When and why did you start training for fighting?

I first started training MMA around 4 years ago. A mate of mine used to come so I started going with him and carried on even though he stopped.

Do you have any heroes?

Not really. Batman was my hero until my girlfriend told me he wasn't real!!

What is your favourite technique?

Ermmm. I don't know knockout punch/kick is always a good one! But at the minute my favourite technique is the boscheck iranian (a wrestling technique) or a body shot!!

What does it mean for you to fight for FIGHT UK?

To fight for Fight UK is a big thing to me as its definatly one of the best shows in england and just keeps getting bigger and better

What was your job before you started fighting? 

At the minute I'm a floor screeder and I still do that aswell as fight! Hopefully be able to retire from manual work before 65 and fight instead haha
