Mid City MMA

This past weekend, 3 of our athletes fought for Legends Fight League in Biloxi and were all able to secure victories.

Isabella Elias overcame some early adversity and locked in to dominate rounds 2 & 3, earning a unanimous decision for her amateur MMA debut and her jiu jitsu purple belt!

HJZ put on a striking display early in his amateur MMA debut, causing enough damage for his opponent to be unable to answer the bell for R2.

Harley Grandstaff Jr. fought an opponent with much more experience, and after losing R1 was able to put his opponent down with a solid strike and immediately found the back to secure a strangle, bringing his amateur MMA record to 3-0.

Huge thanks to our opponents and the promotion for the opportunity!

Last weekend, one of our amateur athletes, Andrew Griffin, made his MMA debut at Titan Combat Championship in Baton Rouge. After 3 hard fought rounds against an opponent with a collegiate wrestling background, Andrew was able to come away with a split decision victory. A huge thank you to the promotion and our opponent for the opportunity compete. 💥

Last week 7 of our athletes (2 amateur and 5 professionals) fought on UFC Fight Pass for Fury Fighting. We ended up 5-2 against very tough competition.

sean king👑 headlined the show against a dangerous opponent with an impressive resume and was able to get the finish in round 2. Sean is now 6–0 and expecting big things around the corner.

Jason “All Smoke” Asher made a last minute step up to the co-main event. His original opponent was forced to pull out just minutes before their walk out and was replaced by Fury’s former champion that was in attendance as a backup for the main event. Jason was able to secure a TKO finish in the very first round against his toughest opponent to date, bringing his professional record to 5-0.

Maverick Becker put on a grappling clinic and secured a rear naked choke finish in round 2, earning his second professional win with no defeats.

Both of our amateur athletes, Bryce and Jonathan Ramirez, earned wins in impressive fashion. Bryce took his amateur record to 3-0, and Jonathan to 2–0 while stepping up on less than 24 hours notice.

Our other two professional athletes, Merrick Nicholas and Dill Uzumaki❤️‍🔥🍥🍜, received their first professional losses against very skilled opposition. We are seeking out the toughest challenges on the biggest stages, so we welcome our losses and the lessons that come with them.

As always, we are extremely grateful to the promotion and our opponents for the opportunity to progress and grow together. Thank you for the continued support!
