Local Youth MMA Fighters Win National Title

Congratulations are in order for a pair of local youth mixed martial arts competitors.

Local fighters “Madeline Meza” and “Bryan Cabello” recently won national championships at the 2024 Pankration Cage Fighting competition.

The two 15 year-olds also won spots on a national team which will be competing at the world championships in Abu Dhabi in August.

Both Madeline and Bryan live in Desert Hot Springs and train at the Kihon MMA & Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu dojo.

Congratulations from all of us here at NBC Palm Springs.
