Meet 16-year-old Brendan Hussey.
As he himself likes to say, he has some physical differences, but that’s no reason for him to dream small.
A blue belt at GMA member school Gracie Barra New Mexico, in Albuquerque, Hussey wants to be the first ever amputee to fight in the UFC.
And for that, he trains almost every day.
He is very clear on the importance of the gentle art in his life: “Jiu-Jitsu makes me feel human.”
