Cage Contender Dublin was a cracking show. An excellent card, a title fight, a great crowd and of course, a super solid performance from two of Kokoro’s Amateurs.

Awesome performances from Damo and Josh last night at Ultimate Conflict VII! Damo taking a highly experienced opponent to a controversial decision in what was, in my opinion, the best debut performance I’ve seen in national MMA – period. Truly outstanding. I’m looking forward to working with him and watching him progress.
Josh breezed in [...]
Thanks to all that are supporting Damien and Josh this evening. Sadly, several opponents have pulled out on Alan and he won’t get to enjoy the fruits of his hard work tonight. He will however be in a ring or cage very, very soon. Josh and Damien have put in the time and effort [...]
Do you have experience in an applicable combat sport (e.g. Boxing, Kickboxing, Judo, Wrestling, Sambo, BJJ)? Or, maybe you’re an experienced athlete (e.g. Rugby Player, GAA Player, Swimmer, Strength & Fitness Athlete) interested in getting involved with MMA?
What a great day was had by all! The purpose of our in-house tournaments is to give beginners (those with 0-24 months experience) an opportunity to compete in a friendly and safe environment. This weekend was awesome and we made some great new friends.

Two counts of bad news for all that were looking forward to seeing Shane Thomas and Kevin Carney square off at Spartan 5. Shane received a call today from Marty Walker (Spartan Promoter) to inform him that, due to urgent medical concerns, Kevin is unable to defend his Title at Spartan 5 on Saturday. [...]
Daragh Kennedy (Standup Coach) is looking into organising a bus for a road trip to Spartan 5. Anyone that’s interested should speak with Daragh at the gym or leave a post here (or both!). Based on the response; he’ll look into whether it’s realistic to organise one.
A limited number of tickets for the Spartan 5 show are now available at Kokoro MMA Gym, Dublin 3 (location). They’re priced at 25€ each or £20 sterling.
Shane Thomas was interviewed this week (18th May, 2010) by Ireland’s only MMA Radio Show. Punchin’ and Crunchin’ have been kind enough to give us the uncut copy of the interview.
We’re constantly striving to improve the training options available at Kokoro. We’ve recently updated the schedule and there is now an opportunity to practise (sparring) five days per week. Schedule here (click).
Want to support us? Simply Get in touch and we'll show our appreciation here.
