Bhubesi Kruger from Secunda shows some steel at MMA championship
Coach Cedric is proud of his student.
Bhubesi Kruger (13), a mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter at Dominators Den, won the Youth MMA Championship held in Gauteng on Saturday, May 21.
This is the second consecutive year that Kruger is crowned as the youth MMA champion.
He took part in the U/13 division and won by an arm-bar submission in the first round.
His coach, Cedric Doyle, said this championship has a very good structure with no strikes to the head until the athletes are 18 years old or older.
Kruger has been training with Doyle at Dominators Den for the past four years.
“This makes MMA a very safe and great sport in which to compete,” said Doyle.
“The sky is the limit for this young champ and we raise Jesus always for these achievements.”
