Jack Shore: Former UFC fighter turned coach promotes first event – BBC

Jack Shore, the former UFC competitor who now trains fighters on the East Coast, has announced his first foray into event promotion. The ex‑Bantamweight star, who cut his teeth in the Octagon before moving into coaching, will be behind the scenes for a new mixed‑martial‑arts card slated to debut later this year. Shore’s move to promotion marks a significant shift from the ring to the business side of the sport, and his experience as a fighter‑turned‑coach is expected to bring a fresh perspective to matchmaking and fighter development. Philadelphia’s MMA community is already buzzing about the potential of Shore’s inaugural event, with many hoping it will showcase local talent and elevate the city’s standing in the national scene.
