MTG 063: Duane "Bang" Ludwig Drops Major Knowledge Bombs - a podcast by Sean Fagan

Let me just start off by saying that I've been a huge fan of Duane Ludwig since I got started in Muay Thai and kickboxing. He's fought some of the best in the world including John Wayne Parr, Masato, Ramon Dekkers, Albert Kraus, Malaipet and others. Not only that, but he also coached Team Alpha Male to their first UFC title by helping TJ Dillashaw defeat Renan Barao... needless to say, Duane knows his shit.
