Shownotes
Joined today, by UFC legend, Mark the Filipino wrecking machine Muñoz. Mark talks about being a Lolo (grandfather), becoming a comic book superhero in the loop with a vengeance comic series, and his superhero skills. He shares what life was like, growing up in California, how bullying led him to wrestling and why he chose to go to Oklahoma State. We hear about his first experience meeting a cowboy in Oklahoma, the insane knowledge of Oklahoma and wrestling fans, and how we had to lie about a party just to get his future wife’s phone number. We discuss his move back to California to coach, what made him decide to choose a career in mixed martial arts (MMA) and how he was thrown to the walls in his first training session by sparring with Randy Couture. We talk about his time in the UFC, bringing MMA out to the Philippines and why he decided that he needed to retire. From his son’s surging wrestling career to hanging/working out with Manny Pacquiao. All this and more with one of the nicest guys in the history of the UFC.
