10 Questions With Brad Dillon (by Darrick Patrick)
Brad Dillon is a professional mixed martial artist who has appeared in events such as Next Level Fighting and Fight Force International. He is also an aspiring actor and stunt man working on making major moves in the film industry.
Darrick: What road led you to professional mixed martial arts?
Brad: I have studied martial arts since I was four. MMA is the new evolution of martial arts, so naturally I got into it!
Darrick: Who is someone in the sport that you've always admired?
Brad: I have always admired Kazushi Sakuraba! He has the heart of a lion and is a great fighter & person!
Darrick: What does a typical workout session for you consist of?
Brad: A typical session starts at 5 a.m. with a two mile run, then I eat and take my supplements. At 10 a.m. I train my technique in Muay Thai and BJJ, then I take the afternoon off. In the evening I train again - bagwork, drills, cardio, etc.! I also lift weights three days a week at the local gym. I'm really sporatic with my training!
Darrick: You're also available for seminars, tell us more about that.
Brad: More than anything I want to teach people what I know and share my knowledge! I am developing my own fighting system that will have a belt rank system and I want to try to spread it worldwide! Teaching is something I'm more concerned with than becoming a champion!
If anyone would like more info on private training and seminars, I can be contacted on my MySpace account! I also help other fighters prepare for upcoming fights!
Darrick: Who are some of the people that have greatly inspired you in life?
Brad: My parents 'cause they never gave up on me, Jackie Chan, and now my wife - she makes me the strongest!
Darrick: Outside of MMA, what are your other interests?
Brad: I love to camp, hike, and spend time in the outdoors doing crazy stuff like Bear Grylls on Man vs. Wild! Also, spending time with my wife and my son!
Darrick: What comic book character do you relate to most and why?
Brad: SPIDER-MAN! I'm long and lean with long arms & legs that wrap people up while grappling. I am also a master at the infamous spider guard technique!
Darrick: Tell us something about you that most people don't know.
Brad: I'm actually a really sensitive guy for being a hardcore fighter!
Darrick: What is your oldest memory?
Brad: Winning my first national karate title at the age of seven!
Darrick: When you're no longer amongst the living, how would you like to be remembered?
Brad: Not as a great fighter, not as a great athlete, or anything like that. I would like to be remembered as a great husband, father, son, brother and most importantly - a great person!
