More Than a Fighter
Sam Bailey Jr. represents more than competitive success. He embodies the values we believe in: discipline, perseverance, and community.
When he’s not training or competing, Sam spends time mentoring younger fighters and giving back to the same gym where his journey began. His work ethic inside the cage is matched only by his character outside of it.

With this victory behind him, Sam is now one step closer to representing Team USA at the World Kickboxing Games in Abu Dhabi. Competing against the best in the world is no small task, and we are proud that our sponsorship helps make this dream possible.
From training expenses to travel and gear, our support ensures that Sam can stay focused on what he does best: fighting and winning.
