  Fighter’s death ruled “accidental” web posted June 30, 2010 AIKEN – Aiken County Coroner Tim Carlton said the death of 30-year-old mix martial arts fighter Michael Kirkman would be ruled accidental following an autopsy performed on Tuesday in Newberry. “Michael Kirkham died from a subarachnoid hemorrhage of the brain due to the injuries/blows to the head he received during the MMA match,” Carlton said. Mr. Kirkham was a participant in the Professional Mixed Martial Arts Competition at the USCA Convocation Center on Saturday June 26, 2010. During the 1st round of his professional debut, Mr. Kirkham received several blows to the head, which caused the referee to stop the bout. Emergency Medical Technicians worked feverishly after Kirkman went down and performed CPR as he was transported to Aiken Regional Medical Center. He remained unconscious with inoperable head injuries and was pronounced dead at 8:25 Monday morning. Video of the fight from the SC Athletic Commission is being awaited for review, Carlton said. Toxicology results are pending. © Copyright 2010
