Fighter Biography

When and why did you start training for an MMA career?

After wrestling, there was nothing else to do. Plus, I get to fight, they pay me, and I don’t go to jail.

Who are you currently training with and who is helping you prepare for this fight?

I train at ABQ Kickboxing and West Mesa with my uncle Lenny Lovato. My stand up coach is Ray Yee.

Describe a typical training day when you are preparing for an upcoming contest?

Eat and sleep and train. That is all my life consists of before my fights.

How have you prepared for your opponent and his style of fighting?

Train hard, eat right, and be mentally ready.

What is your favorite technique?

Ground and pound

What do you hope to accomplish this year in your MMA career (i.e., where do you see yourself in one year)?

Of course, win this fight. I do not like to look ahead, but hopefully by the end of the year, I would like to be in the WEC.
