Follow Fitz Twitter: @BrendanFitzTV Instagram: @BrendanFitzTV Forrest Griffin Twitter: @ForrestGriffin Instagram: @ForrestGriffin Welcome to my new podcast! I have been interested in hosting an interview-style show for a few years now... it started when I actually learned the principles of interviewing from a man named John Sawatzky while working at ESPN. Now, with me position at the UFC and my access to fighters, I thought it was the perfect time to get going. I'm excited to launch the show with a UFC legend. I sat down with Forrest Griffin at the UFC Performance Institute in Las Vegas. In addition to being a former UFC champion and hall-of-famer, he's a really nice guy and always fun to run into at UFC headquarters. I thought he would make the perfect guest to help launch the show. We talk about his upbringing in Augusta, GA... what he learned when he started getting in fights as a kid... going to college and discovering different combat sports... his time in law enforcement and ultimately quitting his job to pursue MMA on the first season of The Ultimate Fighter... becoming a UFC champion, and also losing the belt... the challenge of dealing with the abrupt end to his career... and life now as he continues to help fighters and keep the UFC as the top MMA promotion in the world.
