After waking up at 6 AM EST, flying from Newark to Los Angeles, running a bunch of errands, training at 5 Star Martial Arts, and cutting weight, Garry Tonon was kind enough to sit down for our podcast at 1 AM EST/10 PM PST to discuss EBI 5, training with John Danaher, his MMA aspirations, and BJJ sponsorships. I met up with Garry after his evening workout at 5 Star and we decided to go back to my apartment to watch the TUF Finale and grab sushi from the restaurant on the first floor of my complex. We had to wait until the end of the main event, which featured his teammate and training partner Frankie Edgar against Chad Mendes for the next shot at the UFC Featherweight title. I was worried, we would have to wait an extra 30 minutes for the fight to conclude to start the podcast since Garry had already had a very long day. Luckily, the fight was over by the middle of the first round and we were able to get started. I really appreciated Garry stopping by for the podcast after a long day of traveling and training.
