Ever since Jeff Meyer took over the day-to-day operations of the promotion following his brother Barry’s tragic death in 2013, his goal has been to keep his brother’s legacy alive by discovering the next big stars in MMA.

The Las Vegas-based amateur MMA organization has held fights in Nevada since 2003. Tuff-N-Uff has spawned the careers of fighters like Ronda Rousey, Ryan Couture, Alan Jouban, Jon Fitch and more.

Tuff-N-Uff will host its next event, ‘Mayhem in Mesquite IX’, in Mesquite, Nevada, on Aug. 13, 2016.
