  • Even in the talent-rich world of MMA, Bo Nickal is a real standout. A long-time folkstyle wrestler of the highest caliber, he discovered devastating power in his hands upon transitioning to MMA, dusting off every single opponent inside a round. It’s time to follow the footsteps of this ambitious fighter, who is now hailed as the biggest rising star in the UFC.

    Started wrestling at the age of 5. That there is the reason he is so good.
    So many times i see people saying "mountain genetics" when talking about Dagestanis disregarding the fact that they like Bo have been training their entire life.

I then, very aggressively told those shady tatt wearers to back up and don't even think about it. They immediately backed up and walked away, it was a week later that i realized it WAS Bo putting his baby in the backseat.

Calling out the next guy you want, etc. Sounds dumb, but that's how they do it. People who watch this are watching people trying to kick the crap out of others.
