Is Martyn Ford an MMA fighter?

Martyn Ford is planning to make his MMA debut with the Polish promotion KSW later this year after his boxing debut was scrapped. Ford was set to make his boxing bow last month against long-term rival Iranian Hulk – real name Sajad Gharibi – but the fight was shelved.

“One hundred per cent I am planning on getting involved in MMA,” Ford told Mirror Fighting . “I am already speaking to KSW. This is something that was set pre-covid. I have still been doing pieces of Jiu-Jitsu and stuff. They are looking at coming to London in October, and that is an event I would love to get involved with.
