    An academic with an education in Philosophy and Rhetoric. A professional MMA fighter. A lecturer and university professor. A Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt. A professional health and fitness mentor. Is there anything that Francisco hasn't done? Aside from being the first person in MMA to throw me my first beating (I was lucky enough to be a sparring partner early on), Francisco's become a great friend and an endless well of knowledge, insight, and camaraderie. As expected, this talk reflected all of those things and more!
