Kurtis Campbell – “There will only be one winner”

Aaron East 10/05/2023

Full Contact Contender has made their intentions clear for their upcoming visit to the Olympia on June 17th with yet another barn burner of an event for the upcoming FCC 34 card. Returning to action will be UK standout Kurtis Campbell, who will look to not only make it 2-0 on his professional journey, but also under the banner of Adam Teh’s Full Contact Contender. I caught up with Kurtis as he prepares to once again impress the FCC crowd on June 17th. Kurtis ‘The Pink Panther’ Campbell (1-0-0) is an English professional Mixed Martial Artist currently competing in the Featherweight division, representing KC Fightbase and The MMA Academy Liverpool. Over Kurtis’s amateur journey m, he has fought for UKFC, Almighty Fighting Championship and FCC and now takes his 2nd professional walk to the cage with FCC on June 17th. I’d like to kick things off by thanking you for taking the time to speak with me again today Kurt’s, and also to congratulate you on your upcoming inclusion to the FCC 34 card mate. “Thank you, I appreciate it.” My pleasure man. I trust preparations have been going well in the build-up to your highly anticipated return to the FCC cage? “Yeah, everything’s been going well. Camps been amazing so far, I feel like I’m ready to go tomorrow, so it’s all about getting to the fight now. I’ve got some time to improve on a few things and to get a little bit sharper and I’m ready.” Due to get back out there in April, unfortunately you had to pull out of the fight set at FCC 33. For the readers, could you elaborate on the cause of this? “I ended up going to some tryouts at the start of January and ripping a lot of my ligaments off, so that’s why I had to pull out. I had a little bit of a setback at the start of the year but now I’m back, ready, strong and everything’s going well.” I’m glad to hear it mate, and it’s always good for your next outing to leave the fans in suspense for your next outing. “Yeah, definitely.” Taking your 1st step on your professional journey back at the tail end of 2022 at FCC 32, many were in awe of your victory over Hakem Al-Shamari that night in Bolton. A submission victory is impressive enough, but to submit your opponent due to strikes is something else, as well as within the opening minute of the very 1st round. How did it feel to accomplish such a feat on your prof debut? “It was overwhelming you know, and a surreal moment getting that pro debut on UFC Fight Pass with FCC. And with a big crowd behind me, it was a really nice moment for me and you only get to experience that once in your life so it will be a memory that will last throughout my whole MMA career.” I can imagine, and what a victory it was. I was watching in pure shock, I’m glad I didn’t blink. “Hahahahaha yeah, it was over pretty quick to be fair.” Congratulations on that phenomenal victory brother. “Thank you, thank you.” A statement that pays compliments to your highly decorated amateur journey also that was draped in gold from 3 highly respected UK organisations UKFC, Almighty Fighting Championship and of course FCC. Do you think such dedication to your amateur career had its part to play in such an incredible pro debut? “Yeah, 100 percent. All the fights that I took as an amateur were all top-level opponents and I believe, the hardest opponent’s around at the time. Those moments made me more than ready to step out on my pro career, FCC 32 was just the 1st step on the journey.” The dedication by the amateur scene, especially over the last 5 years has been incredible. It just makes me in high anticipation for the next 5 as most will be venturing out on the professional journeys, especially for the UK fighters. “Definitely. Everything’s been building around them, there’s so many amateurs to fight over the past years in the UK and I believe, the world. I think taking my next step is massive for me, I think it was the right time.” Absolutely, I couldn’t agree more. No doubt many were after your signature when you made the decision to join the pro ranks, as previously stated, you had a highly successful amateur journey. What was the defining factor in signing with FCC for you? “FCC have been more than accommodating to me, they really treated me well, probably the best in the UK to treat me so. In terms of finding me fights, especially on a regional scene and I believe, the only promotion capable. FCC has been so accommodating, and I can’t thank them enough.” They really are a UK powerhouse I have to agree, they really do their utmost best for you guys. “Definitely, they don’t mess about.” You kick your 2023 off with a bang at FCC 34, and will nondount be looking to impress once again under the banner. You are set to face off against Alexis Tsarmantidis, fresh out on his professional career also and undefeated like yourself, this is a great collision for the fans at the Olympia. What do you make of Alexis as you prepare to go to war in Liverpool? “I believe Alexis is a really good opponent for me, I’m happy he’s taken the fight and I know he’s gonna bring it. But I believe once he feels my skill-set and when he takes me on at the end of the day you can’t fight a ghost, and that’s what I’m gonna be in there. I do

Harvey Roberts (5-2-0) is an English amateur Mixed Martial Artist currently competing in the Featherweight division, representing The MMA Academy Liverpool. He has competed for Budo Fighting Championship, UKFC, Almighty Fighting Championship and Full Contact Contender. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for taking the time to speak with me today Harvey, and also to congratulate you on your upcoming inclusion to the FCC 32 card. “Nice one mate, boss that.” I trust training has been going well in the build-up to your scheduled return to the cage? “Yeah training’s been going really well, we’re working on a few little things. Camps not been to intense at the minute, as it’s a while off yet but yeah, camps going well, fires going well and weights fine so yeah, ready to rumble” Images By Perception Promo’s & Perception Theatre That’s good to hear about the weight going well, as many know it’s one of the most stressful things for you guys to have to go through. “Yeah, definitely.” This will be your 2nd outing with Adam Teh’s Full Contact Contender this year, previously taking the walk to the FCC cage back in September at FCC 30. What does it mean to you to once again be a part of the show? “Oh it means a lot, it’s a boss show. Previously fighting there as you just said, I loved everything about it. Loved the walk to the cage, loved the arena and fighting in the cage on such a big stage as well, that does a lot. To go out there a second time, I’m gonna make a statement as I did last time, with a dominant win in 3 rounds, this tokes gonna be even more impressive.” I caught your unanimous victory over Michael Walters, you did exceptionally well. I have to agree, FCC is a phenomenal show to be a part of definitely. As the MMA calendar for 2022 approaches an end, fight fans have had the opportunity to witness what’s soon to be three outings from yourself spread over two phenomenal organisations in Ray Thompson’s Almighty Fighting Championships and Adam Teh’s Full Contact Contender. What goals have you set out for yourself as we edge closer to another violent 2023 of Mixed Martial Arts action? “To keep the performances coming, every single time I walk into the cage I’ll always do my best, smashing heads in. Next year hopefully working on as many title fights as I can to get that experience, get them five rounds in. Fighting on other shows as well, I love FCC and Almighty and the UKFC, hopefully make a return for them too. I love getting the feel of different crowds, different places. Obviously, the more I go around the country, the more competition I’m gonna come up against. That’s what I’m looking forward to, the tougher competition to be honest.” There’s quite a few good shows in London, have you ever thought about fighting down here? “Oh yeah definitely, one hundred percent. As well as a good few shows, there’s a good few names in London as well that I’d like to take on and see how I do against them. Obviously I know I’m gonna win against them, see how 2023 goes. Obviously as I’ve just said, as many title fights as I can, many belts on the shelf is the goal haha.” Looking forward, you are set to take on Jordan Lavelle in a Featherweight bout no one in attendance will want to blink for. What do you make of Jordan as you edge closer to your scheduled meeting on December 17th? “Yeah he looks good, I’m excited for the match to be honest. I’ve had a little look at his last few fights, he looks decent. From the looks of it, he’s not fought anyone too decent, I’m gonna try to capitalise on that, I feel like I’ve got a bit more experience than him, I’m gonna use that to my full advantage. Go out there, put on another dominant performance and the rest will be history.” I’m definitely looking forward to it too, it is a great compliment to the matchmaking on FCC’s part. What can fans in attendance at the Bolton Arena expect from you once that cage door closes? “Another world class display of violence, another display of absolute domination. I’m gonna dominate him from start to finish, whether it goes 3 rounds or lasts 3 minutes. I’m going there to punch a hole in his face, get the finish, get the submission, get the knockout, whatever way, I’m gonna win. I’ve had enough of going the distance now I want to finish.” The FCC has played host to some of the most exciting names in the fight game. As well as some of the most memorable bouts on the UK fight scene, December 17th will be no exception. Other than your inclusion on the night are there any matchups in particular that you’re looking forward to witnessing? “Yeah of course, obviously my teammate Mike Thompson, lefty as we call him in the gym. He’ll be fighting Shem Rock, we know he’s gonna smoke Shem, he’s coming home with the belt. Kurtis Campbell’s making his pro debut, well see how he does in that one, I’ve got full confidence in Kurtis as well. Also the title fight, Jake McHugh vs Sami Hoque. I fought Sami last year and lost via a close decision there, which I felt like I could have won, just didn’t pull the trigger on the day. Looking back on his last fight, I one hundred percent believe I can beat him. Same with Jake to be honest, Jakes a really good opponent, I’ve had my eye on Jake for the last year. Really good, really tough but again, one hundred percent believe I can

Iain Rollason – “It’s gonna be a new me”

Aaron East 06/10/2022

Iain ‘Rollo’ Rollason (2-0-0) is a professional Mixed Martial Artist currently competing in the Light-heavyweight division, representing HAMMA. He has competed for Euro Fight Night, Almighty Fighting Championship and Full Contact Contender. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for taking the time to speak with me today Iain, and also to congratulate you on your upcoming inclusion on the FCC 32 card. “Thank you for having me.” You’re very welcome mate. I hope training has been going well in the build-up to your scheduled return to action. “Yeah, it’s been going better than ever, to be honest, totally changed my game now. I’ve never had a nutritionist, never had a strength and conditioning coach, I used to sort of wing it. In my first two professional fights, I changed gyms to HAMMA, I’ve really upped my game, changed everything, and I’m going full hog as they say. Every little aspect of my game is being covered, I’m leaving no stone unturned this time. If I don’t bring my very best to this one, I might as well pack it in.” It’s definitely a great gym to be training with, HAMMA is a highly respected place, a breeding ground of warriors. “Oh yeah, it’s an amazing gym, the talent that comes out of there is unbelievable. One of my main training partners who’s a Light-heavyweight, he’s just coming back into MMA, unbelievable Judo, training with him has been incredible.” Last we saw you in action was back in March with an emphatic submissive victory over Kofi Marshall at FCC 28. For the readers, could you elaborate on what you’ve been up to since your last walk with the FCC? “To be honest, I’ve had quite a bit of time off. Since my last fight I’ve got married, had a honeymoon so that was more time off. Then both my friends got married abroad, so I’ve been enjoying myself but quietly working on nutrition, training, my body and my mind. Lately I’ve kicked it back up with training again, everything is going up now, I’m on a different skill level. While I wasn’t heavily training, I was able to drill different things. Fight camp you’re flat out, in fight camp you don’t learn new things, It’s all about being big, all about sparring. I’ve had plenty of time to learn, so it was basically like a mini break. My bodies reset, I’ve refocused my mind and I know where I wanna be within the next couple of years so I’m ready to go now.” It’s always good to take a step back and reevaluate things, aslo sharpen your tools and add things to your game.nit makes you more unpredictable. “One hundred percent, this has been the best year of my life. Getting married, my little fella is twenty months old now so I spend a lot of time with him, also with my two daughters. I’ve had a lot of family time, I’m ready to go again now, I’ve had my family time, I’ve had my fun, I’m ready for ten weeks of hard work. I’m gonna work harder than I’ve ever worked before. There’s not many folk that would travel as much as I do, it’s one hundred and thirty five miles to the gym and the same back home, as well as training at The Yard Workington Thai-Boxing Gym when I’m home, that’s the effort I’m putting in. I run my own business but I’ve reduced my working hours, so I can train more. Like I said, if I don’t bring the best package I can to this fight, that’ll be me done. But I’m not ready to be done, so I guarantee I’ll bring the best package.” You seem extremely dedicated. “Yeah, honestly I’ve totally changed my mindset, it used to be just fun to me. Even in my last fight it was just fun, it was never anything too serious I just enjoyed doing it. I don’t think I’ve ever put one hundred percent in, until now. I’m going for it now, I used to go in relaxed, talking to the promoters and all the other fighters, bringing my mates down there with my wife to support me, this time it’s serious mate. Like I said, I’ve done a lot of work on my mind and it’s changed my whole outlook.” I’m looking forward to seeing all the improvements you’ve made. The UK scene has been in high anticipation of your return to the cage, and will be overjoyed upon hearing the news that you will once again grace the FCC cage. When eying up a potential stage for your return, was Adam Teh’s Full Contact Contender on top of your list? ‘Yeah, one hundred percent it was mate. I can’t fault Adam, last time I was on the show he really looked after me, but I’ve also gotta give a big shout-out to Almighty Fighting Championships Ray Thompson. Between him and Adam, they are the most dearest people I’ve worked with. I was AFC amateur champion, then I did my first professional fight with Almighty, then my second with the FCC. They’re both good shows, they both look after you, Adam kept in touch and asked me to fight in December and the date was perfect for me. Hopefully they get the deal with UFC fight pass, the rumours are they will, it’s gonna be good for any fighter that is on the card. Anyone that is shown on UFC Fight Pass is gonna get noticed.” Definitely, I hope they get on to the UFC Fight Pass. It will be great for another UK show to be included there, well deserved if they do too. Adam and Ray really are making waves on the UK scene, they really put in the effort with you guys. “For me personally, those two shows are a step

Lewis McGrillen – “I’m buzzing to be fighting for the FCC.”

Aaron East 23/05/2022

Lewis McGrillen 3-0-0 is an English professional Mixed Martial Artist currently competing in the Flyweight division, representing Manchester Top Team. He has competed for MMA Uncaged, Celtic Gladiator, Vida Fight Championships and is making his debut for Full Contact Contender on June 25th. I’d like to kick things off by thanking you for taking the time to speak to me today Lewis, and also to congratulate you on your upcoming inclusion to the FCC 29 card. I hope training camp has been going well in the build-up to your scheduled return to the cage? “Training camp has been going mint! My improvement has exploded massively, I’ve got some tricks up my sleeve for this one.” What does it mean to you to call the home of your training camp’s to be one of the UK’s most notarized Gyms at Manchester Top Team? “It’s an absolute privilege to be with this team. Everyone’s a savage and we push each other to the best we can, I’m glad I got Top Team by my side.” Your professional journey as well as your amateur has had so many significant stand out moments. Capturing two titles on the amateur scene, and a hat-trick of victories since joining the professional circuit. Even mentioned by the UFC’s Darren Till as being one of the UK’s top prospects. These being but a glimpse of your impact on the UK MMA scene since starting out back in 2017, a perfect complement to your willingness to succeed in the brutal yet exhilarating world of Mixed Martial Arts. Looking back on your explosive impact so far, is there a particular moment that will always stand out for you? “I have a few moments, obviously winning my first title was a major accomplishment for me. then capturing the UKFC title and showing I was the cock of the division at Amateur haha. But the best moment for me was when I headlined my hometown of Wythenshawe, an absolute dream came true and the way I did it was like something out of a movie.” Your debut for the FCC was put on hold back in March when you were set to take on Carlos Eduardo de Azevedo 19-29-0 on the FCC’s 28th card to date. Was this collision with a fighter with such a vast record something that you’d still like to happen in the not too distant future? “Erm, I’m not really arsed about him, if he wants it he can get it. They all can get it if they want it. I think Jamie Kelly is a better fighter than him so this is what I am focused on.” What does it mean to you to fight for an organisation that has played host to some of the most explosive competitors the Mixed Martial Arts world has seen? “I’m buzzing to be fighting for the FCC. Been to this show a few times and wanted to fight there and got the opportunity to. Following the path of my boy Lerone and even Brendan Loughnane who are both killing it on their journeys so far.” As you enter the final stage of sharpening the proverbial tools for June 25th. Your attention nears the Bolton Arena. And the man that stands in the way of making it a quad of victories in the win column in Jamie Kelly, have you managed to do anything in the way of research on your opponent in the build-up to FCC 29? “Yes, of course. I’ve known Jamie on the regional circuit for some time. I’ve been watching him for a while and have wanted this fight since 2019 when we were gonna fight at the amateurs.” Your inclusion has caught many eyes leading up to one of the biggest cards on the calendar year, without giving too much away what steps have you been taking to make sure it’s yet another moment in the cage fight fans will not soon forget? “Everyone knows what I bring to the table. I come to fight and you’re gonna see another clinical performance.” Many exceptional bouts are now set in stone for a night of pure unadulterated organised violence in Bolton, other than your inclusion on the night are there any matchups in particular that you’re looking forward to witnessing? “I’m looking forward to all my teammates’ bouts, we’re all going to war together.” I wish you all the best for June 25th Lewis and I look forward to witnessing your professional journey unfold. Last but not least do you have a message for the fans that will be in attendance and anybody you’d like to give a shout-out to? “Yes, big thank you to everyone who supports me and has been there since day 1. See you all at the fight, it’s going to be madness again.”

Christian Tebbett – “I’m extremely happy to have a place on the FCC card.”

Aaron East 12/05/2022

Christian Tebbett is an English professional Mixed Martial Artist currently competing in the flyweight division He has an amateur record of 6-1-0 and embarks on his professional career on June 25th at FCC 29, representing Manchester Predators. He has competed for Budo Fighting Championship, Celtic Gladiator and UKFC across his amateur career. I’d like to start this off by thanking you for taking the time to speak to me today Christian and also to congratulate you on your upcoming inclusion on the FCC 29 card. I trust training camp has been going well in the build-up to your highly anticipated professional debut on June 25th? “It’s early days but everything is in order with camp so far. I do a lot of technical training regardless of having a fight booked but it’s nice to be back, pushing the cardio and sparring with intent.” Your standout amateur journey has given the regional MMA scene some of the biggest highlight reels the UK MMA scene has had the pleasure of witnessing. 6 out of 7 bouts were won, half of which were won in a submissive fashion, across 3 organisations and an amateur title. Capping it off with capturing the UKFC amateur Flyweight title back in October must have been a tremendous honour for you? “Yeah, a tremendous honour. I owe a lot to the guys that run the show. Ste, Jake and Aaron to name a few. They gave me the platform and opportunities that led me to this point, I’m seriously grateful for that.” Was this the point where you decided it was time to make the switch to the professional scene? “The decision was made before the title fight, which speaks to my level of confidence going into that one. I had given up my Mon-Fri day job and the financial security that came with it a few weeks before the fight with Zack.” With all you need in your arsenal, you now set your sights on the professional circuit. On June 25th at what’s set to be a sold-out Bolton Stadium, Adam Teh and his team bring their 29th card to date to Bolton. What does it mean to you to be taking the walk down to the FCC cage where so many huge names in the industry have before you? “I’m extremely happy to have a place on the FCC card. I’ve been to their shows previously and always enjoyed them. Most notably when my friend and training partner Sam Spencer took the Bantamweight title with a nasty left hook. Sam has been a mentor to me from the start of my career, someone I look up to, so I’m very happy to be on a similar path.” You’ll be sharing the cage with Myles Richards. Also making his 1st professional outing, with a similar style is proof that FCC knows exactly what the fans of the brutal yet exhilarating world of Mixed Martial Arts fans want. What do you make of Myles in the build-up to your scheduled meeting? “To be honest, I’ve not invested significant amounts of time in studying his previous fights. He last fought 3 years ago and he could have completely reinvented himself since then if he’s been training continuously. He had plenty of experience in his amateur career so I’ve not entered into this camp with any lack of respect. Expecting to face a game opponent and he should be too.” Looking forward, with so many fine additions being made to the roster at FCC and countless possibilities for opponents. Would this be a place you’d like to call home as you continue along your journey? “I don’t see why not. If there are challenges to be had and progress to be made then I’m here for it.” So many Phenomenal fighters and bouts are being added to the already stacked card for June 25th. Other than your inclusion on the night are there any matchups in particular that you’re looking forward to witnessing in Bolton? “My friend Tom Wright when he fights for the Ammy Bantamweight belt against Connor Walsh. You’ve only got to look at his previous 5 round war to see how exciting he is to watch, it will be sick to see him get his hands on the belt. Crazy Chris Price too. He’s on the lookout for an opponent at the moment but he’ll be a handful for anyone in the 145lb division.” I wish you all the best in your professional career Christian and I look forward to witnessing your journey unfold. Last but not least do you have a message for the fans that will be in attendance and anybody you’d like to give a shout-out to? “Just a huge thank you to everyone that will be there on June 25th, to everyone that has been there in the past. Makes a huge difference having the noise of the supports behind you. A shout-out to my good friends Dannie and Haylee who are getting married that weekend. They have been nothing but understanding towards the fact I can’t be there, Congrats you two.”

He has competed for UKFC, Celtic Gladiator And Full Contact Contender. I’d like to start this off by thanking you for taking the time to speak to me today Ethan and also to congratulate you on your upcoming return to the cage at FCC 28. I hope training camp has gone well in the build-up to your highly anticipated return to the cage? “Thanks Aaron. Training has gone really well. Feel as though I’ve put a large amount of time focusing on the areas that I wanted to improve and see myself as a much more well-rounded fighter than I already was going into this bout.” The last we saw you in action was back in 2021 at Almighty Fighting Championship 19. Taking on Dan Farrell, Despite a valiant effort throughout each and every round, the night was not yours. What did you take from that bout back in September? “The fight with Danny taught me a lot of things. My style has changed a lot in the 6 months since this fight, and I’m eager to show the world how much I’ve improved next week. Dan has since been someone I’ve trained with down at Aspire and I’m looking forward to seeing how he progresses. The big thing I took from the fight was to always be myself, as when I do I know I can defeat anyone in this division.” Your inclusion on March 5th will see you take on Connor Walsh for the FCC amateur Flyweight Title. What do you make of your opponent for FCC’s 28th card to date? “Connor has captivated many of the UK MMA community and certainly has an exciting future ahead of him. He’s been dominant in pretty much every round of every fight he’s had thus far. Fights like this give me an extra kick up the arse, to push myself beyond any limitation. He’s someone I have massive respect for and look forward to sharing the cage with.” Without giving too much away what steps have you been taking to make sure you walk out on the night with your arm raised in Bolton? “As I mentioned before, always being myself and improving areas in my game I feel I wanted to hone. On the 5th of March, and beyond, an on-form and focused Ethan Ridler causes massive problems for anyone in this division.” Pure unadulterated organised violence is set to take place at the Bolton Arena when FCC returns to what’s bound to be a full house. Other than your inclusion on the night are there any matchups in particular that you’re looking forward to witnessing? “The inclusion of my training partner Lee Quinn is something that gets the juices flowing. A hard-hitting and exciting fighter, who’s helped me tweak a few things in my game over the past couple of months. If you don’t know who he is, you will once the event has seen its end.” Your support to your teammates at the gym and in their corner has not gone unnoticed. Most recently at Almighty Fighting Championship 23. Cornering Ayoub Dahech in his phenomenal performance and W on the night. Many fighters have the opportunity to train, coach and corner throughout their careers. What does it mean to you to be able to be there for your teammates along their fighting paths? “Ayoub Dahech is someone I’ve known since before making my debut. From meeting him around 4 years ago at Mike Egan’s Immortals, to now under Azi Thomas, he’s been a great friend. He’s extremely underrated, and I think this highlight performance on almighty has given him some deserved notoriety. In this game, and life we help each other to progress. Hermetics. As above, so below. Help your peers, they will help you, and I certainly feel a lot of support from everyone I train with right now. This sport is truly amazing.” Last but not least do you have a message for the fans that will be in attendance and anybody you’d like to give a shout-out to? “I’d just like to say a massive thank you to everyone back home in Llandudno. My family, specifically my mum, her sisters and my grandmother who have always been my rock. My friends that are coming to support me in Bolton and those who can’t make it, who send messages of support. My training partners and coaches at Hamma and aspire respectively.” Buy Tickets For FCC 28 Here

Well, the first FCC event of the year took place on Saturday and what an explosive night at the Macron stadium in Bolton. Adam and his team treated us to 18 action packed fights and I must say, the production of the event just gets better and better each time I go, thrown in with the bouts we got to see some wars go down including Sam Spencer breaking his jaw and going on to win the fight! Also Lerone Murphy I’m aware broken his hand in the 1st and also went on to win! all in all an excellent night of fights as always at FCC and we look forward to the next one!
