I am Dushyant Patni, a UFC writer at EssentiallySports. My passion for Mixed Martial Arts started because my father used to be a boxer and a martial arts fanatic. It passed down to me as my first pair of boxing gloves were his old ones! Prior to joining EssentiallySports, I honed my writing and editing skills across various organizations as a writer and an editor. My love for competition also led me to a stint as a semi-professional e-sports athlete and streamer. However, my passion for martial arts and training has remained steady throughout my life. I fell in love with MMA through old copies of ?Blackbelt? magazine and VHS tapes of PRIDE FC handed to me by family members who used to travel abroad. I've been closely following the world of MMA since 2000, gaining expert insights into the sport's nuances. My ability to combine this expertise with refined storytelling ensures that my readers enjoy an exceptional reading experience. Although I write part-time, I am a full-time MMA aficionado. My ultimate dream is to become an MMA coach and establish my own combat sports academy, where I can share my love for the sport with other like-minded souls. You can contact me at-

Hi, I am Kanishk and I am a UFC Writer at EssentiallySports. I love telling the stories of these magnificent fighters and this wildly unpredictable sport that is so frustrating and yet so joyous at the same time. I never really used to watch MMA, thinking it too crude or brutal a sport to deserve respect. But, spurred by Joe Rogan, I started my journey to becoming an MMA fan. And once I started watching, I was hooked. The drama- better than most movies, the storylines- more gripping than the WWE, and the results- even more shocking. And pretty soon, I found myself arguing with strangers on the internet over whether Demetrious Johnson would beat Jon Jones if they were the same size, or if UFC 1 was actually fixed. I have taken that same passion and love for the sport to ES and hope to share it with the readers. And the best part is that it's my job to watch UFC events with fellow enthusiasts and write about it. I can interest you in some MMA banter if you reach out to me at

“It Was a Pretty Big One”: Unlike Conor McGregor, Sean O’Malley Reveals He
Turned Down an Offer From Hollywood

A 9-year-old girl from a small town dreamed of being a WWE wrestler one day. Yeah, that girl is me. But the irony of the situation was that I was skinny. Little did I know that I would relive my WWE dream through writing. As a young WWE fan, I was intrigued to watch John Cena preach ?Hustle Loyalty and Respect? while being equally immersed the vicious deeds of ?The Viper? Randy Orton. At EssentiallySports, I have been able to write about these two stars and more covering their lives in and outside the ring. I wrote about Cena?s thunderous return to WWE at Money in The Bank and I patiently wait for the day when I will get to write about Randy Orton?s 15 world title win. Other than that you can find me cuddled up in bed with my books (only fiction) and read them until my eyes give out.

Discussing what I witnessed on every episode of Raw with all my friends was what initially kept me connected with WWE. While everyone around me was gushing over John Cena, I was the only one rooting for 'The Best in the World' CM Punk. The best day was when my hero stood tall against theirs at the 2011 Money in the Bank PLE. At EssentiallySports I write detailed opinion based and perspective pieces predicting the possibilities around the current storylines while speculating what next battle we could see in the ring. I am the guy if you want to know who is likely face Roman Reigns next or when will LA Knight win that elusive first title in WWE. Apart from writing, I also analyze different aspects of content we can cover at ES WWE and how to make the stories more appealing for our readers. I am usually occupied with the latest buzz in pro wrestling and whatever time I get away from that I read classics and turn on my PS5 to break the shackles.
