Over the weekend, a stunning piece of television was broadcast on ESPN, focusing on the compelling tale of aspiring mixed martial artist Rad Martinez and his dreams of making the big time and the UFC.
The main challenge to his goal lies in a promise he made many years ago to his grandmother on her deathbed: to provide 24/7 care for his brain damaged father.
It’s a touching story of how one man’s has kept his word even after several years and, hopefully, will lead to him being able to gain considerably more time to train and pursue his dream while providing for his father.
