    MMA is so special because it is truly a journey from nothingness to everything. You aren't going through some top tier university sports program that gets you into the NFL or NBA. No, you are truly starting from scratch at a small gym and work your way up to the top of the world. Islam is truly one of those stories and coming from a much lesser priveledged region from a foreign country. Charles is also the same. MMA is definitely the best showcase of the hardest working athletes in the world
