Shane Carmody is originally from Cambridge, England, but has made his home in Cork, training at MMA Cork under coach Arann Maguire.

He fights at featherweight, 65.7kg, and has been competing in MMA since 2023 - a career built on a serious head start. Seven years deep in BJJ before he ever stepped in a cage, with three European golds and two silvers to show for it, the grappling pedigree shows up everywhere in his 6-1 amateur record.

He doesn't call himself the most technical fighter in the room. He doesn't need to be. His game is pace - relentless, suffocating, a mix of wrestling and striking that never lets a fight slow down long enough for an opponent to think. He's currently out with a broken hand, and had his last fight cancelled because of it, but he's already back on the card - EFC, a title fight against Bobby Smith.

Ask him his proudest moment and it's not even an MMA answer: winning his second European BJJ gold. Ask him his toughest fight, and it's his first ever title bout - one he still lights up talking about.

Georges St-Pierre is the reason he found this sport in the first place, and still the fighter he measures himself against.

The fight he wants more than any other is Michael Shields - booked once before, only for Shields to pull out unfortunately. In the gym, one name gives him more trouble than anyone: Luka Nadirashvili.

Shane keeps his own philosophy simple. Fight as much as possible. And collect as many belts as you can along the way. 🥇 

Will we see @shane_carmody vs @michaelshieldsmma take place in the future?👀
