Biography and career

Mes grew up in Amsterdam (Amsterdam Noord). As a kid, he excelled in field hockey, as a goalie. As he felt field hockey was not for him, he tried soccer for a short while, before he got involved in kickboxing. At the age of fifteen, he started training with coach Mike Passenier at Mike's Gym. [2]
