==Background==
Slack describes himself as “a martial arts fanatic from the U.K. who got involved in karate very young, then boxing, then most recently jiu-jitsu". Initially he started researching and writing for his own training improvement in order to compensate for his "shortcomings in his own physicality", and later, by motivation to showcase to the casual fan and the mainstream media how MMA is a highly skillful art form.〔(How much can the Internet teach you about fighting?

Slack stated in his interview to MMAjunkie that his pen name was a "a nod to the boxers of old".〔 He was referring to ''Jack Slack'' aka ''Norfolk Butcher'' the 1743 Norfolk boxing champion who defeated famed English boxing champion Jack Broughton in 1750 as a heavy underdog and remained undefeated as champion until 1760. Slack stated: "I don't particularly admire the man, his life was more than a little shady! But it (name ) certainly has a ring to it."〔http://www.bloodyelbow.com/2012/7/19/3169237/the-origins-of-the-name?_ga=1.108950210.1590942592.1429175754〕〔https://georgianera.wordpress.com/2014/07/29/jack-slack-the-norfolk-butcher/〕 In June 2013, posting on mixedmartialarts.com forum Slack explained his reason for his anonymity: "Only reason I haven't done any video podcasts or anything is because I like being able to train without the pressure of being that guy from the internet".〔(What does Jack Slack look like? - MMA Forum )〕
