I am a disciplined and ambitious MMA fighter and coach , from Ballymena , Northern Ireland , now residing in Sydney Australia. I come from a small town in ireland where not many get further than local level competition due to the lack of financial support , falling into religion wars or battle drug addiction. I have always set out to do more and through my journey be able to give back to those i can inspire and help worldwide.
I have been signed on a 3 fight contract to one of the world's biggest MMA organisations PFL ( Professional Fighters League) . My debut is Co. Main event bout in my home city of Belfast. This is a dream come true.
My whole career i have been training and competing all over the world taking on the best opposition in their home countries aswel as my own. I havent had the smoothest sail and have face adversity and set backs, many times throughout my career. There was times i felt i should hang up the gloves , but i knew deep inside i had more to offer to this sport and i knew i could get to the big leagues if i just kept persevering. By doing this i can help inspire others to keep going when its not going to plan. Now the opportunity has come and i am taking it with both hands to get my dream of becoming world champion status.
With being signed to the European division and living in Sydney Australia, its going to be costly to get my team to travel with me to fights which is not doable in my positon. Its important to have my team around me as i have coaches and training partners, who specialise in specific areas that influcence my gameplan. I am fighting on the highest level of mixed martial arts and to assure i have the best opportunity possible i need to have my team with me. We will have to travel 2-3 weeks at a time , 2-3 times a year. I cannot expect for my team to be out of a pocket to help me as they need to take time away from family and work etc and unfortunately the only way to get them there is by covering the costs myself. The funds raised will cover flights accom and some of the food for my team who travel with me.
