Local Mixed Martial Arts Fighter Wins in Georgia

Valdosta, GA,12/22/07 - As both a recipient of the Purple Heart and Florida state champion wrestling title, Marine Corporal and current professional mixed martial artist Chris Thorne brought excellent battle experience into the cage this past Saturday night in Valdosta, Georgia. Representing local MMA School, Tallahassee Mixed Martial Arts, Thorne dominated throughout the duration of his contest against Brian Keith Davis.

While Davis came out with very aggressive strikes, this only played into the TCC student’s hands as he continuously took the fight to the canvas. During the first round, Thorne grinded away at his opponent with effective elbows and punches from within Davis‘s guard. The action continued much the same way into the midway point of the second round before the TMMA fighter took mount position and eventually forced Davis to give up his back. From there, Throne passed up several attempts at submissions in order to take a more convincing victory via referee stoppage due to heavy and unrelenting strikes.
