SONNY    LUQUE​

 I’ve always been into martial arts. I started tae kwon do and boxing when I was 6yrs old. I’ve always had that feeling that if I was born a couple of centuries swinging an ax during battle, I would have been right at home. Its just something I knew I was going to do all along, not necessarily mma, but I knew I had to do something with fighting. The drive is still there and has never left. I think every fighter wants to be the best. Anyone that says different is in the sport for the wrong reason and usually won’t last very long.

 

I also run my own gym so I am always in the thick of things. When I am not fighting I focus on training my fighters, managing, getting fights for my team. You know, coach stuff. Also since I was out last year with my injury I got to see the other side of MMA. I was a matchmaker for two successful shows. If it’s MMA and in my hometown, I wanna be involved anyway I can.
