George Zimmerman had been training in MMA

George Zimmerman had been training in MMA in the weeks before Trayvon Martin shooting

As testimony continues in the trial of George Zimmerman, a physician's assistant, who treated him for his injuries after the shooting, revealed that George Zimmerman, had been training regularly in MMA. CFNews13 had a summary of her court testimony:

Folgate said she had treated Zimmerman for previous injuries before. She first encountered him in August 2011, and Zimmerman indicated that he had "difficulty with falling asleep and exercising with MMA, but that has not helped."

She said she also treated Zimmerman in September 2011, and at that time he indicated he was involoved in mixed martial arts three days a week.
