Biography

Paul Kelly is a product of Widnes' Wolfslair gym and first stepped into the cage with a 'Fight of the Night' performance at UFC 80 in Newcastle, taking a Unanimous Decision win over fellow Brit Paul Taylor.

Originally plying his trade at middleweight and then spending his time in the UFC as a welterweight, he now campaigns at lightweight. He is renowned for his toughness and gritty ground and pound style which he has most notably used to make a mess of Troy Mandaloniz's face at UFC 95.
