Daniel Spitz ”I want to eventually be in a position where I can build kids up”

Daniel Spitz takes on ACB veteran/ former Unified MMA champion Tanner Boser at UFC on ESPN: Reyes vs Weidman. The heavyweight bout opens up the preliminary portion of the card.

I was happy to talk to Spitz about: the benefits of his self-induced layoff

-how his college football background informs his MMA preparations

-thoughts on Boser "He fought some fat, unathletic dudes in ACB and went to decisions with all of them. I don't think he's necessarily the most dangerous heavyweight I've ever thought. But he does have good cardio and he's durable."

-getting stranded in Russia and a fight getting canceled via bomb threat

-"Trying to get a little more scientific with it."

-Pulling out of a fight for depression/ suicidal thoughts and how he wants to prove to also struggling with mental health people that you don't have to stay down there
