Q&A

What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC? Everything. I started training with the dream of being the best middleweight and being the middleweight champ. This opportunity is what I’ve been working towards since I started training and I can’t wait. 
What was your job before you started fighting? None - I’ve been working at the gym for the last six years or so. 
Specific accomplishments in pro competition? Becoming CFFC middleweight champ. I’ve been to so many of their events and fighting for the belt there was a dream come true. They are the top regional organization on the east coast, and being the champ there is a great accomplishment.
