Summary
Phil Davis is the former Bellator Light Heavyweight Champion and is currently fighting out of San Diego. In this episode we talk about Phil's background in wrestling, where he won an NCAA title for Penn State, as well as his transition to MMA. My favorite part of this episode is when Phil talks about the 10k rule and how he applied it to his MMA training.
Really enjoyed this one. Hope you do as well.
