Why I got into MMA:
The lure of MMA came early and it’s never gone away to be honest. From the early days of Gracie and Tank Abbott, to the era of Andrei Arlovski and Fedor Emelianenko ruling their respective divisions an ocean apart, right through to the fantastic sport we find ourselves loving today.
I really found myself becoming a student of the game when I started competing in combat sports myself, taking up Thai boxing in the UK and competing on the local scene. Dedicating yourself to something everyday and training yourself to become a better fighter certainly gives you a different perspective on things and a new found respect for those who make it their life.
I was a founding member of MMABay back in June 2008 and have taken great pleasure in not only seeing it develop and improve as a new service to MMA fans, but seeing the sheer number of people visiting daily surpass anything I thought would ever be possible. The site is now ranked as one of the most viewed MMA sites in the world and is definitely the leader in the UK, something I put down to the hard work of the team and good taste of the fans that visit every day.
