Biography
Patrick’s martial arts journey began six years ago with a somewhat questionable decision: jumping into a sparring session with a group of purple and brown belts training at a friend’s house. Needless to say, the experience was a humbling one, but it sparked an interest in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu that quickly developed into a passion for martial arts. After moving to Australia, he expanded his training into Muay Thai, boxing and wrestling, eventually finding his way into MMA.
Patrick made his amateur MMA debut in 2025, managing to break his hand in the process, before returning to the cage early on in 2026. A Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu purple belt with a scrappy, unorthodox style, Patrick continues to develop his skills at Wilkes MMA, determined to keep improving and put his experience to the test in the cage.
