Danny MartinezTRAINING: Wake up, eat breakfast: eggs, ground turkey, spinach. Take my two daughters to school and head to the gym at 9:30 a.m. for a session, which is usually pads or strength and conditioning training with George Castro.
When and why did you start training for fighting? I started in 2006 while wrestling for Pima Community College. What ranks and titles have you held? Coalition of Combat Champion, Rage in the Cage Champion, Explode Champion, King of Champions Champion. Do you have any heroes? My Dad and Brother and Dominick Cruz What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC? It means the world to me. I can give hope to the kids in my anti-bullying campaign, “The Gremlins Kids,” and show them that if you work hard, anything can happen. I can provide for my baby girl and give her the best life possible.
