Characters

  • Frank ‘Twinkle Toes’ Trigg

    (Middleweight) Hometown: New York, USA

    A UFC veteran, Frank Trigg has made a name for himself as one of the most well-rounded fighters to ever grace the sport of MMA. With wins over the likes of Mayhem Miller and Dennis Hallman, Trigg has firmly established himself as one of the most versatile fighters in the sport.

  • Jimmy ‘Judo’ Wallhead

    (Middleweight) Hometown: Leicester, England

    Jimmy is a three-time under-16 judo champion, three-time under-21 British Judo champion and former youth Olympian. Whilst at an MMA show, he was offered an MMA fight based on his Judo credentials. Several fights later he met UFC fighter Dan Hardy who invited him to join Nottingham’s ‘Team Rough House’ where he now trains with top welterweight Paul Daley and the UFC’s Ross Pearson. He has been victorious in eight of his last nine fights.

  • Jack ‘The Hammer’ Marshman

    (Middleweight) Hometown: Gwent, Wales

    Jack had his first amateur fight at 17 and his first professional fight at 19. He is undefeated in eight fights after only 18 months as a professional mixed martial artist. Currently a member of the British army, serving in the 3rd battalion parachute regiment, he is also a two-time Batallion boxing champion and recently returned from his second tour of Afghanistan. All eight of his fights have finished in emphatic fashion by knock our or submission.

  • Carl Noon

    (Middleweight) Hometown: Lancaster, England

    Father-of-three Carl Noon originally trained as a powerlifter and body builder. He started to train in kick-boxing and met BAMMA lightweight champion Rob Sinclair who introduced him to MMA. Shortly after, he began training at Sinclair MMA in Burnley and later joined Liverpool’s Team Kaobon with UFC fighters Terry Etim and Paul Sass. He is currently on a seven fight winning streak, devastating opponents with his immense power. All seven of his victories have been in the first round of the fight, many of which ended in under a minute.

  • Paul "SEMTEX" Daley

    SKILLS - One of the worlds best strikers. Phenomenal KO power.

    Paul Daley fought in BAMMA5 after fighting in the UFC and Strikeforce in America. The Nottingham based fighter has a 80% knock out rate since he faced Japanese Judoka Yuya Shirai. Paul's highlight reel features some of the best knockouts in MMA.

  • Yuya Shirai

    SKILLS - Spectacular takedowns. Strong Wresting pedigree.

    Shirai has fought all over the world on promotions such as M1 Global and Pancrase and is the current Deep Welterweight Champion. He has a Judo based style.

  • Rob " C4" Sinclair

    SKILLS - KO Power in both hands.

    Rob Sinclair won his BAMMA Lightweight title in February against Welshman Nathan Beer in spectacular style. He was able to take Beer out with a highlight reel TKO and by doing so announced to the entire world that he was forced to be reckoned with. He then defended his title in his toughest fight to date against Germany's Daniel Wiechel. Wiechel was known as the gate keeper of Europe and had fought at the top level around Europe and beyond. Rob was again able to win by TKO in the first round making him the Lightweight to watch in 2011.

  • Matt "The Limit Smasher" Horwich

    SKILLS - Strong Chin. Submission expert

    Matt Horwich fought on the BAMMA 3 card against Tom Watson for the Middleweight title and is one of the most interesting characters in MMA. A devout Christian, his interests include particle physics and river dolphins, Horwich was looking to take the belt back to his home in California. The UFC veteran had the arena on its feet in the first round with a rear naked choke attempt that nearly put Watson to sleep. He showed his pedigree as he weathered the barrage of strikes that came in the subsequent rounds and was unlucky not to take the win when the fight went to the judges’ score cards.

  • Mark Adams

    Excellent Cardio. Strong Wrestling.

    BAMMA Featherweight Champion Mark Adams won his title in an epic five round war against Germany's Alan Omer. Omer is one of Germany's best up and coming fighters and was keen to retain the coveted BAMMA Featherweight title that he had fought so hard to win months earlier. Unfortunately for him, Adams was on the form of his life and was able to wrench the belt from Omer's grasp with a tenacious five round lung buster. It was Adam's solid wrestling that eventually won the day and in doing so he was able to create a legacy for himself as one of the UK's top Featherweights.

  • Alex "Reidernator" Reid

    SKILLS - Good kickboxing. Cast Iron Chin.

    Alex Reid fought Tom Watson for the BAMMA Middleweight Title after a 3 year hiatus from competitive MMA. Few people expected much of Reid, as they thought he had given up being a fighter to concentrate on being a celebrity and husband to Katie Price. Reid was able to silence all his critics within the very first round as he showed heart, athleticism and most importantly a desire to win. Although he eventually went on to lose the fight, he won the respect of his peers and critics alike.

  • Tom "Kong" Watson

    SKILLS - KO power in hands and feet. Excellent Cardio

    Tom Watson fought at the very first BAMMA event against John "The One" Maguire, winning his inaugural BAMMA fight with a high kick that broke Maguire's arm. He next appeared on BAMMA 3 at Birmingham's LG Arena where he took the BAMMA Middleweight Title by unanimous decision against UFC veteran Matt Horwich. His most recent outing took place at BAMMA 5 in Birminghams NIA and was voted the biggest BAMMA fight of 2010. Tom was pitted against the infamous Alex Reid and he successfully defended his title in a dramatic five round war that cemented his place as one of Europe's top middleweights.

  • Not long back from BAMMA 7, I've got to say, i had an absolutely great night, Thank you Syfy for the tickets, one of the best win's I've ever had. Rob Sinclair's KO of Diego Vital was pure class, great right arm he's got. Although for me and I'm sure many others, the highlight of the night was Carl Noon VS Jack Marshman, the crowd were on their feet the whole way through, absolutely the best fight of the night and one of the best fights I've ever seen, Noon came out all guns blazing and dominated the first round, but seemed to have expended all his stamina far to soon, Marshman came back after an almighty pounding to show Noon exactly what he was made of, pure champion material, to claim the British Middleweight Title, and very deserved it was too. Can't wait till BAMMA 8. Bring it on Syfy, Bring It On.
