Chris "Martyr" CoathFighter profile of Chris Coath by Bjorn O'DonnelMFN proudly announces the signing of the following top HW talent: 10-0-0 with 10(t)KO wins23 years young ranked 10th at HW worldwide and at 71 p4p When we met in Las Vegas to get him to sign his MFN contract, he was more than happy to drink a bottle of Aces of Spades with us to celebrate his contract. During the drink, I asked him a few questions. Hey Chris. First of all, great fight yesterday! How did it feel to win against Don Diego and to stay undefeated ? Thanks for having me. Man, Don is one hell of a tough customer; he'll get in there and shake down anyone, regardless of size. I really didn't know if I could keep the streak alive there but I got some good shots in near the end. I wish him the best wherever he signs to next. You really don't seem to like the judges. Did you see a few fights from other fighters that went the wrong way when it was a decision, or do you just love finishing your opponents? Definitely a little of both worlds. I've watched some heartbreaking losses along the way and hardly any of them had to do with finishers. Personally, I like to get in there and get the job done so there isn't a chance for that margin of error. You are pretty much one of the biggest, if not the biggest , HW talent in the sport. How do you feel about that ? Oh, I wouldn't say I'm quite there yet but I'm glad to see I have some fans in my corner. Its been a wild ride so far! I hope I can keep up this momentum for a long time to come. How do you feel about joining MFN ? We are honored to have you join us! Thank you for that; I'm honored to be here! Frankly, I'm ecstatic to have finally made it into the big leagues and I have high hopes for my career here. What made you decide to join MFN and not any of the other top orgs interested in you, because we all know everyone was looking to get your signature. It was an easy choice, really. One of my buddies was fighting under the NYFN banner for awhile and always spoke about how smoothly it ran under Bjorn. I got in touch with him once I was ready to move up and he got me in touch with MFN. There were some very impressive offers and I appreciate them reaching out to me, but I'll take the word of a close friend over the unknown. Where do you see yourself in one year from now? If I have my way, I'll still be undefeated with a title or two. There are some tough customers here so who knows where it will go, but I'm ready for the challenge. Do you have one last message to your fans and the HW division ? I'd like to thank my fans for cheering me on over the years. I can say for sure that nothing gets you through the night like the crowd cheering you on. As for my fellow Heavyweights, I'm looking forward to seeing what they bring to the table. I'm still the new guy in my own eyes, and definitely the new guy here so this is gonna be one hell of a ride.
