FUN-filled

Rich Franklin, former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Middleweight champion and current UFC light heavyweight competitor, recently came to Singapore to teach a Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) seminar.
Teaching at Evolve Mixed Martial Arts, a Singapore MMA Academy located at PoMo Mall and Far East Square.



MMA is the toughest combat sport in the world, one that requires proficiency in multiple combat disciplines. Its best fighters know a combination of striking skills like Boxing and Muay Thai, as well as grappling disciplines like Wrestling and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. The UFC is recognized around the world as the big leagues of MMA, and is where the world's best fighters dream of going.
Speaking to xinmsn in an exclusive interview, Rich shared with us that he believed Singapore might be able to produce a world-class fighter in the future, one who could conceivably compete in the UFC.
"...I've never seen a facility that has this kind of resources," Rich said about Evolve. "Brazilian black belts that are teaching classes left and right, and world champion Thai trainers and boxing trainers, Thai fighters and boxers and all that kind of stuff."
