At LFA 80 Josiah Reyes takes on Rickey Esquibel. I caught up with Reyes at Luttrell/Yee MMA & Fitness to talk about the upcoming fight. Reyes also talks about how teaching youth Jiu Jitsu has taught him a few thing. Also Josiah has started to fall in love with and wrestling. Plus, Reyes looks back how big of a win was his pro debut and could there be a let down in this fight.
