Jordan Johnson joins me on this episode of Santino's World of MMA. Jordan was an Illinois state champion and University of Iowa wrestler under Tom and Terry Brands before he transitioned to MMA, where he went 4-0 in the UFC before signing with the PFL, where he was the runner up in the $1 million light heavyweight tournament. Jordan and I talk about his MMA career, which brought him to Arizona from Iowa to train at the MMA Lab. We talk about how he slept in a pantry, a travel trailer, a garage, and then trained with Vitor Belfort and Stipe Miocic. In addition to fighting, we talk about social media, cooking--he's the best average cook there is--dressing like he's a middle-aged father in the 1990's and more. Jordan's hilarious, but also a very hard worker. As a coach, I've rarely seen the dedication he brings to the room, or the intensity. Have a listen. Why not?

Episode 21 of Early Stoppage features undefeated LFA lightweight Keoni Diggs. Keoni trains out of the MMA Lab with many current and past champions that help him physically and mentally elevate his game. This was a unique episode because we touch on some future fights within boxing and mma and break them down. Keoni gives great insight on a past fight he had with Nick Chasteen and what lead to the kneebar. Currently he is a free agent but that won’t last long as many organizations will be looking to lock him in. He does intend on fighting before years end and is confident he will. Having a kill or be killed mentality has lead to all finishes for him so expect much of the same when he enters the cage again. This was one of my favorite interviews. I hope you guys enjoy this episode.

After an upbringing and young adulthood in rural Alaska that could generously be described as "some Story of Job shit", Lauren Murphy found herself hopelessly addicted to drugs and near the end of her rope. She had taken just about as many punches from Life as she could take. So she decided to punch back. Now Lauren is a happily married mom and professional MMA fighter in the UFC with a record of 9 wins and 3 losses, and, far more importantly, she's clean and has been for years. If her story doesn't move you, then you are probably dead. And not just regular old "oh I'm dead inside" type dead, but literally dead. We met Lauren at The MMA Lab in Phoenix where she taught us how to kick and punch (badly, but that's not her fault) and then we sat down at the Phoenix House of Comedy to talk about fighting. Fighting addiction, fighting your demons, fighting for your life, etc. (We talk about actual fighting too.) Before the interview, you'll hear a conversation the three of us had on Saturday at the Golden Spike Comedy Festival in Salt Lake City. Being in the heart of Mormon World had religion on our mind, so be ready for some blasphemy in this un. Enjoy!
