The fact is most of my life is taken up with working out and training. I’m more focused on mastering new fighting techniques than reading about the latest news in the industry. Sometimes my biggest fight is for a life outside of mma. Long ago I realized I was burning up too much mental energy getting angry at unfair and poorly-informed opinions from some keyboard warriors. 

My tool for keeping in the loop is my wife, Beth. She patrols every website and knows every new detail. She screens the endless data and keeps me informed.
