All About Kevin English

Kevin Anthony English was born to Jack (Father) & Lori (Mother) on February 10, 1980 in Chicago IL. Kevin relocated with his Father (Jack) and Step-Mother (Sandi) to Northwest Indiana in 1994.

He has been involved in sports his entire life. His interests/activities included baseball, football, and of course wrestling. While still in grade school he gave up the other sports to pursue wrestling on a full time basis.

Kevin competed in HS wrestling, and was on numerous National Teams. He later went on to wrestle at Northern Michigan University at the United States Olympic Education Center (USOEC) and US Greco Roman Olympic Training Center.

Kevin left the USOEC to be with his fiance (now wife), Caroline, who was soon to give birth to their little girl (Kaleigh). Kevin left competition for over four years to spend time with his family (Caroline, Kyle (9), and Kaleigh (5). Kevin coached during these four years at several high schools and on many national and world teams.

The urge to compete was always present and recently Kevin returned this time to the ring/cage (not the mat). Kevin now works full time in a business setting in management and also trains full time.

Kevin hopes to soon become a full time Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) Fighter. Kevin's goals are to become the best lightweight fighter in the world and win Title Championships in prestigious arenas such as the Ultimate Fighting Championships (UFC).

In Kevin's free time he spends every minute he can with his wife and kids as well as his parents and siblings. "My father was the first coach I knew". "He has been my coach, my manager, my advisor, and my friend". Kevin has strong family ties and hopes to pass that on to his children.
