Andre Winner (Leicester Shootfighters) 14 Sec KO - 1st MMA Fight + Training & Behind the Scenes

http://www.leicestermma.co.uk

December 12th, 2004, House of Pain 1 in Swansea.

This was Dre's first time in the cage and he was matched up against a local fighter (one of the match makers students if I remember correctly) so we had no idea what to expect.

As it turns out, A Winner lived up to his name and showed some off the skills that led to his place as one of Europe's hottest Mixed Martial Arts prospects.

Andre was a member of Team UK on the UFC's The Ultimate Fighter Season 9.

He trains MMA/Shootfighting at Leicester Shootfighters.

@LevoUK do you know anywhere in florida where i can find a shoot fighting camp or academy?

[LevoUK]

There are lots of good MMA/Shootfighting schools in Florida. American Top Team and The BJJ Centre are probably the main ones.

[rufusmcbaine]

better get used to that camera son..

[benjeans]

Remember guys this was his first fight, they arent going to match him up with st pierre on his MMA debut. that was a great performace for a debut no matter how shit the guy was

[rockerD1717]

His nose was straight back then, lol. He's a great fighter.

[ganderlad93]

I dont think the guy he fought was a loser he just didnt fight he was like a flopppy tissue lol and it was obvious he was geting beat from the very start!

[KidBers]

I mean if you got a loosing record iam sorry but your a loser i respect everyone that goes into the cage its a dream of mine to to in a few years i might go 0-30 but i just mean that i thought it was to early to make such a statment

[LevoUK]

i think that's a lot more reasonable point that saying he's faced losers. Yes, it's early in Dre's career, I'm excited to see where he goes from here. Big fight next for him.

[KidBers]

Yes he had an impressive carrer this far but i meant its to early to call him the next Anderson silva

[LevoUK]

And, calling his opponents losers is very disrespectful.
