My man, Carlos Connet in the house at On It.

Yes, sir.

I try to make that rhyme or flow together somewhat, just for a super sweet intro.

Yeah, I'm here, bro, thanks for having me.

I'm excited.

And we were just talking about, you know, meeting way back in the day early on,

right when I first got in the UFC out in Arizona.

You trained in a number of different places.

Yeah, man.

I had been at the same gym in Albuquerque for a long time

and I think I was about 24 I had to get the fuck out and so I went out to Arizona and

trained with you guys at Arizona combat a good time really saw what high-level elite

athletes trained like you know I was around you know fighters but it was just it is a

different level of athlete when I went to Arizona and I really got a

taste for what it was to you know be a be a professional athlete and train that way.

Yeah I think as the sport started, you know, obviously when it

first started you had this guy knows this versus that guy knows that.

And then obviously when people started to bridge the gap on the

martial arts point, you still had guys that were all technique

and all focused on martial arts but weren't necessarily focusing on the athletics.

And then now, more and more, that's the fucking standard fucking standard like you got to have world-class

cardio you got to be explosive you got to have all your ducks in a row just like an NFL
