Hey there, listeners! Ever wondered how a friendship could evolve through shared sparring sessions and years of training together? Step into the world of combat sports with myself and my long-time companion, Antoine Curtis. We relive the excitement of our team's recent win, delve into the controversy around my own fight, and decode the importance of muscle memory in heat-of-the-moment decisions.

We cap off this segment by discussing the critical issue of brain safety in combat sports and the etiquette of gym culture.
Wrapping up, we get down and gritty with hard-earned lessons from grappling and sparring in the gym.
