Ultimate Force 7

Congrats to Danny Mitchell on his win at Ultimate Force in Doncaster this weekend against Team Machine fighter Lee Wedgewood.

Both Danny and Lee stepped up to fight each other after their original opponents pulled out on the day. Danny's opponent weighed in then disappeared.

Credit to both.

Leeds Mixed Fight Night

Congratulations to Pete Hill who continued his winning streak with a TKO early in the first round, due to ferocious punches that left his opponent unable to defend himself.

Pete has been working a lot of his stand up game with Combat Base Doncaster coach Danny Mitchell, obviously time well spent.

Caged Steel Gym

Just visited the new Caged Steel Gym to visit my old friend Neil Hall. What an excellent gym, looks like the Ultimate Fighter facility, cage, ring, fully matted grappling area etc.







Another one of my old friends, Spenna, is teaching the BJJ classes so you need to get over there.

Hope it's a massive success, these guys deserve it.

New brown belt @Combat Base

Congrats to one of my longest serving students and long time training partner Ryan Hunter who deservedly just got promoted to brown belt.
