In today’s episode of Across The Pond, you will meet a seasoned solider of the battle line showing the younger generation that steady patience always wins the race. A professional mixed martial artist since September 2012 and representing Ayrshire Fight Academy, Iain Postlethwaite owns a 4-6 record in 10 bouts comprised of two submissions and two knockouts. Postlethwaite has fought for numerous promotions throughout the course of his career as a professional MMA fighter including Evolution Of Combat, On Top Promotions and Full Combat Contender.
