Chris Lytle and the boys are back with another of their "old school" interviews as they interview America Top Team's Alex Davis.
You want to talk about a guy who has seen it all in the world of MMA? Alex Davis was there at the inception of the now prolific American Top Team and there are few roles Davis has not filled - Translator, Manager, Trainer and life-coach are just a few of the hats he wears.
Alex also takes us back to Brazil and the days before the UFC as we talk Marco Ruas, Rickson Gracie and much much more.
