Still in the infancy, but strategically growing, it’s Greg Jones’ and Henri Hooft’s vision to build Kill Cliff FC into a world-class sports organization that will rival those in the Big 4 of Sports. Eg. Baseball, Basketball, Football, Hockey.
With a holistic, focused, and long-term approach, Kill Cliff FC’s Professional Development Program’s Mission and Initiative is for fighters to ‘Retire Once’.
A fighters career is a short period on the graph of life, but those years are the most critical time for their earning potential and long term stability.
With as much focus as learning the combative arts and winning in the 10-15 years of an active career, the Kill Cliff’s PDP is equally honed into the results for the proceeding 40-45 years of life.
From the start of the Amateur Ranks through Bellator & UFC World Championships and retirement, our professional development verticals are all-inclusive and designed for the full 360° it takes to succeed in all aspects and phases of a fighters career and life.
Our goal oriented vision is that the Kill Cliff PDP is not only responsible for ensuring that our athletes aren’t losing professional steps and opportunities during their quest to be the best fighters in the world, but gaining them.
