Colby Thicknesse is one of Australia's rising MMA stars. Training out of Freestyle Fighting Gym in Shellharbour NSW Australia, he trains alongside UFC Champ Alex Volkanovski. He presents as a great ambassador for his sport and team and if his future fight results can be as good as his persona, then we may have a superstar on our hands.
In this interview we discuss his beginnings in the sport (Wrestling and BJJ), his gym and training partners, Volkanovski and other visiting fighters, converting dreams to goals and his immediate and future goals, thoughts on training with high level strikers at CKB and even Jeff Fenech, thoughts on some of the kiwi fighters, Joe Rogan and TUFF, and working in Security. Please support this young man and also have a watch or listen.
