Former cougar Jan Jorgensen will make his MMA debut against former UCLA defensive lineman Jerzy Siewierski in orem on friday. At 6.2 and 296 Jerzy is by no means a slouch. The former bruin from Sparks Nevada was a history major and likely is looking for some historical payback of his own. Last time a bunch of bruins were in happy valley it wasn't a pleasant outcome when considering 59-0. The Janimal back in high school won the 3A state championship as a senior in only his first year of competitive wrestling and eventually found his way to the cougs DL graduating in social studies education. He started all 52 games in his outstanding collegiate career finishing off as the conference all time leader in 44 tackles for loss. Jorgensen is also tied with former TCU defensive specialist Jerry Hughes for the MWC all time sack leader with 28.5. Rushing quarterbacks and stopping the run might be one thing but this is the MMA. Welcome to the bigtime. Tickets on sale at smithtix.com for those interested.
