UFC 309 Jones vs Miocic: Oban Elliott ready to realise MSG dream

Oban’s father Paul was a huge influence on him, and his decision to take up combat sports.

He would put boxing gloves on Oban and his brother, as they tried their hand at boxing, taekwondo, judo and kickboxing.

However, Paul took his own life when Oban was just seven years old.

Oban has a tattoo in memory of him as he looks to bring him on his journey.

“To get the fight in MSG, I just like to think back to all those hard times I went through,” said Elliott.

“Where I am now, nobody can take my body of work away from me.

“I never wanted to go to New York until I fought there, Madison Square Garden in particular, because of how famous it is.

“All those silly people who doubted me, they’ll have to watch me fight in the world’s most famous arena, living my dream, living my best life.”
