Expect to get the everyday perspective on Sam's leg break earlier this year, his pain and emotions at the time, his surgery and recovery, how it effected his ability to coach and mindset about competing, his new opportunity with Flo Martial Arts, his initial thoughts and aspirations, an update on Franck's situation and much more.
Sam Crook is Head Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Coach at Flo Martial Arts in Plymouth, UK and a 1st Degree Black Belt under Marco Canha (Fightzone / Checkmat). He was the Head BJJ Coach at the Francis Ngannou (Former UFC Heavyweight World Champion) Foundation in Cameroon from 2019-2023, where he was bringing BJJ to underprivileged children and first met his now adopted son, Franck.
Sam and Franck have been incredibly successful and prolific BJJ competitors in the UK since their return to the UK, before Sam suffered his horrific injury in January. Sam's battle to support Franck and keep him in the UK is still ongoing at the time of this release.
