Ian "Goshu Hurricane" Schaffa


Why fight MMA?
Because it gives fighters the chance to tell their own story in battle. MMA is an unpure style/sport, where there are less restrictions than other fighting styles, so each fighter has the chance to manipulate the fight to their strengths.
Who is the best MMA fighter in your opinion?
GSP
What fighter do you most resemble?
GSP of course! hahahahaha jokes.
Who was your toughest opponent?
Kid Yamamoto - I fought him on a K1 heroes show. I partially tore a ligament in my knee 2 days before the event. That put me on the back foot even more, considering Kid is no push over to begin with.
Where do you train and who are your trainers?
I’m from Sydney, Australia. My trainers are Mick Spinks, Bruno Panno and Igor Praporschikov
What do you look for in other fighters?
Their strengths and weaknesses
What motivates you to fight?
Love
If you could fight anyone in the sport of MMA, who would it be and why?
Kid Yamamoto. I fought him with an injury. He won that fight. I would like to fight him again to find out the real answer. It's not an act of revenge; I just want to know the truth.
If you could fight anyone NOT in the sport, who would it be and why?
That Fritzle dude that held his daughter is a basement for 20 something years! - He deserves a lot of unpositive things directed his way.
Are there Fans, Friends or sponsors you would like to thank and give a shout out to?
Yes, I’d like to say hi to all of the fight fans out there! I would also like to thank Volatile fight gear, Australian Sports Nutrition, Legalized Brutality, Hurricanes Grill Bondi, MMA factory, Mens gallery, SSF and my family.
How can folks contact you?
