Fighters Biography
When & why did you start martial arts training?

Transition to MMA?
It was through my former coach, he spotted me from Judo.
What achievements and ranks have you held?
Judo Blackbelt
What is your favourite technique?
It is a snap kick, because most people they don’t see it coming, especially if it’s thrown after a boxing combination.
Who is your hero?
I am my own hero, I’ve been through a lot in life and I survived almost everything that came my way.
What other interesting information can you tell us about yourself
I am a third degree Judo Blackbelt and a Judo coach.

For me, fighting in EFC is not just a dream come true. It’s something that I will cherish with my friends and family for the rest of my life.
