Ashley Smith

Ash started training Jiu Jitsu in 2010 after watching his friend compete in his first MMA fight. With two years of boxing experience prior to starting Jiu Jitsu, Ash gave up his gloves for a Gi and got fully into the sport.

Ash trained at Somerset Jiu Jitsu Alliance for 18 months with Gary Davies and Matt Male before doing his first and only MMA fight in November 2011. At the end of the year Ash headed to New Zealand from the United Kingdom and has trained with Jose Gomes under Carlson Gracie New Zealand ever since. Ash currently holds a brown belt since December 2018.
