Text me a question for the show Fitz Nation on YouTube Fitz Nation on UFC Fight Pass Fitz Nation is back with friend of the show and MMA coach Sayif Saud! Sayif has become a good friend of mine over the years and I always love talking about life with him. He's the kind of guy that will always leave you feeling better, more motivated, more perceptive, or whatever you happen to need with what you're going through. It's why I always look to get him back on the show when there's a big-picture topic I am looking to discuss. We talk about the wonderful and very simple book Ego is the Enemy by Ryan Holiday. It's a short and easy read, but can do wonders for centering yourself and getting to work on what's most important in a world that is so focused on chasing down distractions.

Text me a question for the show Often times, fighters have life journeys filled with struggle and adversity. It's part of what it takes to have the mentality one needs to do what they do. Ian Heinisch is one of the best examples of a life journey that has twists and turns, ups and downs, and also shows that despite achieving success, the road does not end with an accomplishment. It just opens a new door. From getting involved with drugs, then dealing and trafficking them, then being arrested and serving hard time, Ian certainly battled his demons. He eventually fought his way to the UFC to compete with the best fighters in the world. Now, he is fighting another battle to get healthy as he tries to compete in combat sports again and really wants to make his UFC return in 2024. His relentless pursuit of great things is to be admired by all and a great way to kick off 2024! Follow Fitz: Instagram TikTok Twitter…
