NEW ORLEANS – When Jonathan Brookins enters the
cage on the main card of Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 25 event, he’ll have
lost about 10 pounds since he claimed tournament victory on “The
Ultimate Fighter 12.”
But Brookins – who admits at 26 years old, he’s still learning about
both MMA and life – says he’s gained something much more important:
perspective.
“I got out and I went saw everything from one area of the country all
the way to the West Coast,” Brookins told MMAjunkie.com. “By the time I got there, I figured out everything
I wanted was already back in Florida.”
