Wanderlei Silva Presents: 'Fighter Life' Reality Show, Episode Two

Andrew MahlmannFeb 28, 2011

Episode two delves deeper and deeper into the personal sacrifice required by each of the new fighters training with 'Wand Fight Team'.

Although each of the fighters are experienced in their own right, they all revel in the intensity and world-class training that they can only find at Wanderlei's gym.

One fighter talks about how he is used to training two-a-days, but that those previous regiments cannot compare to the pace required at Wand Fight Team.

The time is completely dominated by footage from within the gym.  Training sessions, interactions between fighters and interviews are the name of the game.

Considering how busy Wanderlei is, he is generous with his time as he trains with his fighters and encourages them on a very personal level.

The fighters do not have time to talk about other things going on in their lives because fighting is the most important thing to them, and to reach the top and their full potential, they simply do not have much time for other things.

That reality hits home the hardest for a young fighter in college who starts breaking down before our very eyes.

As he talks about his scheduling difficulties between training and academic obligations, we see him struggle to prioritize his life.

His heart is being pulled in two different directions as he knows forsaking one for the other would be the toughest decision he will probably have to make in his life thus far.

For most others, their commitments to the training have already been made. 

Not only are they being pushed physically, but they are being pushed to pick up and adapt new strategies and techniques to use in their game.

Complacency is not an option.

So far, they've done a nice job staying focused and in good spirits as they continue down their chosen path and tackle the most rigorous training of their lives.
