Professional mixed martial arts athlete Leah Letson unlocked a passion for the sport during her time as a 51ÁÔÆæ student. Now graduated, she recently signed a professional contract and will soon make her debut with Ultimate Fighting Championship, the highest level of the sport.<\/p>\n

For Letson, what had started as a way to stay in shape for basic training with the Wisconsin Air National Guard turned into a hunger to succeed at the highest level of one of the world\u2019s most violent sports.<\/p>\n

From the ages of 5 to 17, Letson practiced taekwondo \u2013 ultimately achieving the rank of third-degree black belt. When she moved to Milwaukee to attend 51ÁÔÆæ, she wanted a new martial art to conquer. That\u2019s when she discovered cardio kickboxing through 51ÁÔÆæ\u2019s Sport and Recreation offerings<\/a>. The course\u2019s instructors Jake Klipp and Zak Ottow, who have years of experience as trainers and fighters, saw professional potential in Letson.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would always hear someone (in the class) just ripping these kicks off, cracking the pads,\u201d Klipp said of Letson, \u201cI would kind of crank it up a little bit in Leah\u2019s classes just to see how she\u2019d handle it, and she was a machine. That\u2019s what caught our eye.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThey saw that I was a hard worker and that I had some talent,\u201d Letson said, \u201cso they invited me to try (Brazilian) jiujitsu.\u201d<\/p>\n

Serving in Air National Guard<\/h3>\n

Letson, who graduated in 2016 with degrees in criminal justice and psychology, served in the Air National Guard throughout her time at 51ÁÔÆæ.<\/p>\n

She began training for her MMA debut midway through her degree, after returning from basic training with the Air National Guard. A month and a half in, she competed in and won her first amateur bout on Nov. 9, 2013. A year later, she had her first professional bout \u2013 a loss, her first after going undefeated in eight bouts as an amateur.<\/p>\n

From there, her journey to the octagon hit a few speed bumps. She underwent ACL surgery that postponed her training. In November 2015, she got her first professional victory in her first fight since losing a year earlier.<\/p>\n

She later fulfilled her other passion \u2013 serving her country \u2013 overseas as an electronic protection technician from May through November 2017. The decision to serve came with an unforeseen lost opportunity.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile I was over there, my coach told me that I had gotten a couple of UFC calls,\u201d said Letson. \u201cIt kind of bummed me out that I couldn\u2019t take it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Knowing she was on the UFC watchlist, Letson resumed training immediately upon her return from duty. Before getting a chance to fight another bout, she got an unexpected call. The UFC offered her a contract, and she signed in January 2018, just three months after her return.<\/p>\n

Lofty goals<\/h3>\n

Never one to shy away from a challenge, Letson already has her sights set on becoming a world champion. However, that\u2019s only part of what she hopes to achieve.<\/p>\n

\u201cI really like being a role model \u2013 especially for kids and young girls. I like to show them that they can do whatever they want to do no matter what society\u2019s stereotypes say,\u201d Letson said. \u201cThat\u2019s what I want to do with my fame as a fighter.\u201d<\/p>\n

Klipp thinks she has the ingredients for success.<\/p>\n

\u201cLeah is very hardworking and coachable,\u201d he said. \u201cShe has a ton of natural talent, but we see plenty of fighters with talent come in the gym. What’s rare is a talent like Leah who works relentlessly to become the best. She has that \u2018never give up\u2019 attitude that so many successful people have.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
