Why I Fight | Joe Johnson

Name:

Joe Johnson

What is your passion in life?

That’s a hard one. I try hard to be happy each and every day and to savor the moments as they pass. I am blessed to be clean and sober since 9/14/99 and to remember how amazing that is. To be full of gratitude each and every day.

Who do you fight for?

One challenge for me starting at EBF was that I was older and not as fit as other guys, but Sarah helped me realize that  I was fighting for myself. Comparison is the thief of joy. Each Wednesday and Friday, I show up no matter what and leave it all on the mat every day. I am trying to make the most out of each and every day and not worry about others’ thoughts or views. Be the best me.
