Patchy Mix, making his UFC debut at UFC 316, reflects on the differences between watching Fight Weeks and participating in his own. Having previously been the Bellator bantamweight champion, his move to UFC follows a year marked by cancelled fights and grappling victories. Mix emphasizes the importance of readiness and timing, sharing his excitement about competing in the world's largest MMA organization. His past achievements, including a million-dollar championship win, bolster his confidence as he prepares to face Mario Bautista in the octagon.
I stayed ready for a whole year. I had two fights cancelled. I ended up going to Dubai and beating up the ONE champion in grappling.
The UFC is the biggest organization in the world. So it was the perfect timing to accept a fight, my weight had already been in check.
