With a freestyle base, it may be assumed that Michael Manno brawls and has little technique, but this is simply not true. Holding knockouts in MMA, boxing and bare-knuckle, Manno is just as precise with his punches and he is powerful. His career, although young, dates back to 2021 professionally but he has been competing on at least an amateur level since 2013 (am. record 8-4-0.)

Manno tends to be a "kill or be killed" fighter with all but one of his pro MMA bouts ending in T/KOs.

The Shreveport, Louisiana native fights out of the local Elite Combat Academy along with Synergy Martial Arts Academy. With the ladder, he is under Wayne Knudsen and holds a brown belt in BJJ.

Michael Manno is 100% Shreveport proud, often repping with a "Shreveport vs Everybody" tee and he holds a passion for building the community up. He also gives all credit to his insanely hard work ethic along with his team of coaches behind him. Manno plays guitar in his spare time and is a proud patriot of the United States.
