Fighters Biography
Fight preparation?
Coming from a boxing background means I know what discipline is and that’s what training is for me, it’s a way of life. I know my stand up is tops but I have been working on my ground, learning how to move and get out of situations. I do a lot of roadwork and caveman workouts.
When and why did you start MMA?
There was a boxing gym across the road from my house and I stumbled in there when I was 5.
What ranks and titles have you held?
I’ve won many pro boxing titles, SA Champion Featherweight, SA Transvaal Champion.
Added Detail
- Turned pro in 2009
- Fought with EFC since inception
- Won fight of the night twice and KO of the night once
