Timeline
Matt Hume (born July 14, 1966) is an American former professional mixed martial artist, trainer, and businessman.
He is the co-founder and head trainer at AMC Pankration in Kirkland, WA.
Hume and his AMC team have trained several champions and world-class fighters including Josh Barnett, Demetrious Johnson, Bibiano Fernandes, Tim Boetsch, Jeff Monson, Bob Sapp, Chris Leben, Hayato Sakurai, Akira Shoji, Matt Brown, Rich Franklin, and Caros Fodor.
While attending CWU in 1988, Hume started a pankration club, inviting all wrestlers, boxers, and other martial artists to train.
He originally learned about pankration as a child while attending wrestling camps hosted by Athletes in Action.
This encouraged him to train and compete in wrestling, boxing, kickboxing, Thai boxing, and karate.
After graduating, Hume worked in finance while training with Haru Shimanishi and Maurice Smith.
Shimanishi had already established AMC (American Martial Arts Centre) Kickboxing, and partnered with Hume to co-found AMC Pankration.
His relationship with Smith brought interest from Japanese reporters and Pancrase, who recruited Hume and many other AMC fighters.
Hume's competitive MMA career started in the shootfighting organization Pancrase, debuting at Pancrash 3!
against Katsuomi Inagaki, losing by points.
He won his second fight against veteran and future UFC fighter Scott Bessac via rear naked choke, but lost his next 3 fights against Ken Shamrock, Manabu Yamada, and Jason DeLucia.
Hume rebounded by submitting Scott Sollivan with an armbar in under a minute, but lost against Minoru Suzuki by points in his final Pancrase fight.
He later cited Shamrock, Suzuki, and Masakatsu Funaki as influences on his career.
After Pancrase, Hume fought in Extreme Fighting, defeating Shooto champion Erik Paulson and former UFC Welterweight Champion Pat Miletich.
His last fight was at Absolute FC, where he submitted Shawn Peters in under two minutes.
Since retiring from active competition, Hume has remained active as the head coach at AMC, working with a range of students from world champions to hobbyist adults and children.
In 1993, Hume founded United Full Contact Federation in order to sanction amateur pankration events.
UFCF was instrumental in legalizing MMA in Washington state.
After conflicts with the state's boxing commission, the boxing commission was dissolved and UFCF worked with the Department of Licensing to sanction, codify, and legislate the sport.
UFCF would also hold professional events from 1995 to 2007, several of them at the AMC gym.
Hume was the rule director and official trainer to both PRIDE Fighting Championships and Dream.
Hume made his professional debut in submission wrestling on October 11, 1997 at The Contenders, an event that pitted submission grapplers against amateur wrestlers.
He faced Olympic wrestling gold medalist Kenny Monday, winning via submission in under a minute.
On March 20, 1998, Hume competed at the inaugural ADCC Submission Fighting World Championships.
He defeated Micah Pittman and Luis Brito but withdrew due to injury before facing John Lewis.
Hume was initially appointed as the head official by Singapore-based promotion ONE Championship when it was founded in 2011.
The following year he accepted a new role as Vice President of Operations.
Hume has been the Senior Vice President of Competition for Singapore-based combat sports promotion ONE Championship since 2012.
Hume grew up in Kirkland, Washington.
His father was a Seattle police officer and his mother was a housewife and later a nurse.
His father had trained under Bruce Lee and began Matt's judo and boxing training at age four.
Hume began folkstyle wrestling in elementary school and started coaching after graduating from Lake Washington High School.
