Will Chope, the six-four tall Florida native dubbed “The World’s Tallest Featherweight” has branched out from his MMA roots into the sweet science. He just finished a boxing match in Dipolog City against WBF World Champion Boxer Dondon Sultan where he won by the 4th round. The argument that “The Kill” casts the longest shadow as a foreigner in Asia’s fight scene is hard to dispute. In MMA alone he has amassed an impressive 34-14 record since his debut in 2010 that has seen him range far afield as Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, Taiwan, China, and the Philippines. What's next for "The Kill"? Find out in our upcoming interview as we talk about his signatrue Lanky Madness style, teaching and fighting in Northern China, travelling across Asia to fight and train, and his upcoming RFC Taiwan MMA match. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rex De Lara is the 38th ranked of 190 active Southeast Asia Pro MMA Bantamweights, a URCC contender, and is one of the few fighters to have beaten current Brave CF champ Stephen Loman of Team Lakay in the cage. We caught up to the ferocious bantamweight and Team MUMMA pioneer at MUMMA Urban FIght Club, Makati to talk about his upcoming cage match at RFC Taiwan, the uses of BJJ for MMA, and his training format for stand-up fights. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Don't forget to like and share our Facebook page: www.facebook.com/dstrymnl Follow us on: Instagram: @dstrymnlpodcast Twitter: @dstrymnlpodcast
