"Tragic, selfish act of domestic abuse" killed 'BJJ phenom' Taylor Guerra , claims UFC veteran Clay Guida

Clay Guida recently mourned the passing away of his teammate Taylor Guerra and alleged that her death was caused by domestic abuse. Guerra was renowned for her mastery of Brazilian jiu-jitsu and had won several tournaments to earn the nickname 'Taylor The Terror.'

The 23-year-old Joliet, Illinois resident was a mother to three little kids, four-year-old Manmane, two-year-old Atreus, and Tyr, who was only one month old. According to reports, her family found Taylor Guerra unconscious on June 3, and she was rushed to the hospital, where she died on June 6.

Clay Guida recently posted a heartfelt eulogy for her on Instagram and outlined the incredible jiu-jitsu phenom's achievements on and off the mats. He wrote:

"We are deeply saddened by the loss of our friend, student, teammate, and loving Mother of 3, Taylor Guerra. She was a JiuJitsu phenom; and won countless tournaments nationwide. Taylor was fierce on the mat, and more importantly, she was full of kindness off the mat. Taylor's life was cut short due to a tragic, selfish act of domestic abuse."

Guida also informed his followers that they could donate to a GoFundMe page set up for Taylor Guerra's kids and help raise $100,000 for their future.
