Interview with Lawrence Phillips below
D2 Wrestling standout Lawrence Phillips (7-0 AM) talks about signing a six-fight contract with ONE Championship. Lawrence also spoke about making the transition from wrestling to MMA, who some of his favorite fighters are and how this came together signing with ONE Championship.
“It all started with (agent) Karl Reed, telling me that I should get with GAMMA World Championship. He wanted me to get more experience during my amateur career, he felt like it would be a good experience for me. I went out there, did really well, I won it. And I ended up getting contacted by ONE. I was very surprised. I was planning on going pro, after winning that anyway. I was figuring I would have to do some regional heavyweight pro-matches around here. But I got blessed.”
