I began training MMA about 3 months later, and took my first pro fight 3 months after that.

I did not have any amateur fights. I didn’t want to do that to my son. I wanted to do it for me. I want to make him proud of me.’’ Murphy began her pro mixed martial arts career in Alaska on June 9, 2010, fighting in the featherweight division. She won four straight fights and captured two featherweight titles; one for Alaska Fighting Championship and one for the now-defunct promotion Alaska Cage Fighting.
