What does it take to be an MMA fighter - 11 factors

What does it take to be an MMA fighter?
A lot of young guys dream about becoming an MMA fighters and UFC champions. While it is good to strive towards greatness, the truth is that a very small percentage of people will ever make it to the top of any endeavor, and especially MMA. I discussed that in this video.
If you are thinking of becoming an MMA fighter, this video will help you decide if that is the right choice for you. Here are 11 factors to take into account:

1. Courage (madness)
Being brave is a must and I don't mean not being afraid. Courage is not the absence of fear. It is action in spite of fear. Some people will also say that you need to be crazy a little bit to walk into the octagon where you will be punched, kicked and have your limbs stretched. That is correct and it takes a special person to do that.
2. Skill
MMA is a very skill-intensive sport and you need to cultivate a wide variety of techniques in order to be successful. You will, of course, specialize in some areas, but unlike other combat sports where you have to learn less, in MMA you need to know a lot of moves in order to be prepared for what awaits in the octagon.
3. Discipline & sacrifice
MMA is not like a sprint but more like long distance running. That means that you need to be in it for the long run and the results will not come overnight but after years of diligent practice.
That takes discipline and self-sacrifice.
While your friends are out drinking and partying, you have to go to bed early so you would be ready for tomorrow's training. While they are eating junk you should eat healthy. An ex UFC fighter Sean Sherk once said that he doesn't eat for taste but for performance. That's exactly the mindset you need to have.
While there are fighters that party occasionally or more than occasionally, drink or even do drugs, and get away with it, you are much better off without that crap. Diets of MMA fighters are not so strict as the diets of bodybuilders, but they still have to watch what they eat and that will make a huge difference.
All of this takes discipline and self-sacrifice.
4. Brutal weight cuts
And since we're mentioning discipline, you are definitely going to need it for weight cuts that sometimes get brutal in MMA. Most fighters say that it is the hardest part of MMA, and for a good reason. Weight cutting has been a problem for quite some time, and there are steps taken to come up with a solution, but for the time being it is still going to be extremely hard for fighters that choose to cut a lot of weight.
5. Injuries
Injuries, both minor and major, are a part of every fighter's career. It is very difficult being on the sidelines without the ability to compete or train. Or training with injuries. Still, it is what every fighter goes through and it's a part of this job. Are you willing to spend months or even years like me doing rehab? Can you endure surgeries, cuts, bone fractures, herniated discs, ligament tears and more? Professional MMA is very hard on the body and you need to be prepared for that if you're going to make this your calling.
6. Self-reflection and honesty
MMA exposes one to his own inadequacies quite quickly. In sparring, you get that feedback instantly. So in order to improve, you need to be very honest with yourself and be able to see your own flaws. This doesn't just apply to technical and physical flaws, but also to mental ones. This requires self-reflection which is not easy.

Everything is possible, but I think what you aim for is difficult. There are UFC fighters that have regular jobs, like Stipe Miocic being a fire fighter, so I guess it's doable. Problem with music is the late night shows when you should be sleeping and recovering from training, although that is on hold because of Corona. You can try it for some time and see how it works out for you. If it doesn't, you will have to choose.

[@mature942]

Imma do mma next month or march. I’m 29 years old though and it’s a little discouraging knowing how old I am and most greater fighters are younger than me. I always wanted to learn martial arts as a kid and I worked out very hard for about 4 to 5 years until I got with my ex and I started to not workout anymore and I didn’t have the money at the time to pay for classes. I love fighting in anything whether it’s movies, video games, or books. Though I mostly was into fantasy martial arts and kung fu movies I grew up on because of my dad. But I never really touched up mma. But now I’m really into it and hardly know anything about it when it comes to the ground game and submissions. I only been in two fights in my school years. I won one and I lost one. I been knocked out before because the person I fought wrapped a beaded jump rope around their hand and sucker punched the hell out of me and my ears were ringing while I saw the person come up to me to hit me again. That was six grade though and the person I fought was 18 and a predator. I stood up for my self and fought them. But yeah I always had the desire to do martial arts it just died after I got with my ex but now I’m with the women of my dreams and I’m much happier now and have that desire to finally do it. Imma work really hard as I can to try and make it into being a professional mma fighter.

[@MMACoach79]

Perhaps it would be best to find a therapist and determine if there is something non-training related that's holding you back. If not, know that all of us doubted ourselves sometimes and that it's normal. Mental toughness takes time, training and considerable effort. If you can manage that, you will gain self-confidence.

Please reply I need your answer to this thank you

[@MMACoach79]

I don't your uncle so I cannot tell if he can be of help, but if he fought in the UFC he probably can. As Master Yoda says: "Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.” :) There is a lot of truth to this saying and fighting with anger is no good. It can lead to victory, but a more advanced opponent can use it against you. When you're angry you're not fighting to the best of your abilities, you're not reacting properly and your sole purpose is to destroy your opponent instead of solving the puzzle (the opponent) by following the tactics you have set out for yourself. So resist the dark side. ;)

Tough question. I could say that competitive experience is important for a coach, but that would not be completely true as there are awesome coaches with zero MMA experience as fighters. Greg Jackson is just one of them. Perhaps more important than competitive experience is a true love and a keen interest in the sport of MMA. It is also imperative to be good with people.

[@Karim-jp5ko]

Probably it is because most retire at late 30s...but anything is possible. Keep pushing

[@nukmanhassan6114]

What if I want to compete in multiple events like a local boxing match, a local mma match, a local muay thai match..

[@MMACoach79]

Have you started training and sparring? Have you competed at all?

[@GhostRider-hy9zt]

It’s possible. Check out Ramsey Dewey’s career. He’s competed in Muay Thai, MMA, Sanda, Jiu Jitsu, Taekwondo, American Kickboxing.

I will become the middle weight Champion. I Am The Best. I Am A Master of Combat. I Am Coming For My Belts in all Competitions I do. Boxing, MMA, Muay Thai, Judo, BBJ, Kick Boxing, Karate, and other arts. I Am God's Assassin. I Am Coming for What is Mine. Went homeless by choice for 2020 for my entrepreneurship goals and fitness goals and Championship goals. Doing a vlog journal on it also. Last note for the video yes I agree have all them but 1 finding a team doing that when I make it to either NY, Las Vegas, or California. And the all your videos tips was solid I Subscribed Coach! ~Michael (God's Assassin) Leonard Jr.

How’s it going? I’m 18 and did boxing/wrestling younger (14) and I didn’t like it since I was forced. Now I love it training kick boxing and BJJ. I know I’m naturally talented with the fighters my family has had and I love and enjoy it. I have goals of being a GOAT, and possibly a double-triple champ. High hopes, but I believe in myself and never needed anyone but myself. Best of luck brother. - Future Champ

He would have been even better without alcohol. I'm not sure about pot as many people claim it's not addictive nor does it have any adverse side effects.
