Fighter's Biography

Training:

I train with the best to be the best. Physically I'm one of the hardest workers I know; mentally, focus is what I'm all about just before the fight.

When and why did you start training for fighting?

Got into cage fighting a couple of years ago as away to improve my fitness for rugby, then BANG, I'm hooked!

Favourite technique:

Name your submission hold... and high kicks.

What does it mean for you to fight in EFC AFRICA?

I have gone from dreaming about being a top MMA fighter to living it every day, it's been an awesome ride and it's only the beginning.

Other interesting info?

I am very outgoing and love life, friendly and always joking around. I'll always fight with a beard and shave it off directly after, so if you look twice because it's gone, don't worry it's me.

Your future in MMA:

I have a big future in the spot as long as I stay focused and work hard.
