I’m 8 weeks out!!! Here’s some recent clips of rounds with @justin_gaethje he hits like a truck!!!! UFC 300 is gonna be a big night for him and the team @elevationfightteamco . #BuildingTheBase
Climbed one of the 4 great traverses known as the crestone traverse consisting of crestone peak and crestone needle with my friends Evan and Logan
I’ve never climbed a class 5 route before and seeing the 2000 foot drops on the head wall was amongst the most terrified I’ve ever been. 36/58 #14ers #MMAcardio #training #colorado @colorado14ers
Running at 13,500ft altitude! Trying to get stronger and in better shape each day! These mountains are incredible cardio!
Got Little Horn Peak (13,148ft), Fluted Peak (13,576), Horn Peak (13,454). 12 miles, 5,400 round trip. Saw @willerickson6529 name, he’s a bigger machine that any of us. @tompags came along and crushed it! #BuildingTheBase
My fight August 11th is another step on the journey to inspire those to chase their dreams no matter what you face in life. On July 14th, 2010, I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, it crushed me. It changed my life and for a long time it kept me down mentally. But eventually I found that, I don’t want this disease to “win” over me and that I wanted to be stronger than it. So I kept chasing my dreams through the doubts and the adversity I’ve faced. No matter what, my fight August 11th is proof that type 1 diabetes doesn’t have to stop you. That no matter how many times life knocks me down, I can get back up and keep fighting. #WeFight #AmericanDiabetesAssociation #Type1Diabetes
6 years ago today! I’ve come a long way to get where I’m at now, but I’ve got much further to go. Thankful for many of the people along my journey, especially @coach_alex_striking . All these years of hard work come down to August 11th on @dwcs
I’ll be fighting on August 11th for Dana Whites Contender Series @dwcs
Time to show the world the work I’ve put in, and how resilient I can be. My story is going to inspire the world to chase their dreams, no matter what life throws at us. I can promise you one thing, I will bring violence Tuesday, August 11th and start my run in the @ufc
Shoutout to my manager @showtimepettis making this happen. Appreciate @mickmaynard2 and @ufc for the opportunity! Let’s get to work!
Today is #NationalTellAStoryDay and I’m teaming up with the @amdiabetesassn to tell a story of how my body went into Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA) a life threatening condition where the body produces dangerous levels ketones from a lack of insulin.
This story changed my life and prompted me to get a CGM monitor to better track my numbers when doing extreme events like climbing mountains or professional MMA. I had never been in DKA before and this situation allowed me to learn to recognize the signs before things get severe! For more information visit: https://bit.ly/3JjlK9D
Out here chasing my dreams and testing myself! No matter how far I go, my story is to inspire those to keep pushing and never quit no matter how far the odds are stacked against you. This next fight is a culmination of my life’s work stacked into 1 night.
If you dare to dream big, you must become someone strong enough to survive what it takes to make it a reality.
Fight announcement coming soon
Got a name and a date for my next fight, I’ll have an official announcement in the coming weeks! Proud to have @shinergylife on my team for this training camp! Time to get to work! #11-0
