The UFC put out an excellent Youtube video that features one half of the UFC 138 main event, Mark Munoz. The video shows him training in his gym, Reign Training Center, while he discusses his life over the footage. It's an interesting look at a fighter that is in the main event for the first time. It covers where his parents are from, how they came to America, and how he got into sports in California to not get picked on by others. He briefly discusses his college wrestling and coaching career, and says the day it all changed was the day he met Urijah Faber. He also tells an amusing story about his first-ever sparring session, where he didn't even know how to wrap his hands. Who was his sparring partner? Randy Couture.
Munoz faces Chris Leben this Saturday at UFC 138 in the first five-round non-title fight in UFC history.
