A team of six Soldiers assigned to the 85th Civil Affairs Brigade participated in the event and were interviewed about their experiences. Staff Sgt. Carlos O. Padilla, said, "I'm new to the sport, but I quickly learned that a lot of MMA fighting is a mind game. You have to always have a positive outlook; you have to try to keep yourself motivated; otherwise your fight is over before it begins."
We couldn’t have said it any better ourselves. Check out the full story here.
