This week, Bellator MMA Star AJ Mckee stops by to talk about his passion for all things fighting and chasing adrenaline. In this short and fun-packed episode, AJ shares why they call him "the Mercenary". He takes us back to his youth, growing up the son of a professional fighter in Antonio McKee. He remembers being on the mat from an early age, getting into competitive wrestling at the age of 6. AJ talks about how fighting has always just been a part of him, so it was natural that he would sign to Bellator in 2015.  Since joining Bellator MMA, he has not only fought but also broadcasted fights. Will asks McKee if he would consider pursuing broadcasting full time, but he says he needs more adrenaline in his life. He then goes into his passion for action sports like snowboarding. Later, The boys share a few laughs as Brock shares a memory about an encounter with Mike Tyson and make predictions for the upcoming Tyson v. Paul fight in July. This is a great episode for any fans of MMA, any fans of AJ McKee or anyone who loves fighting or adrenaline.
