Adam Watt was a fighting road warrior travelling the four corners of the earth fighting the planet’s toughest fighters. Karate, Muay Thai, Shootboxing, Kickboxing or Boxing it didn’t matter, for Adam it was any rules, any body, any time, anywhere!
Whatever sport Adam participated in he excelled at. As a teenager he loved playing school boy rugby and played at state level. He also was a junior surf life saver and won two gold medals at the national rowing championship. But it was in the martial arts that Adam became a fighting superstar.
