Jul 12th 2009
Legends MMA / Roxyfit’s – and Revgear sponsored - Kate McGray made a successful debut in MMA. She won a unanimous decision over Gabriella Lakoczky (Xtreme Couture) on Friday, July 10th, at Tuff-N-Uff’s latest amateur MMA event, “Tuff Girls.”
“…She listened to her corner. She executed it, and I’m very, very proud of her. Especially for her first MMA fight. Very proud of her,” commented trainer Jimmie Romero.
Of her own performance, McGray was very satisfied, commenting “I feel like I executed more. And I’ve never executed before. And that was really exciting. Especially with all the new things coming into play. With the little MMA gloves, the fans, and all that. So it’s just really exciting” (as posted by Jay Tan by Legends MMA).
The “Tuff Girls” became the first-ever all-women MMA show to be held in Las Vegas. "We made history tonight with the largest attended female MMA event in Las Vegas history," said Barry Meyer, president of Tuff-N-Uff Productions.
