ERYK ANDERS Before UFC Career DEEPDIVE
UFC middleweight Eryk Anders stopped by the #LOP to talk about his career. Anders won a College Football National Championship with the Alabama Crimson Tide in his college years and he played a season in the NFL before transitioning over to the one on one sport of MMA.
Anders paid his dues in the fight game, fighting more than twenty amateur bouts for little to no pay a he learned how to fight on the job. Thankfully, Alabama and the southern United States are just the place to fight a lot for very little. Anders could not be held back and he is in the big show now - here at the #LOP he tells us how he got there -
