Made weight. Time to hydrate. Don’t forget to meditate. 🙈🙊🙉 Tomorrow I’m making my bantamweight and pro MMA debut with @fccmma. If you can’t make it in person, it will also be streamed live on the UFC Fight Pass. I’ve literally changed my body into something new for this fight. And this isn’t even my final form! 🦊x🏴☠️ #CapnJack #MMA #FCC #FullMartialAlchemist #GingerNinja

Back in the UK, healing like Wolverine, and feeling like the most popular person in the room with the amount of callouts I’ve been getting. Serious enquiries only, lads. The last guy who picked a fight on Instagram didn’t turn up. 🏴☠️ 📸 @nickvespe 👊 @bareknucklefc #CaptainJack #BKFC #ToeTheLine

This is the longest my hair has ever been. And there’s a lot of nuisances with having long hair. Not least of which is it’s impractical for getting into a fight. The solution: The War Braids. It’s not a style I intend on rocking year round, but, you’ve gotta admit, it’s a strong look. 🙊🙉🙈 🏴☠️ #CapnJack #MMA #DBZ

Between rounds 2 & 3, as we toed the line, I said to @slickrickmma “I’m having so much fun right now, mate!” I got a little smile in return and “It’s a good fight!” We high-fived and got right back to punching each other in the face. Looking forward to the next one. 🏴☠️ 👊 @bareknucklefc 📸 @aaronlitz #CaptainJack #BKFC #BKFC25
Here’s my favourite photo from last night. Very disappointed in myself and my performance. Happy the night ended with a win for @blackiechan_soda, who’s worked exceptionally hard for it. (Pictured here doing his best Steve Austin impression.) Thank you to everyone that’s reached out. Messages of support are always welcomed and appreciated. One win and one loss in 2022; life is all about balance. Bring on 2023! But first, coffee, cake, and @clara_sinclare. 🦊x🏴☠️
I’m really rubbish at using social media. I’m equally as rubbish at talking about myself — unless I’m allowed to make self-deprecating jokes. Anyway, here we go: Last month I received my Black Belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Despite doing martial arts from a really young age this is my first black belt in anything. But, over the years, the many, many years, I’ve got to train with a bunch of black belts from different disciplines — BJJ, Judo, Karate, etc. And, after a while, it became apparent that no two are exactly alike, even in the same sport. So I’ve given the idea of what it means to be a black belt a lot of thought. There’s a fair amount of rhetoric surrounding it. Give it a Google. You’ll find a ton. They’re all very self-serious. Some are objectively hilarious. And no one person agrees wholeheartedly with another as to their value, symbolic or otherwise, to their chosen art. To some, it’s an indicator of skill, others, it represents knowledge and experience, and to those budding cult leaders, it’s social rank. (I will be referring to all new people at the gym as “kōhai” moving forward.) If there is a meaning to it, it’s going to be one discovered by being the thing and not simply talking about it. In the same way that you may understand how an armbar works, but that doesn’t mean you’re hitting it in a fight. For me, right now, it’s another milestone on the adventure. And it’s one I’m proud of getting to. 🏴☠️ 🥋 #BJJ #BlackBelt #CapnJack
We’re nearing the end of January. I’ve added to the sleeve. I’m back in the gym. And the ship is ready to set sail. Now it’s about looking to see what 2023 will bring. The aim this year is to be more active. That means competing in MMA, Boxing, and BJJ. Things are already beginning to line up, so watch this space. 🙊🙉🙈 🥋x🏴☠️ #CapnJack #MMA #BKFC #BJJ
#FlashbackFriday Training with @connortierneybkfc before both of our individual @bareknucklefc debuts. July 16th, London, BKFC’s first UK event, Connor’s fighting again, and myself and the good lady wife, @clara_sinclare, will be in attendance. 🇬🇧 x 🏴☠️ 📸 @williamdhartley #CaptainJack #BKFC #ToeTheLine
A little less than three weeks out from the next fight. Weight is on point; shredded wheat with a whole milk complexion. Ready to get the yellow gloves back on and vault onto the @cagewarriors canvas. Competing on a Thursday changes the typical fight camp schedule, but on Saturday we spar. Good people. Good rounds. Good grief. @fightingfitmanchester 💛x🏴☠️
Congrats again to @mrgentlemanjack on a great debut. Not only did you let me follow you around with a camera all day, but you supported me wanting to try out mostly black and white photos for the event and it’s greatly appreciated. Thanks as always to my @thejunglemma family and to @bareknucklefc for letting me hang out!

Last camp started in England with @fightingfitmanchester and finished in America with @thejunglemma. Very fortunate to have such a diverse, experienced team around me. Hopefully, we’ll get one more fight in before the end of the year. 🐝 x 🐊 🏴☠️ 📸 @aaronlitz #CaptainJack #BKFC #FightingFit #GoJungle
