405 - Three Ways that Training for MMA Fights Has Changed Since the Early UFC
From The Strenuous Life Podcast
Short episode today with my friend Denis Kang sharing three ways that fighters have improved their training methods to get ready for MMA fights.
Denis fought for the first time in 1998 (in an event without gloves) and went on to fight a total of 55 times in events like the UFC, PRIDE, DREAM, Impact FC, M-1 Global, K-1 HERO'S, ROAD FC, and Pancrase.
Denis currently teaches MMA at Pinnacle Martial Arts in Richmond, BC.
