Help “Arm-Bar Augie” Bring Home the World Youth MMA Title!

Meet Augustine “Arm-Bar Augie” Munoz — a 13-year-old MMA phenom from Patterson, CA, who’s earned his spot on the official U.S. Youth MMA Team to compete at the IMMAF Youth MMA World Championships in Al Ain / Dubai this July 2025!

This all-American kid has trained since he was 9, mastering Brazilian jiu-jitsu, wrestling, Muay Thai, and Pankration — dominating every mat and ring he steps onto. With countless first-place medals and a champion’s heart, Augie is ready to take on the world and bring home the World Youth Title.

But this dream isn’t cheap. His dedicated parents have invested everything — now, they need your help covering:

World Championship registration

Specialized gear & uniforms

Travel & lodging in Abu Dhabi

Additional training expenses

Your support means the world to Augie — and to Team USA, which includes 7 talented youth athletes from Castro MMA aiming for gold. Any extra funds will go toward helping the entire team chase their championship dreams!
