Fighters Biography

Fight preparation?
Full MMA training, Muaythai, Jiu-Jitsu etc. Monday to Friday.

When and why did you start MMA?
At about age 19. I always had a passion for MMA ever since the UFC emerged. I did Kung Fu then bumped into a Brazilian diplomat with BJJ and MMA knowledge. He got me headed in the right direction.

What ranks and titles have you held?
I never really trained for competition before MMA. I have a black belt in BJJ.

What do you enjoy about MMA?
It’s a time when you can switch your mind off of all the day-to-day hassles and just enjoy yourself. It’s my form of escape.

What do you consider your strengths to be?
Experience, as I’ve been involved in the sport for a while, and my mind. For your body to carry out your strategies properly you need a strong mind, which I have.

What do you do when not competing or training?
I work full time in a family petrol station business. No time for anything else!
