Dan says: “I’ve been hoping for some time now that we get UFC GYM in the UK.

“The facilities I’ve seen around the world are outstanding and to have the first one in my hometown of Nottingham is amazing. I couldn’t be more excited for the city and the people that will benefit from it.”

Since 2009, UFC GYM has opened more than 150 locations in the United States, Australia, Bahrain, Canada, Chile, Mexico, Oman, the Philippines, Taiwan, Vietnam and the United Arab Emirates.
