Making your professional debut under the bright lights of the big stage can be the culminating moment for fighters after years of unrelenting labor, resulting in the ultimate masterpiece of victorious glory. In today’s episode of Across The Pond, you will meet an author of artistic vices ready to pen the opening tale for Cage Warriors as the newest member of the Yellow Glove club at Featherweight. A professional mixed martial artist since September 2024 and representing GB Top Team under Brad Pickett, Connor Patterson owns a 1-0 record with his lone win inside the professional ranks coming via submission. He has spent his whole career as a professional MMA fighter in the United Kingdom and is 1-0 under the Cage Warriors banner. Patterson has never gone to the scorecards at any point in time over the course of his career as a professional mixed martial artist with a 100 percent finishing rate to show for it. He has a single third-round finish in his only professional appearance with a time of three minutes and 39 seconds. Patterson has spent his entire professional career with Cage Warriors with one finish in his one and only outing with the promotion so far during his professional journey.
In his professional MMA debut and promotional debut under the Cage Warriors banner in the opening preliminary bout of Cage Warriors 177, he faced Jan Masek and went on to tap him out via arm-triangle choke in round three. The victory earned Patterson the first submission win of his professional career in addition to his first win and finish under the Cage Warriors banner. He also picked up his first win and finish inside the professional ranks in the process. At only 24 years of age, opponents have remained in a perpetual state of lockout and an endless loop of frustration when it comes to cracking Patterson’s elusive passcode!
