When and why did you start training for fighting? I started training at 15 years old. In the beginning, I started for fun.

Do you have any heroes? I’m my own hero.

What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC? I’m happy to fight for the UFC. I will be the champion very soon. That’s my goal, and that’s what I said to myself when I started MMA.

Did you go to college and if so what degree did you earn? I finished high school in Greece with 18/20. 

What was your job before you started fighting? I didn’t have a job, I was just playing football.
