UR Podcast #015: Urijah Faber, The California Kid - a podcast by Urban Gym

"I'm gonna be the baddest dude on the planet".

An interesting choice of words for our February guest whose infectious smile may have you believe otherwise.

But for Urijah Faber, it's a belief he held from a very early age and sustained throughout near 20-year MMA career - that's still active.

The UFC Hall of Famer joins UR Podcast to talk candidly about his early fight days, becoming the best version of himself training, testing and adapting along the way.

We talk lows, highs, challenges, adversity, excuses, mindset, fatherhood and more in a wide-ranging conversation with an athlete whose name will forever be linked to the sport of mixed martial arts.

Outside of the cage, Faber has opened the doors of his Team Alpha Male facility in Sacramento to athletes from all over the world, rapidly becoming a hotbed for champions and competitors of the highest level.

But what does it take to get there, and stay there?

In just under an hour you'll hear a lot about his journey, his story, and in 2021 with his 42nd birthday approaching and a hunger that still burns brightly, what may come next.

If you've ever had cause to question what you're doing in work or sport, you may we'll find some inspiration right here.

This episode contains mild swearing.
