"I'm one of those fighters that doesn't want to fight once a year and just enjoy the UFC spotlight. I want to get in there and keep going, keep climbing the ladder."
Jimmie is a relentless worker in the gym. Even after a hard fight, he's already back in the gym, training kids, adults and himself.
"I don't like taking time off. I like getting right back in there. Stitches, bumps, bruises, it doesn't matter. I want to get back into training. You hurt one limb, you got three other limbs that you can work on."
Jimmie trains and teaches at Tiger Schulmann's MMA in Manhattan, NYC. He understands the importance of hard work, fitness and nutrition. That's why he turned to NutraBio for his supplements.
