Ever wondered what happens when the gloves come off and the arena lights dim? Float like a butterfly with us as we chat with Shannon Clark, the LFA featherweight champion with a punch, and her coach, Joel Odorski, who packs a coaching style as unique as his fighter's left hook. They're sharing everything from the emotional highs of victory to the gut-busting tales of weight cuts. Get ready to go beyond the octagon and into the lives of those who live and breathe MMA.

Strap in for a roundhouse of laughter and insight as Shannon recounts the peculiar fame that accompanies her triumphs and the surprisingly civil coffee runs with former opponents. Meanwhile, Joel provides a cornerman's perspective on the bond between coach and athlete, and the often-comical realities of getting a fighter battle-ready. As they pull back the curtain on their world, you'll find yourself ringside for candid conversations about the delicate balance of family life, training schedules, and the literary preferences that shape a champion's mindset.

As the final bell rings on this episode, we're not just throwing in the towel; we're unpacking it, sharing tales of roadside shirt swaps and the unexpected challenges of traveling with fight gear. From the supportive shouts of training partners to the echoing click of a follow button on social media, join us for a knockout session that explores every corner of the cage—and the laughter that echoes beyond it. Don't miss a second of the action with Shannon and Joel; it's a conversation that hits harder than a championship-winning uppercut.
