I had a great talk with MFC, XFFC, and KOTC veteran Cody Krahn ahead of his Unified MMA 32 fight with Jeff Porter.
We discussed the importance of body shots in this September 29th fight with Porter, returning to mma after almost two years of boxing and kickboxing (3:48), the excitement of performing for the Edmonton fans (5:11), his first bout with Unified MMA since June 2010 (5:52), rematching opponenets vs facing a brand new competitor (6:58), training with Cowboy Cerrone and Yair Rodriguez before this fight (8:07), Deciding between Thy Art is Murder and Run The Jewels for his walk out song (9:21), how teaching martial arts has informed his own approach (11:30), how analyzing fights as a commentator informs his perspectives about fighting (12:40), Bas Rutten inspiring Cody’s new nickname (15:16), and so much more!
