“UFC Fight for the Troops” raised over 4 million dollars.

Published by tloveday at 2:54 pm under General Edit This

The UFC announced that it made over 4 million dollars for the National Intrepid Center of Excellence for Traumatic Brain Injury. I am a veteran myself, and I give a big thanks to the UFC for the work they did trying to help our wounded soldiers. 

 Traumatic brain injury is still being investigated, and there is no cure yet, but thanks to the Intrepid Center, many soldiers will get help they need that the VA is just not giving. 

The UFC put together a great card for the event. Some of the memorable fights included, a knock out by Koscheck at 2:15 of the first round and a devastating knock out by Mike Swick at 0:33 of the first round.

    My husband and I are both veterans. It’s nice to learn the UFC is doing something to help our military troops. I hadn’t heard about this. Thanks for the info!
