One day he decided to try to learn karate so he could stand up for himself. He ended up learning many types of martial arts.
"Even though I'd been studying karate since the age of seven, I realized when I was nine years old that life isnt like a movie. The bullies will win."

Even though the doctor told him he will no longer be able to pursuit his passion his will power overcame the expectations of all the peoples doubts.
"In eight months of surgery, recovery, therapy, and training, I would define the new version of me and leave my old shell behind".

"Without the bullies and the a***oles and the jerks, I would have never become who I am today. I would never have been lucky enough to prove them wrong."

"He has lesions on his face, soon after that he had scabs all over. There were five or six doctors checking on him all the time. We were really scared for him" Pg 21]]> 2020-01-20 05:17:56 UTC https://padlet.com/dediochr000/ulwnj5ywidvi/wish/433526640 https://padlet.com/dediochr000/ulwnj5ywidvi/wish/433528200 He picked a fight with a guy named Joel thinking it was a joke. He learned to always expect the unexpected because when he didnt he got punched in the face and rolled down a mountain with a bloody nose. "And so I barely had the word yes out of my mouth when he landed a straight right to my nose. THWACK!!!"

He didnt have many friends and he was even manipluated by people. "He did have two very nice girlfriends for a while, but I think they became possessive, and you never tell Georges what to do"Pg 37]]> 2020-01-20 06:02:47 UTC https://padlet.com/dediochr000/ulwnj5ywidvi/wish/433532801 https://padlet.com/dediochr000/ulwnj5ywidvi/wish/433533854 One day George was able to meet one of his idols. His name was Kristof Midoux, a pretty popular french MMA fighter. Then George was lucky enough to get Kristof to train him.
"I responded by telling im id been looking for him because I badly wanted him to me my teacher. ""Why me?"" Kristof asked. ""Because Ive seen you fight""."Pg 47]]> 2020-01-20 06:10:35 UTC https://padlet.com/dediochr000/ulwnj5ywidvi/wish/433533854 dediochr000 https://padlet.com/dediochr000/ulwnj5ywidvi/wish/433597157 As he was nervous for his first MMA fight Kristof always told him he could do this and motivate him. Even though he was in a corner being hit repeatedly he was able to use his adrenaline to his advanatage. "I didn't have a choice. So I used the surge of adrenaline to roll him, got him on his back and won".
