Frederic Belleton could prove to be the French version of Mirko Cro Cop. Like Cro Cop, Belleton has an extensive background in traditional standup martial arts styles. He's very decorated in traditional styles, holding black belts in Shotokan Karate, Tae Kwon Do, ISKA kickboxing, and a unique form of Kung Fu along with a silver glove in Savate, the national martial art of his native France.
While he's relatively new to competitive mixed martial arts, Belleton spent several years competing in traditional martial arts styles in Europe. He won the San Da world championship in 1992 and is also a two-time European champion in the sport.
Like Cro Cop, he has also served his native country as a member of its elite police forces. While living in France, Belleton was a national police officer, which is the equivalent to a state police officer in the U.S., and was involved in drug raids and other high-risk assignments. While serving as a national officer, Belleton was also a member of the French National Police Force Savate team that competed around Europe.
Since debuting in MMA, Belleton has built a strong 5-1 record competing out of Southshore Sportfighting in Boston. He'll look to replicate some of the success in MMA that he achieved in traditional martial arts by earning a victory on national television.
