The sport of MMA has plenty of stories to motivate and we have even heard a few of those stories over the years here on FIST-ta-CUFF Radio. However when it comes to the story of Garrett “G-Money” Holeve this is the true story of heart, determination, and a will to never give up. Garrett’s name has been in the news as of recent and ESPN even did a very nice piece, but it wasn’t because Garrett’s size, his future as a legend in the sport, or the fact that he is knocking out opponents, it’s because Garrett defines what it means to be a fighter. Holeve suffers from Rheumatoid Arthritis, a painful disease that leads to inflammation of joints and surrounding tissues, but refuses to let that or the fact that he was born with Down’s syndrome, a chromosomal condition from stopping his dream. Garrett has a dream of being a fighter and has already started making that dream a reality. We will talk with Garrett about his love for MMA, teaching children at his branch of ATT, and much more.
