In this episode, I talk to Alexander Volkanovski. Alex is the
current UFC featherweight champion. We discuss what it was like as
an amateur athlete rising through the ranks of Australia to become
the UFC champion and how he was able to get valuable training with
partners of all different abilities. Also, the mentality he adopted
to help drive and motivate him to the top by building resilience
and staying adaptable. And what it is like spending training time
at City Kickboxing as he gives insight into some training drills
and a few fights stories along the way, like the time in Guam where
he had to solve the problem of a fighter who was greased up before
the bout while in the middle of a fight.
