Zion Clark is a name you will not soon forget.
Clark was born without any legs due to a rare birth disorder called caudal regression syndrome but has not let that stop him from achieving his goals, which included making his professional MMA debut on Saturday.
Clark, a 25-year-old former collegiate wrestler, won his professional MMA debut on Saturday, sweeping the judges’ scorecards to earn a unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27) over Eugene Murray at Gladiator Challenge: Seasons Beatings.
Clark celebrated his victory with a backflip inside the cage.
Before the fight, he sent a motivational message in a post.
“My Pro MMA debut. You will always have haters and doubters, remember in life people are going not question what you can and can’t do the same way they question their own abilities. I’m here to show you, YOU CAN DO WHAT YOU SET YOUR MIND TO,” he wrote before defeating Murray.
Clark currently holds three Guinness World Records. Back in 2021, he set the record for fastest man with two hands, then he set two more records this year when he broke the mark for most diamond push-ups in three minutes and the highest box-jump record with his hands.
