Interview with Brandon Lewis below

Brandon Lewis (6-2) discusses his lightweight fight against Justin Weztell (8-2) at United Fight League 3 on Aug. 12. Brandon also spoke about his loss on DWCS last year, layoff going into this fight and leaving his day job so he can focus on MMA.

“That’s one thing that I’ve changed majorly. As a fighter, unless you’re in a good ranking spot, you’re working a job. I just recently stopped working full time, I’ll do little gigs here and there. But these last two weeks I’m not accepting anything. I’ve moved out of my house. My girlfriend and I are living in our van.”
