 The Juggernauts and Gladiators Organization is proud to present: The Face of JAG: Thay Budo!
Ebay- Tonight, we have a very special interview. It's not about a fight but a fighter and not just any fighter but THE fighter in the Juggernauts and Gladiators Organization, the 205 lb champion, Thay Budo. Welcome Champ. It's great to speak with you again. How's does it feel to be singled out as the pound for pound best fighter in JAG?
Thay- Yo Ebay, it's cool to see you again, to be honest it feels great even if I know I have a big target on my back. And actually it's even more motivating. I train everyday to be the best possible while I can. My last fight was my first big Challenge and I really proved I am the best right here
Ebay- I can't agree more with you Champ, it's a real pleasure to watch you in the cage even if it's usually less than a minute. It's a great minute. Can you tell the fans out there a little about your past and how you came to JAG?
Thay- As everyone knows I come from Sao Paulo, Brazil. I started MMA not too long ago I was only 23 YO and after a Year I met my current Manager Mr Wonder. He helped me a lot with many things and taught me a lot about MMA training and way of living. When I turned 25 he told me to join his new gym in Tokyo where I would be able to live from MMA and be a professional fighter. I made my first pro fights and won all of them by KO in less than a minute. He was directly contacted by Nate Baker and they found an agreement to make me fight in JAG. You all know what happened next, Sleeping Pill effect, 4 fights, 4 sleeping men, a title, 3 defenses, and the number 1 rank in JAG.
Ebay- That's a fantastic story and we're certainly glad it all worked out for you. What do you attribute to your success thus far in JAG? Is it your power? Determination? Hard work?
Thay- Only one thing bro, hard work pays off
Ebay- Do you here that all you up and coming fighters? If you want to be the best at anything you must work hard at it. Nothing comes easy in life for most of us. Especially here in JAG. What are your plans moving forward and how do you intend to stay on top?
Thay- I don't really make plans I let that part to my manager and Nate, the only thing I care about is knocking people out, "I'm gonna knock you out, mama said knock you out"
Ebay- Yes! LL Kool J. Now that songs going to be in my head all day. Thanks a lot. Okay Champ, I'd like to thank you one more time for speaking with us tonight but one last question before we go, could you tell us why JAG is such a great organization and why other fighters looking to prove themselves should come to JAG?
Thay- Haha I don't know bro I'm really good here and I love new challenges so come join us and let's bring it on!
Ebay- And there you have JAGsters and all the fight fans at MMATYCOON, Thay Budo, the 205lb JAG Champion and the pound for pound best fighter in the organization. Stay tuned for more exciting interviews coming up in the near future and be sure you check out JAGs latest event Saturday the 15th of September in Las Vegas. See you there folks.
