Fight Core

Kyacey Uscola lost a 3 round decision to Kyle Noke from Greg Jacksons camp last weekend. We travelled to Puerto Rico for their first major MMA promotion TOP COMBAT where Kyacey was the main event.

The trip was amazing. We stayed at a beach front resort and Puerto Rico was one of the coolest places I have ever travelled to. Below is the view from our hotel room deck.

With hot and humid weather we quickly cut the 8 pounds that Kyacey needed to lose.

Kyacey and Kyle squared off afther the weigh ins.

From the weigh ins we hooked up with Erik Apple and Babalu along with our local contact Victor who took us out for some authentic Puerto Rican cuisine followed by appearances at the local mall.

Kyacey was in the best shape of his life. In fact the Fight Dr. had never seen a resting heart rate so low on the day of competition. We got him taped, warmed up and ready for battle.

Unfortunately the fight didn’t go our way. Kyle and Kyacey fought back and fourth both standing and on the ground. They traded some heavy leather and scrambled for position on the ground. The mat was like a slip and slide due to a wet vinyl surface which had a major impact on their ability to do anything.

After the fight we explored Puerto Rico in true Uscola fashion by getting off the beaten path.
