BIOGRAPHY
Tanner McKlesson started training MMA at the age of 14 years old under the guidance of his father after Tanner was the victim of several assaults and bullying incidents at school. After trying to relocate and pleading with school officials to do something they felt that enrolling their son for MMA training would give him a sense of community, a sense of belonging and an extra tool or two to potentially use to defend himself.
Today, Tanner McKlesson is no longer bullied. However, many of the traits that made him a target still exists. He's very quiet, socially award and has never learned to read a room. That said, he is known for having a violent temper and has had several run ins with law enforcement as a result.
Tanner Mcklesson currently trains out of TW Combat sports and is considered an outsider among many of his teammates.
