Dylan “The Villain“ Andrews
Dylan is a mixed martial artist (MMA) from New Zealand.
Dylan started his MMA training in 2004 in the Lion’s Den Academy in Sydney, having stumbled into the Den while looking for Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) videos. Dylan had his first professional MMA fight some two years later where he won by TKO after only 52 seconds in the first round!
Over the next few years, Dylan built his reputation as a tough and dedicated fighter, winning his next five fights inside the first two rounds. Dylan has been a professional competitor since 2006, he has competed in the UFC, Cage FC, Australian FC, Xtreme MMA2, Legend FC, was a Nitro Middleweight Champion, NSW Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Champion (many times) and a semi-finalist on FX’s The Ultimate Fighter.
Dylan has two beautiful children and lives on the Gold Coast, where he continues his MMA training and fighting. Dylan works in the fitness industry where he is passionate about working with clients to help them achieve their wellness goals. His nickname is ‘The Villain’, but Dylan says he is nothing of the sort, that the nickname was a suggestion by his coach – as it rhymed with Dylan…… after doing Dylan’s HIIT workouts I’m not so sure…. You be the judge!
