You probably know what the fighters are like inside the cage, however, we’re guessing you don’t really know them Outside The Cage.
We pitched five ‘favourite’ questions to three of the fighters competing at BAMMA 28 this weekend.
Rhys McKee Vs Tim Barnett
Film?
Rhys McKee: I’ve loads so I’ll give a recent favourite film. Hacksaw Ridge is brilliant and I like his success through adversity and being different! The Wolf of Wall Street is always a favourite!
Tim Barnett: My favourite film has to be Wanderlust.
TV Show?
McKee: My favourite TV show is probably anything factual. I’m a documentary nerd, I like watching the life of other athletes etc that interests me.
Barnett: I try not to watch TV anymore but I do love The Inbetweeners.
Food?
McKee: Anything in a burger at the minute. It’s a chicken burger with bacon and pepper sauce but I eat anything and everything lol!
Barnett: Cashew Butter.
Hobby?
McKee: Outside of fighting my hobby is relaxing with friends and chilling as MMA is so physical so my down time becomes a hobby haha!
Barnett: My favourite hobby is anything that involves risk, adrenaline and nature.
Fighter?
McKee: McGregor at the minute. How can I not say him lol. Either him or Yair Rodriguez as he’s the new age like myself!
Barnett: It has to be GSP.
Andy Young
Film?
127 Hours (it’s how I feel during weight cut)
TV Show?
Spartacus Blood and Sand. It’s seriously badass and epic. I can’t watch it going to bed as I get too pumped up.
Food?
Chinese – extra hot chicken curry once a week after final session as my reward meal.
Hobby?
Anything with adrenaline going like to test my limits, as well as reading philosophy/ psychology.
Fighter?
Dominick Cruz.
