Aiden grew up following the UFC and WWE, and I was blown away by how much fight knowledge he has — even from the older days, especially Aiden being on the younger side and a lot of the fights were way before his time. Great conversation and a lot of fun getting to know him better.Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe!Sponsored by TACFIT.com “The World’s Smartest Workout” Açai Jungle Cafe “Your neighborhood Paradise” AcaiJungleCafe.comLEGACYlegacybjj.com
