Gabe Sagman is a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Black Belt and Pro MMA fighter fighting out of House of Champions MMA in Stoney Creek, Ontario Canada. His martial arts career transitions from from Shotokan Karate, BJJ before putting his man focus into becoming a pro MMA Fighter. Currently with a 6-4 record Gabe is looking for that next opportunity to get back into action but like everyone has had those goals put on hold with the pandemic derailing those actions.

We talk about his fighting career as a whole with his philosophy in his training, experiences in and out of the cage in his own career, experiences working at the UFC Performance Institute and his next steps when he eventually finishes his career inside the cage.

Gabe’s martial arts journey began with Shotokan Karate. After earning his black belt, Gabe’s thirst for knowledge grew, as the UFC and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu caught his eye. With the interest of learning real self-defence that would work on someone bigger and stronger, Gabe started training at a local MMA academy. While the gym offered Muay Thai and other classes, Gabe fell in love with BJJ and started competing within months of training. In addition to the learning and competing, Gabe enjoyed being a part of the culture and community that BJJ provided. As he explains, “Jiu-Jitsu has a way of bringing people together. You have doctors, students, and people from all different walks of life stepping on the mats and training together. These are people who otherwise probably would never have met, and they build strong bonds and friendships through the training.”

Enjoy the show.
