The Theodorou Foundation is focused on providing education and resource access to patients struggling in the healthcare system.
Theodorou made his professional MMA debut against Tanner Tolman at HKFC: School of Hard Knocks 12 in June 2011. He went on to accumulate a 19-3 professional record during his time competing.
Theodorou made a name for himself in MMA circles after winning The Ultimate Fighter Nations middleweight tournament over Sheldon Westcott in April 2014. He would then pick up wins over the likes of Eryk Anders and Sam Alvey during his time in the UFC.
Theodorou also broke barriers during his time as a ‘ring boy’ for the all-female Invicta FC promotion. His impact across the sport, and healthcare, will be felt for generations to come.
