Episode Description

He’d been shot four times. In this raw conversation, MMA fighter and coach Alton “Dreadz” Prince walks us through the moment everything changed at the Gaslight, the shock of watching the video afterward, and the quieter aftermath: nerve pain, PTSD in crowds, and getting back to his kids. Then comes the part you don’t expect—six weeks later, he’s back fighting, chasing history in bare-knuckle MMA, driven by faith and a refusal to be defined by what happened to him.
