Team VP Athlete Wins XFE Featherweight Title!!

Sponsored athlete Dan \’K-9\’ Cion drove up to Harrah’s Casino in Chester, PA over the weekend to battle Casey Milliken for the XFE Featherweight Title.

After being on his back fending off multiple submission attempts for most of the first round, Cion came out like a lion in the second. As soon as the bell rang starting the second, Dan immediately struck Milliken with a left hook then followed with a right hand that forced Casey to hit the mat. Cion finished Milliken with multiple punches until the ref called a stoppage. Cion won by KO bringing his professional MMA record to 4-1.

We at VitaminsandProtein.com are immensely proud of Danny and his recent accomplishment. We hope to see him emerge as a superstar in the sport during the upcoming years.
