Throwin’ Hands, Reppin’ 805: 2 Local Undefeated Rising MMA Stars Share the Grind, Glory, and Grit in Fighting for Something Bigger

Published 9 months ago
Description

Two undefeated MMA fighters from Paso Robles — both young, hungry, and ready to throw down. In this episode of Up + Adam, we sit down with Hunter Thompson and Octavio Gonzalez ahead of their April 19th bouts at 559 Fights 113 in Visalia. But this isn’t just for fight fans — it’s a raw, real convo about what it means to chase a dream, train your body and mind, and represent your hometown with pride.


We get into what brought them into the sport, the mental and physical grind of fight prep, and how this path is about more than winning — it’s about pushing limits and showing Paso what’s possible.
