Matt Ewin one of the top British middle weights in early 2000 also Mark Weir's 2nd personal MMA training partner, he now trains and coaches the next rising stars by passing on his experience.

Kris Hughes was Mark Weir's first training partner, small and weighing about 70kg he pushed Mark in his early successful MMA career. He was also known for fighting in open weight, beating most opponents such as Danny Baten, and Richard Stopgate.

Colin Walsh is Mark's best friend, coach and training partner, who whilst working the doors, engineering and training together, helped to develop the Range fighting programme in 1990. After a severe back operation in 2006 he is still one of Mark's main training partners and coach, as seen frequently in his corner.

James Millard has yet to reach black belt in Range Fighting like all his peers, but is fast becoming a major training aid and coach to Mark and all the guys in the gym. He can always be seen pushing rising star Ch'e Mills on the pads whilst heavy sparring with Jake Blyth and many others upcoming names.
