- Origin of nickname: “‘The Mongoose’ in Spanish. My coach, Josh Barnett, gave it to me, saying, ‘You're just like mongoose - They're very energetic, curious, and somewhat of a trickster, but when it comes time to fight, they're absolutely vicious and go for the kill.’ They take on the cobra with no hesitation. Plus, you speak Spanish, you half-gringo.’”

When and why did you start training for fighting? Growing up in a place like Southgate, you going to need to know how to fight, so I figured I'd get good at it at least to start with.
Training: HARD! I start the day off with boxing work and coach Jamal. Then some drilling at California Mixed Martial Arts with my UWFxUSA teammates before practice. Team training at CMMA with whatever is on the menu for the day. Later a run or strength work then off to sling booze and pizza at The Bowery. Oh, and constantly eating all day!
What ranks and titles have you held? LXF Bantamweight Champion, Super Fight League America Bantamweight Champion, DEEP Bantamweight Champion, 2018 Billy Robinson Invitational Weight class and Open weight Champion (Catch Wrestling), King of Catch 2021 Weight class and Open weight Champion (Catch Wrestling)
Do you have any heroes? Godzilla. The Pillsbury Doughboy, as he seems to be immortal.
What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC? It's a benchmark type goal and even though I have fought and beaten guys in the UFC and all over the world, the UFC is the place with the highest recognition. Plus it’s going to help me afford getting my '70 Cutlass finished. Cars are expensive and fast cars even more so.
What was your job before you started fighting? Still have one - bartender/bouncer. But before that I've worked as a dish washer, smog technician, ride operator at Knott's Berry Farm, and generally a rapscallion.
Specific accomplishments in pro competition? Undefeated in RIZIN and undefeated in Russia, fought for the King of Pancrase title.
