We all know the Connor McGregor\u2019s, the Jon Jones\u2019s, the Anderson Silva\u2019s, Rose Namajunas\u2019 and other superstars in the game. However, for true fans of the sport, it\u2019s crucial to be familiar with promising up-and-comers, too. One of them is a Light Heavyweight from England \u2013 <\/span><b>Paul Webster<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Our <\/span><b>MMA <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">fighter profile will tell you all there is to know about this versatile pro.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Biography<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There isn\u2019t all that much biography-related information about the English fighter online.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite this, not a single fighter catalogue or website has information about his birthdate or birthplace. Yet, we have information about his weight, which was last listed at 205 lbs or just around 93 kg. So, <\/span><b>Paul Webster<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> would fit into the Light Heavyweight category in the <\/span><b>MMA<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> world.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Paul Webster&#8217;s MMA Fight History &amp; Prospects<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a professional, the Englishman debuted in 2016. He has never lost a professional fight, albeit he also hadn\u2019t had that many bouts. In the Light Heavyweight division, the man amassed 4 wins by TKO and 0 losses. Paul Webster can be described as a power fighter. He pressures his opponents with strong strikes and always tries to be on the offensive whether he has the size advantage or not. He isn\u2019t the quickest, most tactical or most precise fighter in the UK\u2019s MMA world, but he usually simply beats his opponents by landing haymaker after haymaker.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"UCMMA 61 - Kelvin Reeves vs Paul Webster\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/FE5MX7x000o?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fearless and powerful would be the 2 best words to describe <\/span><b>MMA pro Paul Webster<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His best results are probably the win against Aron Jones at UCMMA 57 and the win against Jack Scott at UCMMA 56.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Given his undefeated result and knockout power, Paul Webster could have climbed the ladder and achieved more success in his MMA career. Both domestic and international scouts, fans and analysts alike were eager to see how he developed and competed against higher-ranked opponents. Yet, his last fight in UCMMA happened in 2018. Why is that? The answer isn\u2019t all that pleasant, but we are all about transparency and will share it in the next paragraph.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Legal Trouble<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you were to merely Google <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Paul Webster<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, besides the fighter profiles, you would likely stumble upon one of the many British tabloids. The headlines for articles featuring Paul Webster\u2019s name are disturbing and saddening.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12209\" src=\"https:\/\/7bet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/1.png\" alt=\"paul webster\" width=\"904\" height=\"602\" srcset=\"https:\/\/7bet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/1.png 904w, https:\/\/7bet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/1-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/7bet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/1-768x511.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 904px) 100vw, 904px\" \/>Apparently, as of 2019, the man had 25 total legal offences and a whopping 16 previous convictions. He has a history of domestic abuse, as he was found guilty of domestic assault back in 2008. While many might have thought that despite the previous convictions, everyone\u2019s allowed a second chance, Webster squandered that with no regard.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Somewhere around 2017-2018, the Englishman was in a relationship with a woman. For one reason or another, the woman broke up with him (surprise, surprise, given his history). Instead of taking on the chin like a real man, he psyched out and started a vicious smearing campaign against the lady. As disturbing as it sounds, he sent explicit photos of his ex to her family. Attached to the pictures were graphic text messages with threats of violence. In addition to this <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">bouquet of beautiful acts<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, Paul Webster also targeted the victim directly, threatening to send even more intimate imagery to her closest people.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, Webster was arrested, pleaded guilty and got a 42-week suspended sentence. This means that he wouldn\u2019t need to go to jail if he didn\u2019t commit another crime during the sentence.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It&#8217;s such a shame that a winning fighter had absolutely no moral compass and not just wasted his career but also hurt people along the way. This is the story of Paul Webster from MMA.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) world is full of dreamers, up-and-comers and exciting new faces.
