Ryan Bader’s support of the United States military has been one of the light heavyweight contender’s primary focuses during his time under the UFC banner, and those efforts are continuing with his most recent contribution to Hire Heroes USA.
The former Arizona State-wrestling-standout-turned top-ranked mixed martial artist’s $5,000 donation to the organization lead by former UFC standout and decorated military veteran Brian Stann is the latest contribution in what has been an ongoing effort from the Nevada native. Over the past five years, Bader has worked with companies dedicated to providing support for service men and women who are returning from war and attempting to adjust to civilian life.
