Mike Moor, better known as "Mindset Mike," is a mental coach for combat sports athletes, including fighters in the UFC.
I thought since a lot of my conversations with fighters have gone down a path of personal development and mindset traits that have allowed them to reach the sport's top level, it would be interesting to talk to someone who helps get them there.
This is part 2 of my interview with Mike and I think anyone interested in the realm of the mindset of world-class athletes will enjoy!

Here is part 2 of my interview with Billy Quarantillo!
UFC featherweight Billy Quarantillo is coming off his fight vs. Gabriel Benitez in which he not only won, but also scored a Fight of the Night bonus at UFC Fight Night on July 17.
Quarantillo is an all-action fighter who has also delivered wins over Spike Carlyle and Kyle Nelson and he's also fought top prospect Gavin Tucker.
Billy Quarantillo once appeared on The Ultimate Fighter. After that wasn't his ticket to the UFC, he racked up more MMA wins to get a spot on Dana White's Contender Series. A win over Kamuela Kirk ultimately got him his UFC contract.
He is now focused on climbing the UFC rankings and becoming a UFC champion!

UFC featherweight veteran Andre Fili joins Brendan Fitzgerald on the newest episode of Fitz Nation.
Fili is coming off a disappoining 'no contest' result in his last fight, where he was showing arguably the best form of his career before an eye poke. He has been in the UFC a long time and really has come a long way since coming from a broken home in Washington state.
He has grown into a leader at Team Alpha Male in Sacramento and has much to be proud of, but of course, his focus is on the future and winning a UFC championship.
