Mixed martial artists Fraser Paterson, Alfie Lennon, Bradley Brown and Joseph Kenworthy are the latest quartet of athletes to be sponsored by CBDLife and Life Essentials. Our talent management team have a keen eye for the best emerging talent and have helped many an athlete on their sporting journey.
FRASER PATERSON
Fraser Paterson is widely regarded as one of the best prospects in the UK MMA, and has been for many years. The Glasgow based Middleweight had an illustrious 4 years as an amateur, amassing an impressive 10-1-1 record and collecting 5 domestic titles in the process. At just 20-years-old, Paterson has decided to leave the Amatuer ranks behind and is set to make his professional debut on September 13 at Cage Warriors 193, in a grudge match against the unbeaten Geoff Pavey.
BRADLEY BROWN
Much like Paterson, Bradley Brown is no stranger to Amateur titles, having been crowned the Rise & Conquer Featherweight champion earlier this year with a stunning second round finish against Marian Bonciu at Rise & Conquer 17. The TFT MMA man is set to make 2025 his most active year on the amateur scene and is currently gearing up for his first title defense against the promotion’s former Bantamweight champion, Ethan Wilson on November 1st.
ALFIE LENNON
Brown is not the only CBDLife sponsored athlete set to make and appearance on Rise & Conquer 18, his stable mate Alfie Lennon is preparing to return to the cage. The 22-year-old got off to a flying start when he made his amateur debut back in 2022 picking up three first round finishes in his first three fights! Catching the eye of many Lennon has started to establish his name as a ‘one to watch’ on the UK scene. A unanimous decision win against Jamal Vincent then set up a title fight against Hany Musleh at Rise & Conquer 15. The result didn’t his way but the Featherweight will be looking to come back in emphatic style when he faces the tough James Doherty at Rise & Conquer 18
JOSEPH KENWORTHY
Joseph Kenworthy is set to represent England at this year’s International Mixed Martial Arts Federation (IMMAF) World Championships, which are set to take place between September 27 and October 2 in Tbilsi, Georgia. Throughout the years, the IMMAF Championships have produced some of the biggest names in the world of Mixed Martial Arts with the likes of Shavkat Rakhmonov, Manon Fiorot and Zabit Magomedsharipov having all previously featured on the IMMAF stage. Kenworthy will be hoping to write his name in the history books and continue the impressive purple patch UK MMA currently finds itself on.
Speaking on the four new sponsored athletes, CBDLife Media Manager Jake Smith said:
“We as a team, are delighted to add Fraser, Brad, Alfie and Joseph to the CBDLife team. All four guys are looking to end the year in style, have a successful 2026 and we are looking forward to being a part of their journey.
“We have witnessed first-hand how sponsorship and support of young athletes can help them develop throughout their career and we are excited to see what the future holds.”
