6-8 weeks before a fight i eat very clean no junk food at all , and lots of protein with

in 6 seconds….

12) Any street fighting or life and death stories you would like to share?
Umm, when i was in high school i use to get pressured to fight a lot and i got into a street
fight and ended up getting stabbed in my back and right arm and still won the fight, that
got me to think i should do it in the ring not the street….

13) Thanks Keith! Feel free to say anything else you’d like and don’t forget your sponsors…
I think MMA is the biggest and most exciting sport around , and it will only get bigger….. and with my heart and love for the sport i think in a couple years i will be a key player in MMA… and thanks to all my sponsors and supporters!
