Kieran Coxon - True Warrior!!!



The face of a True Warrior!

Kieran has been a strong part of the Iron Wolves Team from the day he started training with us. After only 2 years training he has become a very tough CSL Wing Chun fighter with nice BJJ and wrestling to match.

After some great Amateur MMA wins he decided to step up too Semi Pro. Just at that point he was offered a fight for a Semi Pro Title - taking on Saul Rogers who was 6-1 and very tough.

Not the best first fight for anyone, but Kieran wanted the fight as way to test his future in the sport. If he did okay then he would know he could do well as he developed. Crazy in some way, but Kieran is old school to the bone.

Well the fight was a war and some! Kieran lost only to experience but showed his skills where more that enough to fight at that level. Both fighters put on a great show of MMA.

Duane and me where cage side to support Kieran (Iron Roy)- his new nickname! and we could not be more proud to have him as part of our Iron Wolves Team - a true warrior and brother.















BJJ - Dmitry Wins 2 fights and only lost to the overall winner

Big Well Done! for our Iron Wolves brother Dmitry

After only a year training in BJJ with us, Dmitry entered the 1-3 years experience division at a London BJJ event.

He did very well. Winning 2 fights and making it to the Semi final!

He showed great skills taking side control and also working his sweeps in his fights.

As he entered a group where the other guys would have had a lot more experience he showed a well rounded level of skill as he only lost to the overall winner on points!

Dmitry said after that he learned a lot from the fights.

Excellent!
