The Warrior Code of Gilbert Melendez
Gilbert Melendez is one of the toughest lightweight fighters
on the entire planet. During his
reign as Strikeforce Lightweight World Champion he successfully defended his
title 6 times, and prior to that he was the WEC Lightweight World Champion. Earlier this year Gilbert made his UFC
debut, which also happened to be a UFC Lightweight World Championship fight
against Benson Henderson. He lost
that fight by a razor tight split decision, but you can bet that we will see Gilbert
contending for the title again in the very near future.
As all the world’s top mixed martial artists do, Gilbert
Melendez lives his life with a warrior code. It is a lifestyle, a philosophy, and a way of viewing the
world. In a recent interview with
the UFC, Gilbert shared his warrior code and perspective on the fighting life. Check out what Gilbert had to say in
the below video.
