The IMMAF World Championship is the biggest MMA competition in the world with countries from all over the globe travelling to compete at it and bring home the gold. 

In 2022 5 hopeful fighters all training out of Team Ryano HQ will travel to Abu Dhabi to compete and bring home the gold in their selected weights. 

The fighters are Nadine Abbot, 2019 European and World silver medalist, who will be competing in the Atomweight division.

Then there is Jamie Abbot, 2018 European gold medalist, who will be competing in the Flyweight Division.

The going in order of weight is Taylor Quinn, 2021 World Cup Silver medalist, competing in the Bantamweight division.

Next up is Lewis Byrne, who will be competing in the Featherweight division.

And Finally we have Patrick Moran who will be competing at Lightweight.

Each one of us will be hoping to bring home the gold in every category that was mentioned but not without YOUR help. These competitions are very expensive especially on amateur fighters like ourselves who fight, unpaid, while training full-time and working full-time and part-time jobs and Studying.

Mixed Martial Arts is a completely unfunded sport on the island of Ireland and as result of that all costs for this trip are to be provided by the fighters and coaches themselves.

We will try to support our trip as a group with crowd funding on GoFundMe in order to work up some of the funds needed for flights to Abu Dhabi, Registration Fees for the competition, Accommodation, Medical Fees and everything in between. The funds donated to this cause will be split 6 ways between the 5 fighters and our coach who will be travelling with us to Abu Dhabi.

Thank you for reading and donating and if you are not in the position to donate then please share, thank you.
