Fighter profile of Sam Crow by Bronco Fevre

This is a little set down i had with sam crow about himself his fight club and the future. 

tell us sam about yourself and how you got interested in mma.  I've been fighting for a while now, I got into the sport around 10 years ago flipping through channels and stumbled on some fight replays and I fell in love. I instantly knew I wanted to be a fighter. I have always been athletic, playing football and a little baseball in highschool I've always had that competitive side in me where I just wanna be the best at anything I do and I just thought why not be the best fighter in the world? So that's what i set out to do.  

What are your goals in the sport and where do you see yourself in 5 years Sam ?  Become the LAFC World champ of course, I want to run the fighting world. I look to have it all. I want to be the greatest, and nothing will stop me at achieving that goal.

What are your feelings on the up and coming fight org. LAFC who you recently signed with ?
