Summary

Unfiltered fans: We're excited about a new show we're debuting right here on our feed! New episodes will drop for the next two weeks, leading up to the Fight Night on Dec. 19. In our first episode, UFC Hall of Famer Forrest Griffin gives an inside look at what really goes into a UFC fight camp. In the first of 3 shows, Forrest checks in with rising welterweight stars Geoff Neal, Belal Muhammad, and Khaos Williams as they prepare for their fights in three weeks. How did Geoff Neal's recent health scare affect his training for the biggest fight of his career? What's the secret behind Khaos Williams' lightning-fast knock outs in the UFC? And did Belal Muhammad's mother screw-up his training with a big meal on Thanksgiving? What does camp look like in the COVID era? Plus, a few stories from Forrest about his own camps, and a few pieces of candid advice he passes on to each fighter.

0:53.2	a UFC training camp. I feel like that's where the success comes from. You know what I'm saying?
0:57.7	A thousand hours that nobody see. Every day is a potential day for progress.
1:02.8	I feel like you know I'm saying some people they just do this. I can sit there and go through
