my own gym because I know them, I know how hard
they have worked for it even if they don’t win. I would
love to fight in Muay Thai. Getting my blue belt in Jiu
Jitsu is on my bucket list, I won’t care if I die trying to
get it! I hope to get better in the sport and at some
point try out for the Ireland team for the IMMAFs.
If you could wish for one thing to come true, what
would it be?

Getting my blue belt in Jiu Jitsu, probabl. I have
watched all the older people get theirs, I have had
to train with them for it and they 100% deserve it but
I would just love to be able to be at that level in the
fighting game or get a Muay Thai fight.
