim the world title. The NBL World Championships will begin December 25th and will end January 1st.
