Kaida Davis

Kaida Davis, brown belt, Category Five Jiujitsu and Derby City MMA. Coming into the Nashville Qualifier, the word on the street was Kaida was known as the toughest lady and one of the toughest competitors in general on the mat at Derby City MMA. She’s been training seven years with stops from West Virginia to Ireland and finally to Derby City MMA. Along with her current coach Nick “Chewy” Albin, Kaida gives a lot of credit for her development to Category Five Jiu Jitsu coaches Shannon Newhouse and Teddie Malone. Also, black belts Evan Dewitt and Jeff Alexander from Derby City have taken her under their wing and helped guide her. Besides being an excellent jiu jitsu competitor, Kaida is currently in a doctoral program in clinical psychology (meaning she’s wicked smaht – intentionally mispelled to be read in Good Will Hunting style Boston accent).
