The Monday morning of the biggest fight week of his life, Brian Ortega is up early to do TV.
Leading up to his men's featherweight title shot against Max Holloway on Saturday at UFC 231 in Toronto, Ortega has been slammed with interview requests. At least one 24-hour sports network is planning a major feature on him prior to the bout. It seems the undefeated 27-year-old has finally reached the level where mainstream media want deep dives into his up-from-nothing life story.
So, Ortega and longtime coach James Luhrsen are in the car at 9:30 a.
