When and why did you start training for fighting? The first MMA fight I saw was Tito Ortiz vs Chuck Liddell 2 at UFC 66 and I was so inspired. So I started with MMA in 2012 because I love fighting. I fought my whole life and when I heard I can make it my job, it became my new goal / dream. By the way, I was rooting for Tito Ortiz because he was a wrestler and I was also wrestling at this time.

What ranks and titles have you held? MMA: Highest world ranking #104. #6 ranked in ACB. Aggrelin Champion. KraftHerr Fight Night Champion. Wrestling: 5x Austrian Champion. K-1: 1x Austrian Champion

Did you go to college and if so what degree did you earn? I just completed the compulsory school.

What was your job before you started fighting? I worked as a truck mechanic for 3 years. At that time, I always got up very early before work and was training, then went to work for about 9-13 hours and trained again after work. That was my everyday life.

Specific accomplishments in amateur competition? 5x Austrian champion in wrestling. 3x country champion in wrestling. 1x Austrian champion in K-1. Adidas cup champion in grappling (blue belt). 3x country champion in grappling (blue/purple belt)
