The UFC is a spectacle: a stunning mix of athleticism, quick thinking, and jaw-dropping violence. My friend Ford refers to it as "Elegant Brutality" a phrase so perfect that he's branded his MMA Instagram as such.
With UFC 302 coming up this weekend, there's no better person to discuss the event than Ford. The man is as knowledgeable about the sport as anyone, and it shows: from his in-depth previews and analysis on his Instagram, @elegant.brutality, to his stunning photography work, Ford has truly transformed his passion into something special.
In this conversation, we discuss how Ford got into the sport, the art of photographing the physicality of MMA, my first experience at UFC 296 (which featured Paddy "The Baddy" Pimblett), and the key fights for this weekend's event, UFC 302.
Thanks for tuning in to Channel IV's official audio feed. More conversations and more topics will be on the way soon.
