When and why did you start training for fighting? I was visiting the Netherlands after I spent three months in Thailand to train for fun and to visit. And I started training at Golden Glory gym, where I met Alistair Overeem. He started helping me a lot and we became close. He took me everywhere for training while he was getting ready for his NYE fight. Then he asked me why I don't fight (I never thought of it) and that I should come back and he'll arrange an amateur fight for me. I came back did a full training camp with him while he was preparing for Remy Bonjasky until my fight. I won by KO and I loved it and that's how it started.

Did you go to college and if so what degree did you earn? No

What was your job before you started fighting? I owned a bar and was a personal trainer for a bit

Specific accomplishments in pro competition? 5-0 in pro kickboxing 

Favorite grappling technique: Arm triangle 

Favorite Striking technique: Left hook-low kick
