WILL CURRIE

 

What is the first thing you often think when you wake up?

Which martial arts am I working on today?

Coffee or Tea?

Iced coffee with honey.

Tell us more about your training regime? What are the key things you do to ensure you’re in shape?

Running, striking drills, wrestling, MMA sessions, sparring, mobility, stretching, good diet and sleep!  

We saw that you’re from a family of academia, with both your parents being professors–this is very unusual for MMA fighters, how did it come about?

Yes, it is unusual, but reaching the top of your game requires hard work, dedication, motivation, determination, competitiveness, and talent. I hope I share this with my parents...

Do you find that it’s mentally challenging as well as physically - if so what are those challenges?

Definitely, I think the best fighters have the mental strength to cope with the pressure and especially any losses. Nearly all my fights in Cage Warriors have been with older fighters, and I have learned lessons from every fight. I won my first amateur belt at 19 and I intend to become a Cage Warriors champion and continue winning the middleweight belt at the UFC.

What time of the day are you most inspired?

I’m a night owl, but most fights take place in the evening, so it works well. 

If you weren’t doing MMA what would you be doing?

Modeling, definitely not a 9-5 job!

Do you have any vices?

I’m outspoken, but this works well in MMA!

Do you read books? If so, what was the last one?

‘Forty-eight Laws of Power’, my mother says the 49th law is to listen to her advice!

How is your love life? Do you have time for a special someone?

MMA is all-consuming right now!

What are the qualities you look for in a partner?

I like intelligent, voluptuous women!

What do you think sets you apart within the world of MMA?

‘Silence breaks the heart but mends the will’.
