Interviewed by Michelle of MMA Discussions

the 19th! installment of 13 Q’s with an MMA FAN is with DAN

1) I know who you are cuz we are related but tell everyone who you are as a person?

Dan Martinez, one of the coolest persons you will ever meet
2) What got you into MMA?

UFC ..1 back in 1993. We had a cable descrambler and I was always able to watch the PPV’s for “free”

3) Who is your fav fighter?

Wow, I have a few that I like. Anderson Silva, Mauricio “Shogun” Rua, Mirko CroCop, George St. Pierre, Mike Swick, Takanori Gomi. Lot’s from Pride…I think the UFC is kinda thin right now but they are coming back up with thier fighters. The LW division is shaping up to be a good division. The middle weight division doesn’t have the talent to compete against Anderson Silva at this time. The WW division is iffy too….

4) What is your fav move in the ring that makes you jump outta your seat like Micheal Jackson just walked in the room …giggle..?

I really get excited when I see an Armbar or Triangle Choke about to get applied (I can see them coming a mile away), but a good Thai Clinch (like the one that Silva caught Franklin with in the last UFC) are great to watch too…

5) What are your thoughts on the blow up of MMA in the US today?

I think it’s great but needs to be done with caution to not oversaturate TV with MMA for the love of add revenue and such…overall I think it Fantastic

6) I know but tell us what is your Fav Music?

I have many fav’s. Deep House is my number one but I also love good R&B, Hip Hop, Blues and different metal…

7) With all that good cookin we got growin up tell us what your fav food dish is?

I love tomales and Pasteles!!!!!
(mine too) giggle..
Have you or would you ever train MMA?

I’ve done some Kickboxing classes and some BJJ. Would love to make a larger portion of my time for training…competing or not…

9) Have you ever been to an MMA live Event?

YES!!! So Fuckin Awesome!!!

10) Who do you think deserves a shot at a title?

He’s getting one…George St. Pierre and he’s gonna kick Hughes’ ass!!! Also CroCop, but he is also getting a shot against Fedor soon. I think Brandon Vera would be good against Silvia for the UFC HW title

11) One place youd rather be right now is and why?

Home smoking bowls or in the gym training…

12) What do you watch more of UFC, PRIDE, IFL, WFA, KOTC and more but what do you watch the most of?

PRIDE and UFC Junkie!!!!!! The others are great to watch too but just don’t have a strong enough presence yet. Rumble on the Rock is a good too!!!

13) Tell us when your next RAVE is?

I actually haven’t thrown a rave since 99. The laws in California make it pretty much impossible to do so, so probably not anytime soon…lol

Thanks for takin the time fill this out…
If there is anything else youd like to say have at it….

GSP is gonna Beat Hughes!!!!! hahaha
