| Bio on Mike Campbell: |
Campbell is no stranger to competition, as he represented the United States as a power lifter at the Power Lifting World Championships before starting his MMA career at the age of 22. As a professional MMA fighter Campbell has built a solid record and holds a local title belt for the 170 lb. (Welterweight) Division.
The soft-spoken fighter has aspirations of taking his game to the next level and only cares about one thing, being the best in the world. He doesn’t take his dreams lightly, which is evident in how hard he trains. In addition to training in Mixed Martial Arts full time, he is also a personal strength and conditioning coach. Campbell is a student of the game and works hard every day to get to the next level. He has a very simple plan to get to where he wants to be: destroy anyone that gets in the way of Mike Campbell.
Campbell was coerced into joining the world of mixed martial arts by his friends three years ago. “Some friends asked me to come one day and check it out because I was pretty athletic. I got my ass kicked and didn’t like it. Came back to train and haven’t left since.” Soon enough, he made his MMA debut, winning a tight decision over mainstay Jason Dublin. That was his last fight that went the distance. From there, he took out grappling wizard Nolan Dutcher. Next, Campbell captured the Reality Fighting Welterweight Title from Justin Hammerstrum with a 3-second head kick KO. He followed that up by maing Brendan Hoxie tap from strikes.
Campbell then faced the biggest challenge of his career with top-ranked welterweight Rich Moskowitz. Moskowitz’s strong wrestling and fierce chin (he went the distance with the UFC’s Anthony Johnson) are the tools to defeat a striker like Campbell. Campbell answered with a TKO in less than two minutes. He followed that up by defeating Tim Pinney less than a month later.
Although Campbell is known for his striking and athleticism, when he trains he tends to focus more on his opponent’s strengths. ”Training for each opponent means different training camps each time. Doing this though allows me to grow and mature as a fighter.” When asked about his outlook for the future, Campbell is not shy about his goal: to hold an MMA World Title. “My biggest goal honestly is improve as a fighter and an individual every fight. The way I look at it is…if I’m improving every fight and learning from my mistakes…then a holding a world title is inevitable!”
