When Gilbert Melendez enrolled at San Francisco State, he couldn’t decide what he wanted to do more: wrestle or party. Then he met Jake Shields, who became both a partner in crime and his mentor in mixed martial arts.
In Part 2 of this FIGHT! Life series, Melendez takes us through his humble beginnings, and even offers some ideas about what he’ll do when the time comes to hang up the gloves.
