I’ll be damned if I’m going anywhere. I’m ready to swim with the sharks.”

Jacek Toczydlowski has scored a record of 4-4 across his career since 2006. The MMA Clinic competitor hails from Poland but moved to the UK in order to train and fight at professional level. 25% of his wins have been taken via TKO and 75% by Submission. Tocyzydlowski is renowned for his aggressive style and heavy hands and for putting it all on the line every time. A Cage Rage veteran, Toczydlowski also won Fight of the Night honours at Cage Warriors for his battle against Piotr Ptatinski.
