flyweight

J.J. Aldrich is an American mixed martial artist who competes in the UFC’s Flyweight division.
A one time contestant on Season 23 of the Ultimate Fighter, she has an impressive history of past fights and an even more compelling personal backstory.

She is fighting next on UFC Fight Night, August 26, 2023 in Singapore- and I'm excited that we got to connect for this episode today.

In this episode we talk about the fights that happened on November 19th. Then we have some big news to cover and a lot of it. No fights this upcoming week so no fight predictions.

One fateful night at an MMA event her freshman year of college changed everything…

A one time cheerleader and gymnast, now fighting at a high level on season 30 of ESPN+'s The Ultimate Fighter:
Kaytlin "Katniss" Neil, a member of Team Nunes, joins me on the show today- and we talk about her journey, her utilization of social media, and she does her best to keep from spilling any beans.. ;-)

He was working in a warehouse and started fighting as a hobby. His work ethic and discipline made him one of the greatest fighters of all time. Demetrious Johnson a.k.a. Mighty, is the first flyweight champion in UFC history. In 2017, he won ESPY award for Best Fighter. He has 11 successful title defenses, the most in UFC history.

It all started with his mom. She told him that he could either play sports and she’d cover his expenses or work and he’d be responsible for his own costs. He chose to play sports.  He was a multi-sport athlete in high school.

Although he feels that college is a useful tool, he feels that it was a waste of time for him. Listen in as he shares his experience with Jonaed.

One of my favorite things about interviewing fighters, particularly MMA fighters, is breaking the fourth wall of bygone stereotypes people have about the mindset of mixed martial arts. When you add a layer of depth unique to somebody like my next guest, it makes breaking down those walls simultaneously more complex and more rewarding. Miranda is guest that I've wanted to interview for a while, and somebody that several of my listeners have asked for. This episode delivers. I feel honored to now call her a friend, and I am not only excited to see what her career in the UFC will bring- but also in life itself. The fact that her name is "Maverick" is way more than just a convienent coincidence.
