Have you always been into martial arts, or were you interested in othersports too?

I enjoy playing other sports but MMA has always been my passion, I have trained hard and lived for this sport my whole life.
How old were you when you first stepped in the ring?

I first stepped in the ring about two months after my 18th birthday and I went pro that same year.
Which is the victory in your career that you treasure the most?

I treasure every victory and every time I win that’s the one I treasure the most.
Many people think that martial arts are not a sport at all, but violence. What is your message to those people?

There is definitely violence in this sport but it is much more then that, the training that fighters put in the time we spend away from our family the work we put in everyday makes this one of the most legit sports out there. It’s not two people who just decided to fight going at it that day, it takes months and months of preparation and discipline to make it to the fight.
