Clint Coronel was born out of Fresno California and is now fighting out of San Jose. His athletic ability was noticed when he played football and ice hockey in highschool. His liking for contact sports led him to his love for MMA at the age of 24.
Boxing is his fighting style; and with world re-knowned trainers (Frank & Tony DeMaria) it's no wonder where he gets his quick moves from. It was only a matter of time before Coronel would start go get noticed in the MMA world. He has won the title of Golden Gloves (the State Middle Weight for Amatuer Boxing) and he holds a red shirt rank for Shamrock Martial Arts Academy.
Not only does he compete professional but he is also an advocate in the community as well as being an MMA instructor.
