A little over a week ago Graham "Afterburner" Turner won the 4 man tournament at the Scottish Fight Challenge: The Brave event held in Stirling. Turner managed to win 2 fights in one day to lift the trophy and increase his record to a very impressive 15-5-1.
At the age of 13 Graham started out with Karate and also Thai Boxing before making the move into MMA with current coach James Doolan. Now 22 Graham has pretty much grown up with us in the gym says Doolan. Although his dad wanted him to become a footballer Turner was to move into a different sport and chose MMA ahead of a career kicking a ball about. My family are really supportive says Turner, My mum has always supported me but she never wanted to come to my fights. The event at Scottish Fight Challenge was the first time she has ever seen me fighting so it was great to have her there to see me.
Turner is the current Total Combat British Lightweight champion and he hopes to add to that title before the year is out....
