A professional competitor since 2010, he has competed for Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), BAMMA and Cage Warriors.

Background
Marshman started training MMA when he was 15 when his dad introduced him to his friend who is a mixed martial arts (MMA) coach, Richard Shore. After the first MMA training session, Marshman was instantly hooked and spent much of his time in the gym there after. He claimed that learning MMA taught him to stay out of troubles in his teenage life.
Marshman joined the army at the age of 17. He served as a Lance Corporal with The 3rd Battalion, The Parachute Regiment, for 10 years, where he was deployed to Afghanistan. He serves as a Paratrooper while fighting MMA professionally. He believed his military service helped him to develop the physical and mental toughness and self-discipline which would help him in his MMA career.
