Carissa Wilson is our Student of the Year for Muay Thai!
Initially starting her training at Absolute with wrestling and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Carissa felt the urge to try her hand at striking and we are glad that she did! Carissa excelled at Muay Thai and has shown that she knows how to use her range perfectly in her two bouts so far.
Carissa was given an opportunity to shine this year and test herself on Rebellion ROOTS Muay Thai promotion and her performance didn’t fail to inspire. She took on a formidable opponent with 3 fights more experience and dominated from the opening bell. With well timed long kicks and a superior clinching game Carissa brought home a strong win with a 30-27 score card.
For her efforts in 2016 and her undefeated fight career, Carissa is Absolute MMA’s Student of the Year for Muay Thai. Look out for this girl in 2017!
