Laura Sanko is a commentator for MMA fights around the globe. Using her personal experiences as a professional MMA fighter Laura has quickly adjusted to the commentator life. Laura decided to change career paths from professional fighter to commentator/reporter after giving birth to her first child. A tough decision to retire after spending years training and learning martial arts made a little easier as she gets to use her knowledge of the sport and fighters to her advantage in talking about them.
She is moving up the ranks in a traditionally male dominated field of combat sport reporting and commentating. We talk about her journey, her travels around the globe for fights, raising her son with her husband and having a ranch in the Midwest.
Make sure to follow Laura on her social media pages to stay up with everything she has coming up and where she will be next.
