But this former Golden Gloves Champ wants to bring his success to MMA. "I wanna be the man that can say is their favorite fighter. Titles, money, and fame comes and go, but leaving a legacy means more to me than all of that". Those are very heartfelt words, and it shows in his fighting. He recently fought in his first MMA. He won in the Second Round via TKO. That fight has been highly regarded as One of the best fights in QFC History. Now even though he's been successful so far, he wants more.
