Fighters Who Motivate You To Train And Be Your Best

[GEB]

For Me it is Anderson Silva, I can't wait to see that guy figiht.
Also Brock Lesnar he is one of the baddest and most real athletes I have seen. Since I recall him doing promos even a year or two before being in wwe
Nick Diaz
and I am sure another I am not thinking of.
Anyone else have a fighter that motivates them?

Maybe patrick cote or josh neer.
Hard bastards who arent necessarily natural athletes.

Everytime i watch the Smashing Machine i have this urge to go and train?!

GSP and Cote and Hamill

All different fighter, but they got me chills when they fight and force myself to train really hard

Captain America and GSP

Randy Couture is an obvious one but I kinda dont use him for myself. Theres a pro in my gym whos about 39 and has fought on some big shows and is busting his ass to hopefully make it into the WEC and realize his dream of winning a big time belt. Sometimes ill help him with his conditoning workout which makes me cry watching, part of it is me jumping on his back and him sprinting from one end of the gym to another and I always try to remind him about Coutures success at an advanced age and remind him about how great Coutures work ethic is and say "This is what makes Couture who he is and hes human if he can do it you can do it" . When im in a hard training session alot of times I try to think of the guys who like myself didnt start out as wrestlers which we know makes a big difference. I think of guys like Rich Franklin who have to work twice as hard to acheive everything he has as a Mixed Martial Artist.

I'm going to have to throw Nate Diaz out there too. TUF 5 was just too awsome

That right there would inspire someone younger, for sure.

For me it's clearly Fedor, he's a great representative of Russia, and I have utmost respect for him. He's very genuine, fearless, calm and 0 cockiness. Silent killer. Can't be more badass than that.

Yeah its not always who I wanna be like as a fighters theres certain people I wanna conduct myself like and Fedor he is one of them. Whats that old saying when you make it to the endzone act like you have been there before ? Fedor after ever win shows no disrespect in any way at all and carrys himself like a true Champion. Anytime ive won in a BJJ match or amateur boxing people think I dont care that I won but I love that I won im just not the type to go apeshit.
