When and why did you start training for fighting? I started fighting in Atlanta, Georgia in 2014.  I grew up fighting. I had three scholarships after winning two state championships in 2009 in Georgia high school. I had a kid right after I got out of school, so I had to start working instead of school. I ended up going to a fight gym to check it out. Now I’m on top of the world. The rest is history. 

What professional titles have you held? King of Sparta 8-man tournament flyweight champion, Valor Fighting Championships bantamweight champion.

Any accomplishments in amateur combat sports? 5-1 record 2x state champion in wrestling in Georgia.

Any belts/ ranks in grappling disciplines? Brown belt in BJJ, New Breed absolute champion

Any belts/ ranks in striking disciplines? 4-0 in pro boxing 

What has been your toughest fight to date and why? Chris Gutierrez was my UFC debut. It was my second fight in two weeks up a weight class. I took the fight on six days’ notice and I fought him to a draw. he was a lot bigger than me. After that fight, I decided I needed to go to my weight class which was 125!

Who is your favorite fighter and why? Dustin Poirier. He is a resilient fighter and he always puts on exciting fights.

What was your job before you started fighting? Construction worker

Personal Life / Background:  I’ve been married to my awesome wife Brittany Durden for 8 years; I have two amazing kids - Carson and Jaylynn. My wife and I also have a 2-year-old French bulldog named Fiona - She is our baby! I love to hunt, fish, and train to WIN. Last year I shot the GA state record Turkey. In my spare time, I mainly spend it with my family and friends making core memories. I am currently working on opening up my own gym with two of my awesome friends. It is a dream of mine to be able to coach others and give back to my craft / community.
