Martin Day: Continuing the Hawaiian UFC Presence

Hawaii is a very proud fighting state. Not only is it home to the current UFC featherweight champion, Max Holloway, but also the legendary UFC Hall of Famer BJ Penn. Hawaiian fighters are known for their warrior spirit and “never say die” attitude. One of those newly minted UFC talents; Martin Day.

Early Beginnings

Though of Hawaiian descent and where he currently resides, Day was actually born in Nagoya, Japan.

“I was born in Japan because my family were missionaries there,” Day stated to MMASucka.
