BACK TO SCRAMBLERS
Danielle "the Curse" West started training 5 weeks before her amateur debut in June 2003 at Ultimate Combat 6. Six months later in January 2004 she took silver at the KSBO grappling tournament competing in both mens & womens division. She continued to train at Masters Academy / Fuzion MMA in Loughton under Matt Chapman and James Evans-Nicholle, Essex and at Pancrase London under Jess Liaudin and Paul Hines making her professional debut at Watford's Survival FC in August 2008.
She is now living in south London and training under Olof Ingermarsson and Eddie Kone though still trains at Masters /Fuzion MMA when she can. Danielle is known for her unorthodox escapes and wrestling defense. She has trained for 18 pro fights but is plagued by cancellations ranging from opponent injury, event cancellation to the biggest earth quake to ever hit Japan (hence the nickname). Danielle has written articles on training, nutrition and fitness for Fighters Only and Train Hard Fight Easy. She works full time as a Snr SEO Strategist, has a teenaged daughter, 5 noisy guinea pigs and makes soap in her spare time.
