I have always played football, basketball, baseball and also raced dirt bikes since I was five. In high school I stopped everything and focused primarily on football.
In football I made conference MVP, made All State my junior year and broke the rushing record. Going into my senior year I was one of the top prospects in Tennessee. In the first five games of my senior year I rushed for over 1100, and then broke my fibula. It felt as if my life was over when I had surgery on the next Monday. I was out for 7 weeks and was not able to contribute my skills on the field and my team was knocked out of the playoffs.
I had always been interested in UFC (MMA) as I called it back then. I watched the UFC for several years and was in love with the sport. I invited a couple of friends over for a pay-per-view UFC fight, and someone brought over a “Heavy Weight” local fighter. I was expecting a “Brock Lester” looking dude to walk in my house I said to myself, “Let’s Go” and I started training in Mixed Martial Arts.
I started training at Tuco O Tapa (ToT) November 28th 2010. I fought my first armature fight 2 months later on January 28th 2011. In less than two years of training my armature records was 8-0 and won my professional debut on July 14th 2012. I am now fighting on live nationally televised television – THESE SEEMS SO SUREAL!
Now im 19-6 as a pro fighting all over the world.
I understand that fighting is only half of the responsibility of a professional athlete. As a professional athlete, I understand that I am a personal representative of each of my sponsors, and I am committed to the professional appearance and promotion of my sponsors and supports services, products, and brand.
Now Im on to playing video games like a loser in my basement.
