“It Means More to Teach”
This writer has written many stories in the last 10 years about the exploits and talents of 14-year old Dylan Vargas. None are more important to me than the overall skills this young man demonstrates in other fields, rounding out his thirst for knowledge and accomplishments that seems never-ending.

“No Mercy” MMA Fighter Yazzie
Ron Garcia has trained more than a few MMA fighters at No Mercy MMA since 2006, but Adrian Yazzie perseveres despite his 3-6 record and will be fighting June 6 at Buffalo Thunder Casino to attempt to push his record to more positive numbers. He will be fighting Josh Morales of the Jackson MMA.
Coach Garcia says that Adrian has come a long way to get to where he is today. “He has fought some tough opponents in his career and is working hard to get to the top. Adrian has been humble and knows that in this sport, it’s any fighter’s game on any night. Win or lose, never underestimate your opponent.”
