Michael is a focused brawler, so his attacks and tactics are thought through, but he is not afraid to let his hands go when required. He's not a big talker or self promoter, preferring to let his actions speak for me. That said, he's not afraid to call people out where required. He's quite but honest, the definition of all killer no filler. Michael Santos grew up in Melbourne, Australia in a pretty big Italian-Australian family. He was a brawler in his young age, getting into fights with other kids, but otherwise had no real fighting experience. He joined a local backyard wrestling federation called IYHWF. He stayed there and learned the craft until the company moved location and became big enough to go live, becoming a 2 x IYHWF Champion during his tenure. He enjoyed it, but he always felt more comfortable with raw combat. He took some time off after the birth of his second child, and has decided to take the leap into MMA, finally pulling the trigger on a long thought out decision.
