Kris Gratalo “got the itch” – Talks comeback fight at Maverick MMA 26 against AT McCowin

Interview with Kris Gratalo below

Kris Gratalo (4-3) discusses his middleweight fight against AT McCowin (6-4) at Maverick MMA 26 on Dec. 2. Kris also spoke about coaching kids wrestling, his training camp for this fight and why he’s decided to return to action for the first time since November 2019.

“After my last fight I took some time to contemplate where I’m headed. As time went on COVID happened, everything shut down. It was hard for me to get to training since I live two hours from the gym. (Also) I had a bit of an existing injury, I talked to my chiropractor, (he said) really take into consideration your future. Honestly, I thought I was done. And then I just kind of got back into the scene, grappling and wrestling matches. Honestly the injury I had, hasn’t really bothered me at all. I got the itch man; I want to fight.”
