In fact, back in his youth, his father played in the Poltava football club. Khabib's first MMA appearance was on MMA Tournament "Champions League" in Poltava back in 2008 against Vusal Bayramov where of course Khabib won. After Poltava, Khabib performed for a short time in Russia. And on April 17, 2010, it was in Kyiv that he first became the world champion in combat sambo undoubtedly making his father remarkably proud & for the first-timers just watching this video for the first time. There was also his childhood hobby where he would wrestle bears.

YOUR true calling might be a completely different path than you originally thought...That was the case for @frankieedgar.Frankie was a great wrestler in high school and went on to wrestle in college, qualifying for nationals all four years.However, there were some goals that he wasn't able to fulfill inside of his wrestling career… so rather than hang it up, he made the commitment to move into MMA early on with only a few weeks of training!Edgar became the UFC Lightweight Champion at UFC 112 when he beat BJ Penn by unanimous decision. To this day, no fighter has spent more time in the Octagon than Frankie, with just under 6.5 hours!Frankie has made such an incredible impact on the UFC but also in his local community. Thank YOU Frankie for taking the time to tell YOUR story and for setting such an incredible example of what it looks like to be a strong competitor and a father.************************************************************************Get my FREE Daily Routine Builder *** YOUR Prizefighter Day

How being ‘ice cool’ before a fight helps to focus the mind How a determined mindset in the ring transfers to business and other aspects of life. The need to look for creative ways to achieve How to become proficient enough to compete at the top level. Select core skill elements to focus on and become a master of these. Once the foundations are in place, build on these Why skill evolution and continual learning is vital to success How adversity drives success. Turning a defeat into a driver for achievement in the future How much of today’s fighting is about strategy and how much is raw skill execution How important is mindset? What role does mental attitude play in success? How being able to read fighters and know when the right time is to throw that killer punch  Why it is important to train across multiple disciplines and pick out what works for you? Why John Hackleman, long term coach and friend, played no part in the final fight Hard core fans enjoy great fighters compete but showboats like Connor McGregor help to attract new ‘casual fans’, growing the sport and turning a fight more into a party or an event Is it more important to fight to win or fight to entertain the fans? Was a highly competitive mindset something you were born with?  People who are really good at what they do work hard at what they do. Success has been the result of hard work, driven by a love of the sport The strong work ethic that has driven success in sport translates into other areas of life and business but it’s not so easy Failure only happens when you give up. If you want to think like a winner, be a winner, keep moving. Pick a direction and keep going  If you make a mistake you need to get over it quickly, get back to work.  Mental toughness is an everyday thing. It can’t be turned on and off. You have to focus on it. If you don’t, it can slip. You’ve got to believe in yourself. Dealing with retirement was hard. The whole purpose in life disappeared. It’s been really important to find new things to focus on UFC has changed. There is a lot more hype, more theatrical around the fights now. The main event should remain in the ring The story behind the mohawk How did a UFC Hall of Famer find the ‘Dancing with The  Stars’ experience   Join Matthew Januszek in conversation with Chuck Liddell

But what happens when we as fathers fail? Today we have Frankie Edgar on the show for a return visit. He was the UFC Lightweight Champion of UFC 112 and is a husband and a dad. Frankie risks crushing failure every time he steps into the ring. Naturally, it's no fun losing a fight, but he knows that his kids are watching. Listen to how Frankie sets a champion's example of pulling the positive from failure and how he draws the line between family and fighting.

Another great crowd and fun night on the Podcast as we discussed the NFL Super Bowl matchup and Tony's perfect Championship Sunday picks as the show heads to San Francisco for 9 days starting on Saturday for live podcasts, radio row coverage and our big SB party at the GlassHouse in San Jose. Miss Robin was upset with the slow internet while Tony bragged about his 8 pound weight loss in one week and compared himself to Oprah's boasts even though Tony didn't eat any bread like Oprah. We also wondering why at least 6 fans of NFL teams decided to get tattoos proclaiming their teams as SB champs, including an Arizona Cardinals and Patriots fan who did it days before the title games. We had a special guest in the Comedy Sports theatre in Philly as top-ranked UFC lightweight Champ Eddie Alvarez came on fresh off his decision over former champ Anthony Pettis at UFC Fight-Nite 81 in Boston. Great stories of his rise as a young Philly kid who wanted to be an MMA fighter since his high school wrestling days and his rise thru Bellator to the top contender in the UFC lightweight division. We also toasted Eddies victory with a shot of Marz Vodka, which will be one of the sponsors of our SB party in San Jose. We wrapped up the first hour with Eddie playing our favorite game - F-Marry-Kill.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/tony-bruno-show/donations
