TJ DILLASHAW
Gentlemen, I can't even begin to describe how excited I am to introduce my guest today, UFC Bantamweight Champion, TJ Dillashaw.
I reached out to TJ a couple weeks ago and received a last-minute message from him while I was on a hunt that he had one day to have a conversation before he left for fight week leading up to his championship fight for the UFC Flyweight Belt this weekend.
I've been following TJ for years and he's one of my favorite fighters because of the passion and level of discipline he possesses. Which, is likely why he's been so successful as a fighter. In fact, he's arguably one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the UFC.

| 0:00.0 | If you follow the UFC at all, you know exactly who my guest is today. His name is TJ Dillesha. |
| 0:05.6 | And he is the current UFC Bantamweight Champion and is fighting this weekend for the UFC |
| 0:11.2 | Flyweight Championship. Today we talk about what it means to fight for living where loyalties should |
| 0:16.8 | lie, how to optimize all factors of your health and how to develop the fighter's mindset. |
| 0:23.1 | You're a man of action. You live life to the fullest. You embrace your fears. You |
| 0:27.3 | can boldly charge your own path when life knocks you down. You get back up one more time, |
| 0:32.4 | every time. You are not easily deterred or defeated. Rugged, resilient, strong. This is your |
| 0:39.0 | life. This is who you are. This is who you will become. At the end of the day and after |
| 0:44.3 | all is said and done, you can call yourself a man. |
| 0:48.9 | Gentlemen, what is going on today? My name is Ryan Mickler and I am the host and the founder of |
| 0:52.8 | this podcast, The Order of Man and frankly the movement. And it is a movement, guys. We are |
| 0:57.3 | expanding the entire planet. We continue to see growth in the podcast. We continue to see growth |
| 1:02.9 | on our social media accounts and website and all the places that we are and obviously that |
| 1:07.8 | couldn't be done without you. I'm glad that this movement is growing and we are doing what we're |
| 1:12.8 | doing. It's much needed. The APA American Psychology Association just came out with a quasi study. |
| 1:19.7 | I say quasi. I should say pseudo study because it's not really backed in science. And what it had |
| 1:25.9 | said is that frankly traditional masculinity is a problem. It is what's wrong with the world today. |
| 1:31.9 | And obviously we know that's not the case. It's my job to debunk some of that and to talk about |
| 1:37.5 | what really is the problem, which is a lack of masculinity. And to that end, my goal is to bring |
| 1:43.2 | these conversations to you. Have conversations with powerful, powerful men, guys like Chris Hogan, |
| 1:48.4 | Andy Fricilla, Grant Cardone, Tim Kennedy, Jocco Willink. The list goes on and on including my |
| 1:53.5 | guest today. The one and only TJ Dillesha, which I'm really excited. Needless to say to introduce |
