Celebrity MMA: Date, time, fight card and how to watch star-studded event

From Love Island star Theo Campbell to podcast host James English, 16 celebrities will fight at a Celebrity MMA event in London next month.

Celebrity MMA is a 12-week project that will conclude with a Fight Night at Wembley Arena on June 24. The well-known celebrities have been documenting their training and will compete against each other in an MMA fight.

Headlining the event is a clash between reality TV stars James Tindale and James Lock. Tindale rose to fame when he first appeared on Geordie Shore over a decade ago whilst Lock has appeared on The Only Way Is Essex and Ex On The Beach.

The card will feature a handful of former Love Island contests, such as Campbell and AJ Bunker. Katie Price's fiancee Carl Woods will fight at the event as he faces fashion model Robbie McMahon. The UK's 'smallest bodybuilder' Choon Tan will fight internet star Likkleman in a bout 'battle of the dwarfs'.
