About Me

Hi, I am William.

I started out in martial arts when I was 7 years old, learning Goshin Ju-Jitsu. I now practice Jeet Kune Do with an interest in Mixed Martial Arts (MMA).

I am passionate about martial arts and love sharing everything I learn. I created Master Fighting to become a resource for learning about martial arts and alternative fighting styles from around the world.
