Tara LaRosa, Back Fighting in MMA
After a 14 month break from combat, Tara LaRosa returned to fighting at Extreme Challenge: War at the Shore and brought her 15-1 record to 16-1 when the ref stopped the match in it's third round.
Tara dropped Alexis Davis with a left hook, prompting the TKO.
Tara had been away from the MMA scene since a personal tragedy that no one should have to go through.
Her boyfriend and fellow MMA fighter, Army Sgt. First Class Adrian Elizalde,was killed by an explosive device near Baghdad, Iraq.
But Tara is back now and we wish her luck.
Hopefully the fight promotions will get things straightened out and we'll see more of this talented lady in the future.
In the meanwhile, Tara will be doing her mixed martial arts training at the Philadelphia Fight Factory, coaching on the reality-television show, "Ultimate Women's Combat," and waiting.
