The Wolfslair MMA Academy is a fight team and training camp for mixed martial artists and kickboxers, headquartered in Widnes, England. The school was founded by Liverpool MMA fans Anthony McGann and Lee Gwynn.[2][3][4][5][6] The academy earned publicity due their signing of former UFC light heavyweight champion Quinton Jackson, UFC heavyweight Cheick Kongo, and UFC middleweight Michael Bisping to training and managerial contracts. With these signings, Wolfslair became noted as one of the most prominent training stables in the UK's MMA scene.[3][4][5]
