Irish Amateur Pankration Association initiative

It is with heavy hearts that we mourn the passing of Portuguese MMA competitor, Joao Carvalho. On Saturday, April 9, Joao suffered a medical issue following his bout at Total Extreme Fighting (TEF) Championship at the National Stadium in Dublin, Ireland. Our condolences and thoughts are with Joao’s family and friends.

We kindly ask the MMA community to give their support to Joao's family by donating to this fund to help cover funeral and related costs. Every small donation will help

The fund is ran by Paul cowzer on behalf of the iapa and the money is going to the family in Portugal for funeral costs etc
