234. Building Community and Trust with Andy and Melvis
from We’ll Take it From Here with Joe · host We’ll Take it From Here with Joe
We welcome back Andy Main and Melvis Figueroa. By now you have all heard about Pure MMA from this show; well today, we are joined by one of its founders, Andy Main, and one of the head Muay Thai instructors, Melvis Figueroa. Both have been on the show before (Andy at episode 49 & and Mel at episode 205), however we figured it would be neat to have them both on to share some stories of their time training together. While not related, the two have formed a brother-like relationship through their intense training over the years. Both men fought professionally in MMA with Andy becoming a Bellator Champion. Today, we got a neat understanding of how the culture of Pure MMA was established and why it is one of the top gyms around with around 500-600 total members. We also hear some funny stories from Andy and Mel's time on the mats together.
