He has won a gold medal in the 2019 August AMMAK Bengaluru Open MMA National Championship.
Coming from KOI Combat Academy, he has had the support of an amazing staff in his quest to achieve what he has. They support athletes who are talented but have no means of supporting themselves, although they are on the lookout for sponsors looking to donate and help their cause. I had the chance to talk to Dinesh regarding his MMA career, future goals, UFC star he looks up to, and more!
Dinesh talked about his love for wrestling and how UFC’s Khabib Nurmagomedov influenced him to get into wrestling. He also talked about his goal regarding the representation of Manipur on the national stage.
He has always had the support of a really great family and friend circle, with some of them even loaning him money to overcome his financial situation.
Dinesh is targeting 2020 as the year when he finally breaks into International MMA.
According to Dinesh, there was always a political situation when it came to wrestling with some states favored over others. Such a situation no longer exists for him, allowing him to let loose and let his real ability shine through.
KOI Combat Academy has been a crucial part of Dinesh’s journey in MMA.
