Jeff Monson is an accomplished heavyweight who has braved it out in numerous promotions including the UFC. The tough looking grappler has been winning numerous heavyweight championships since he made his debut in 1997.

Prior to throwing his weight around (quite literally) inside the octagon, Monson worked as a mental health professional, being a child and family counsellor as well as donning a crisis evaluation role.

“The Snowman” has a bachelor’s degree in psychology from the University of Illinois which he followed up with a master’s accreditation (in stark contrast to his “No Masters” tattoo!) from the University of Minnesota Duluth.
