Hadyn Ward is a Northampton-based professional cage fighter (MMA). He enjoys Thai boxing, boxing and Unified Fighting Arts which covers all combat styles.
He has a black belt in karate, a black belt in kickboxing and is a Muay Thai boxing instructor.
Haydn has been training in martial since a young age and began competing at 10 years old in light continuous competitions. This progressed from light contact, to semi contact, then the ultimate (legal) stage of mixed martial arts full contact fighting.
He lives for martial arts, not just for competing but he reveres the mental and physical development. Prior to turning professional at 18, Hadyn used to compete (and still practises) in natural powerlifting/ bodybuilding.
He holds a number of impressive records: In MMA he has a 12 second knock-out in from the mounted position, which is the only one recorded in the UK. It’s a position where 80 percent of people will lose and the other 20 percent can reverse it, but nobody has scored a knock out from it.
He hopes to become a qualified strength and conditioning coach to work with athletes in their physical preparation for competition. Hadyn dreams of running his own fitness and martial arts gym to work full time as an instructor in both areas.
As a regular blogger Hadyn will reveal how he gets on in his professional career as he travels the globe competing to win championship titles along the way.
