Fight camp with the UFC interim bantamweight champion Petr Yan


Listen Later

Last weekend, Petr Yan beat Cory Sandhagen via unanimous decision for the UFC interim bantamweight title at UFC 267 in Abu Dhabi, and I had front row seats in his corner.

I am extremely grateful to have been involved in the preparations for this fight, and the memories of this experience will be cherished forever!

I did record a solo episode trying to sum up the experience...but it was pretty lacklustre if I'm honest.

So I thought, "Who would I love to have a conversation with, that will ask genuine questions and bring out the best of me through describing and sharing this monumental journey?"

Enter Jamie O'Donnell.
Jamie is a friend, a colleague, and an awesome guy with great conversational and communication skills. We were also due for a catch-up, so I reached out to him to record an episode. The plan was to record a couple of different conversations over the course of an hour, to drop them as separate episodes. Well, we recorded for over 3 hours.

Enjoy these insights into how I started working with Petr Yan, along with intimate details of what it was like being immersed in a full fight camp in Russia prior to his Fight of the Night performance in an epic battle that will surely be a Fight of the Year contender.
This is the first of those conversations, which will be released in the coming weeks.

Shaun Kober is a Mindset & Performance Specialist, with a unique skillset forged in the trenches, through the various stages of life.

"I shouldn’t be in the position I am right now."

The odds were stacked against me:

● Poor family on welfare, eldest of 6 kids, parents didn’t work, abusive step-dad, no electricity or running water for a 6 years period of my life

● Caught up with the wrong crowd, stealing, drugs, skipping school

● At 14 years old, I sat on a bus for 3 days with $50 in my pocket, to travel to the next State over West, to begin a new life in the workforce - 2000

14 - 20: I grew up and learned how to become a man through work and rugby
20 - 26: I lived, trained and fought as a professional soldier, at a high level
26 - 32: I became a personal trainer, after failing in my pursuit to become a firefighter
32 - 38: I worked with, and won world titles with some of the best athletes on the planet, as their strength and conditioning coach
38+: The next evolution begins
