5 Things To Know About Mia Trevorrow Ahead Of The Inner Circle 33
From a furry friend to a late career pivot, here are some fun facts about the Brit ahead of her clash on October 2.
Mia "Her" Trevorrow, a 27-year-old English striker, is set to make it three consecutive wins at The Inner Circle 33 on October 2 in Bangkok's Lumpinee Stadium. This atomweight Muay Thai showdown against Sheila "La Chinita" Barrios marks the veteran's return to the global stage. Here are five crucial details about the Cornwall native that will shape her upcoming bout.
1. Trevorrow's Muay Thai journey began as an adult, at 21 years old. Her introduction to the sport came through a childhood friend, former ONE Championship star Amber Kitchen, who gifted her gloves and encouraged her to join the gym. Within a few years, Trevorrow claimed the ISKA British Title and the WRSA Muay Thai Championship, ultimately ranking number one in the UK.
2. Before stepping into the ring, Trevorrow was a competitive swimmer. Her early life was defined by the pool, where she would often dream of representing her country at the blocks. Although swimming is no longer part of her athletic routine, the discipline and drive she developed as a swimmer still drive her forward.
3. While Muay Thai is her primary passion, Trevorrow is not opposed to exploring mixed martial arts (MMA). Given her strong striking skills, she sees MMA as a natural progression for her career. Several striking specialists, including former three-sport ONE World Champion Stamp Fairtex, have already made the successful transition from Muay Thai to MMA.
4. As a personal detail, Trevorrow shares her home with a furry companion. The bond she shares with her pet adds a unique dimension to her life outside of Muay Thai and inspires her off the ring.
