Adam Milstead celebrates victory in UFC debut with 12-hour work days

When he's not smashing faces inside the cage, you can find him rippin' lips from his kayak, testing the accuracy of his Springfield XD-S, or crafting his latest country tune. You may even find him tossing back a cold one in between (and he might even invite you to join him).

But it's not all fun for Milstead, who recently made his debut at UFC Fight Night 88 with a second-round TKO of Chris de la Rocha.

Milstead embraced the grind to ascend to the UFC, and the grind beat him up along the way.
