Ancient fights, modern warriors

This week on the podcast, we’re stepping into the ring—literally and figuratively. I’m joined by Dan Robson, a Sunderland-born martial arts enthusiast who’s gone from working Magaluf’s nightlife to organising Mallorca’s newest MMA event, Fight Island Championship. We talk discipline, drive, and what it takes to turn a passion into a powerhouse.

But we’re not stopping there. It’s also fiesta season in Sóller, where the locals recreate one of the island’s most dramatic historical battles: the clash between the Moors and the Christians. Think cannon fire, costumes, and a whole lot of chaos in the streets.

From fight nights to centuries-old fiestas, this episode is all about Mallorca’s fighting spirit—in every sense of the word.

...and an interview with 6Points organiser Bryan Visser from a few years ago, we must to another soon. https://player.captivate.fm/episode/b2f49d15-49e3-4900-9b1d-0c4bc0a892c7/
