Willie ‘Whoop Ass’ Gates is an American mixed martial artist with fight experience in promotions like Bellator and the UFC. With a record of 12-13 and most wins coming by T/KO and most losses coming by submission, Gates is a perfect addition to the BKFC roster!
Having taken two years off from competition, Gates looks to come back and make a statement in the Squared Circle against Brandon Meneses on home soil at BKFC 76.
Outside of fighting, Gates is a father, husband and comedian. His sense of humor and lifestyle outside of the cage help keep him grounded and he’s a dangerous competitor with a lot to fight for!
