Congratulations to Crossroads Brazilian Jiu-jitsu wrestling Coach James Cooke on his first Mixed Martial Arts ( MMA ) victory this past week in Vermont. James was able to win a 3 round decision demonstrating his skills both on the ground and with his striking skills. Over the past year James has worked diligently to round out his skill set in preparation for this event spending several nights a week working with his striking coach (and BJJ Blue Belt) Nils Johnson of RiSE Martial Arts Academy. Hard work pays off, congratulations James we all look forward to seeing you progress as a Mixed Martial Artist.
