KSW Signs Actor Martyn Ford, Plans For 2019 MMA Debut

Poland’s Konfrontacja Sztuk Walki has bolstered its growing roster with another name that is famous for something other than fighting, as it announced the signing of titanic bodybuilder and actor Martyn Ford last weekend.

Ford, who cuts an imposing figure to say the least at 6-foot-8 and 320 pounds of shredded muscle, came to fame through social media for his bodybuilding exploits before turning his eye to acting. The 33 year-old Englishman has appeared in a number of TV shows and movies, including “Kingsman: The Golden Circle” and “Boyka: Undisputed.”

At KSW 45 on Saturday, Ford stepped into the KSW cage in front of a packed SSE Arena in Wembley, announced his signing and stated that he plans to make his mixed martial arts debut with KSW in early 2019.
