In the second of a three part series, UFC middleweight Josh Samman chronicles fight week for his bout with Tamdan McCrory at UFC on Fox 17.
Sunlight shines through the blinds Thursday afternoon and wakes me up. It feels good to have slept in, and I’m able to relax for a couple hours before the day’s tasks. There isn’t much on the itinerary aside from media at 3, and a final workout sometime in the evening.
I head downstairs, into a room with tables set aside for folks that have been credentialed for the event. Esther Lin is there, along with MMA Junkie, and Jay Reddick from the Orlando Sentinel.
