Gaz “Crush” Corran is one of the only lads I know who genuinely doesn’t know what defeat tastes like. Not in MMA. Not in Lethwei. Not in unlicensed. And now not in bare-knuckle either. We’re talking about a man who’s had over 30 scraps, across multiple brutal combat sports… and come out on top every single time.
LET’S BREAK IT DOWN
•Pro MMA – Undefeated
•Unlicensed boxing – Undefeated
•Lethwei – 2-0 (headbutts allowed, by the way)
•Bare-knuckle boxing – 2-0, both fights ended inside round one
This ain’t just a padded record or cherry-picked opponents — this is a genuine all-out warrior who’s fought in the cage, on the cobbles, and now in the pit. They don’t make many like this anymore.He has multiple titles from previous promotions including BLC and BFBA .
ELITE BOXING
Corran fights out of Elite Boxing in Bolton, a gym that produces pro champions and killers. One of the lads down there, Dan McGraffin, former BKB world champion and one of the toughest blokes in the game, told us:
“Gaz is one of the toughest fuckers I’ve ever sparred.”
– Dan McGraffin, former BKB World Champion
And Dan’s not one for exaggeration. Every fighter we speak to says the same thing — Gaz doesn’t talk much, but when he’s in camp, he flips a switch. He’s 100% professional. Diet, strength, cardio, recovery — the lot. He treats it like a job and a war at the same time. No distractions. Just business.
HOME TOWN LEGEND
But it’s not just the gyms and fight community who know what time it is. Back home in Darwen, this man’s name rings bells. He’s a local legend, the type of bloke people tell stories about in the pub. “Remember when Crush battered that lad in the cage?” “He sparked that unit in a fight.” “Did you see what he did in bkfc ?” — he’s that fighter. Real reputation. Earned.
The people of Darwen back him because they’ve watched him rise from their streets to world stages without losing what made him special — no ego, just pure grit. A fighter of the people.
AUGUST RETURN
And now, the next chapter begins. He’s just confirmed via his socials that he’s back out at the back end of August. No name dropped yet, but the mindset is already locked in.
We spoke to him ourselves and he kept it blunt:
“No fucking about. I’m not here for belts. I want blood and violence.”
And honestly? We believe him. He doesn’t need to hype fights — his actions do all the talking. The way he breaks people mentally and physically in there is hard to describe unless you’ve seen it up close. He’s one of them lads you don’t want to fight unless you absolutely have to.
Corran isn’t chasing glory. He is the danger.
We’ll keep you posted as soon as the opponent is announced, but until then… get familiar. Because Gaz “Crush” Corran isn’t just undefeated — he’s untouched.
