TRAINING: I'm starting the day with breakfast, and at 10 AM I have my first training session. Mostly we're working on technique in BJJ, standup or wrestling with task-oriented light sparring. After a meal, there is a time to regenerate with a massage or, recently, cryotherapy. The second training session is around 8 PM so I have time for another meal before. Mostly we have evening sparring sessions, as we have a strong team of big guys. Then I am back home and after my last meal I fall asleep.



When and why did you start training for fighting? It started back in 2006 when my friend took me to a training session. I liked it so much that after a few weeks I wanted to compete.

What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC? It's a dream come true, and an example that hard work always pays off.
