My special guest is Johnny "Cupcakes" Campbell, an MMA fighter, bjj brown belt, and all-around awesome individual. Johnny's fight at Cage Titans 9 years ago was what turned me back into a fan of the sport. We had a great first interview a few days after that and another at Brown University a few years later. It was great catching up with Johnny after his latest win at Bellator. We discussed: His willingness to take fights on short notice. Overcoming negative thinking and dark thoughts. How at 34 he is in peak performance, physically and emotionally. Loyalty to his gym South Shore Sportfighting in Rockland and his coach Bill Mahoney. Why he fights and his plans after he retires. If he worries about brain health. What he gets out of playing video games. Also includes the short dystopian story "Two Minutes to Midnight" For more on Johnny: Follow him at: https://www.facebook.com/cupcakesmma https://twitter.com/JohnnyCCMma IG @johnnyccmma
