Eugene Lee Youry Takes Second Victory!

On Saturday September 5, 2001 Gino Yourey secured his second MMA victory.  The bout took place at the Kingston Armory in Wilks Barra.  Cage Time 4 matched Gino against John Carpenter who was making his MMA debut.  Gino dominated the contest from start to finish.  The bout was close to being stopped due to a third round onslaught of strikes delivered by Gino, who left his opponent up after securing a double leg take down earlier in the round.  Congrates to Gino and his teammates-Ben,Goat,Ranger,Blake,Project, and all the others who helped prepare Gino for the event.

Koch sustains injury. Title shot off.

Don Kock received bad news this week.  After four weeks of hard sparing, it has finally caught up with one of our ACC fighters.  Don Kock sustained an injury to his right eye last week while sparing with teammate Jim Bova.  Don had double vision and following up with a doctors appointment.  The eye specialist determined through a CAT scan that Don has a cracked orbital bone which will require 6 to 8 weeks of healing time.  This is the second injury in less than a month for Don. We look forward to Don making a full recovery and getting back into the cage soon.
