Description
Victor Westley Henry (born May 4, 1987) is an American mixed martial artist who competes in the Bantamweight division of the Ultimate Fighting Championship.
Background
Growing up in a diverse but mostly black community as an individual, Henry always stood out. His mother's emphasis on staying out of trouble led him to school commitments and athletics. Despite a brief stint with baseball and soccer, it was a newspaper article about a nearby taekwondo gym that caught his mother's attention. Martial arts soon became a way for Henry to channel his energy and focus. He earned his black belt and then ventured into jiu-jitsu, with dreams of becoming a personal or medical trainer for professional sports teams. However, as he delved deeper into martial arts, he discovered a passion for MMA. Under the guidance of trainer Jimmie Romero, Henry's skills flourished, and he realized he had the potential to become a fighter. It was through Romero that he met his future mentor and supporter, Josh Barnett, during a seminar. Henry's eagerness to learn and improve his wrestling skills caught Barnett's attention, solidifying a partnership that would become a turning point in his journey as a fighter. Henry trained at Combat Submission Wrestling in Fullerton, where he honed his skills.
Catch wrestling
Besides MMA, he has also competed in catch wrestling. Henry won his weight class and the openweight division at the 2018 Billy Robinson Invitational. He then competed at The Snake Pit's 2018 Catch Wrestling World Championships, where he was the runner-up in the lightweight division. Henry won his weight class and the openweight division at the 2021 King of Catch tournament.
