Dave Herman

TRAINING: I usually train twice a day. Morning and evening.

Did you go to college and if so what degree did you earn? I graduated from Indiana University with a general studies degree.

What was your job before you started fighting? I didn’t have a job prior to fighting. I was a full time student.
