TRAINING: Same as usual: conditioning, grappling sparring, MMA sparring and boxing. I alternate these sparring sessions, depending on the day. I do a lot of drills every day. Also I still teach at my gym Alive MMA frequently to interact with other fellow athletes. That's an important part of prep. I do "vision training" to develop and improve my eye movements. That's expensive :)

What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC? It's a stage where you can become the best of the best, and I would like to spread to the world the beauty and the artistry of the sport of MMA throughout the course of my road to win UFC featherweight gold.

Did you go to college and if so what degree did you earn? No

What was your job before you started fighting? I am still a Martial Arts instructor.
