Show notes
In this Digital Social Hour episode, UFC middleweight contender Caio Borralho joins the show to break down what really makes a complete fighter. From training with a stacked team in Vegas to preparing for the biggest fight of his career, Caio shares how elite MMA has evolved, why every fighter has a weakness, and why he believes Jon Jones is the GOAT.
Caio opens up about fighting through injuries, breaking his foot before a fight, and the brutal reality of surviving in the UFC. He also shares the mindset that helped him stay ready after being passed over on Dana Whiteโ€™s Contender Series โ€” and how that second chance changed his life forever.
