Our Writers:

Graham Cooke

Massive UKMMA and UFC fan, been around “the scene” since 2002 and helped out as a cagebuilder on the early cagewarriors and cage rage shows.

One time below-average amateur MMA fighter. Still rolls and trains MMA, but no desire to try and correct the win:loss ration on his record just yet, his wife and 5 kids take up too much of his time to be able train often enough for that and he wouldn’t have it any other way. Tries to keep his finger on the pulse of MMA even though he is less-actively involved nowadays and enjoys blogging his random opinions and often-poor fight picks on his Blog.

Random facts: Wants to see Lee Murray’s life story made into a Guy Ritchie movie.

Daniel Craggs

Favourite fighters: Michael Bispings, Dan Hardy, Paul Daley, Ross Pearson, Kurt Pellegrino, Rampage Jackson.

Luke Hinds

Watching old Pride fights, eating too much and talking sheet all the time.  He is now to kind of to old to consider getting into a cage or ring and quite frankly not really good enough,  but he has dabbled in and out of a few different martial arts and will happily discuss MMA all day / night long. Also loves Muay Thai / K1.

Favorite Fighters: Wanderlei Silva (during his days dominating Pride). Fedor Emelianenko (During his days dismantling HW’s in Pride).  Kazushi Sakuraba (Beat all four Gracies, who else can claim that). Jens Pulver, Genki Sudo, Ramon ‘The Diamond’ Dekkers (Muay Thai I know, but he was a beast).
