The MMA Road Trip Project covered a lot of miles in 2014, and there were many memorable moments logged along the way.
The 15,000-mile adventure drove across this great country, going coast to coast and stopping at every MMA gym that could be found along the way. While many of those moments were captured in the running journals that accompanied the different legs of the project, there are still gems in the vault that have yet to see the light of day.
One of those particular magical stops occurred when “The Altima Fighter” made a pit stop at Matt Serra‘s gym in Huntington, New York, to see how the former welterweight champion spends his time in retirement. What we found was a very game Serra grooming a large collection of talented fighters and jiu-jitsu practitioners on a rainy Saturday afternoon in Long Island.
To no one’s surprise, Serra’s legendary wit was sharper than ever, and the the world-renowned grappling coach took time away from his students to provide the road trip crew a guided tour of the facility. If you want to find out what “The Terror” keeps in his gym refrigerator and learn what the only picture hanging up in his personal office is, just give the video a look.
