"And your winner, by unanimous decision, out of the red corner, Jason Melendez!"
Alongside Coaches Danny Millet, Maggie Rickman and Jay Isip, Jason Melendez entered the ring looking like an action figure ready to rock. Jason's dominance & strength throughout the fight, which consisted of 3 x 2 minute rounds, is ultimately what lead him to get his hand raised!
It definitely takes a village. HUGE SHOUT OUT & endless Thank You's to Coaches Maggie Rickman and Danny Millet for all the hours, training and preparation that went into this event.
