We would just like to apologise for the delay in any blog posts recently, we'v been really busy with a number of different athletes for numerous competition in the next month or 2. One of these athletes is Tony Moran.Before taking up mixed martial arts, Tony was a professional boxer who fought for World, Commonwealth and British titles, even competing in three bouts which were named in the top ten fights of their respective year.
Moran took this experience to the cage and has now carved out a successful career in MMA, using his outstanding striking game and reach to defeat a plethora of opponents. Whilst he may be known for his devastating combinations and headkicks, Moran is no slouch on the ground either and is comfortable wherever the fight may go.
Former training partners Quinton “Rampage” Jackson, Michael Bisping, Cheick Kongo and Tom Blackledge all speak highly of Moran and fully expect him to do well at the highest level.
Pro Record: 9-3-0
Height: 6ft 7″ (200cm)
Weight: 205lbs (93kg)
Tony has been with us for a while now working in his aerobic training phase keeping him at a good base fitness ticking over waiting for fight dates. Now he has a tough opponent in former UCMMA heavyweight champion Ben Smith for the CFC light heavyweight title on June 30th.We have now stepped up Tonys training to encorporate more explosive work to train his anaerobic energy systems. Exercises such as explosive pull ups, press ups with claps and tyre flips.
He is working each exercise directly after one another for 5/6 minutes, to replicate the demands of an MMA fight round. He then has 1 minute rest before repeating a furthur 2 rounds. Were doing this with Tony 3 times per week and another 2 sessions per week focused entirely on cardio respiratory training including hill sprints, interval sprints and fartlek training,
Tony is a great fighter and great guy. Sacrifices alot, like many other fighters, to chase his dream and we are confident we can help him achieve his goal.
