Jeff Allen and his son Lukas competed at the Arnold Schwarzenegger Classic in Columbus Ohio on March 2, 2024, and won gold!
The annual event draws hundreds of thousands of competitors and spectators at competitive events like bodybuilding, strongman, powerlifting, and martial arts.
“We fought in the Grappling Industry Tournament which saw more than 2000 competitors,” explained Jeff Allen. “Lucas had won 6 fights by decision, chokes and an armbar. Myself, I had won 7 fights by decision, chokes and submission.”
The father and son team say they are proud to bring Huntsville back some gold.
“It was an amazing experience to be able to compete as well as being able to spectate all other sports. While we were at the event, the tournament was run very well and being able to be surrounded by so many high-level athletes was incredible,” according to Luke Allen.
The duo is currently getting ready for the World Grappling Championship in Morristown New Jersey in April, where they are hoping to bring home the world title.
