Its hard to believe we started Vision MMA only 3 years ago. It is so exciting to see all the accomplishments that this team has achieved in such a short amount of time. Our team has maintained an 84%winning percentage at the pro and amateur level. It is a lot easier to achieve that kind of percentage when you have few guys fighting, but as your numbers grow, it gets harder to stay at that mark. We had 3 of our fighters compete internationally over the past year. The 3 biggest organizations in the country right now are the UFC, Strikeforce and Bellator. We put one guy on The Ultimate Fighter, 2 guys have competed in Strikeforce and 1 just got into the Bellator tournament. Currently 4 of our fighters are ranked in the top 100 in the world. It is amazing to see this team starting to blossom into one of the most competitive teams in the Midwest.
I have set goals every year since we have been open. At the gym we write them down and talk about them because it keeps me on track. In 2 more years I am looking forward to not only being one of the best teams in the Midwest, but one of the most respected teams in the country. I want us to be compared to Team Quest, Extreme Couture, ATT or Greg Jackson's school. I would also like 5 of our fighters to be in the top 20 in the world. But most importantly, keep our very close knit group, which at the end of the day that is the absolutely most important thing.
These are huge goals for our entire team, but I believe great things happen if in your heart you believe. I BELIEVE IN WHAT I AM DOING, I BELIEVE WHAT I AM SAYING AND MOST IMPORTANTLY I BELIEVE IN MY TEAM!
We dance to a beat with a flame fueled by passion; as intensity flares, determination rises and no one is asking. "Why do we do what we do? Because how we do it, it's done so well." We tap dance like a broadway show, instead of lyrics we spit beats and never lose our flow. Whether be the submission, K.O., no show or decision, boxing and mma, we are......Team Vision.
