WSOF 23's caped crusader, Phoenix Jones, has cardio of 15 tigers, talks 'monster' training with Demetrious Johnson

Ben Fodor, a.k.a. Phoenix Jones, arrived in World Series of Fighting (WSOF) riding a mixed martial arts (MMA) hype train as the costumed crime fighting super hero of Seattle. Unfortunately for Jones, he was unmasked in his WSOF debut and now has to rebuild his identity against Roberto Yong.

Phoenix Jones was the man -- so much so that Ben Fodor seemed to be his alter ego instead of the other way around.

Expectations were certainly high as the real life costumed crime fighter of Seattle, Wash., was set to stop patrolling the streets for the night of April 10, 2015, and engage in a different form of combat -- catchweight MMA competition with Emmanuel Walo at WSOF 20 in Mashantucket, Connecticut.
