Kendall Grove Admits to Being Stoned During Fights
Kendall Grove is a well known stoner, the likes of Nick Diaz, Joe Rogan, and Eddie Bravo. But damn, according to him he actually fought his first six MMA fights baked. CagePotato.com has an exclusive interview with Kendall that includes Grove as saying:
See, marijuana is a touchy subject. I’m a rock star — I’ve been smoking weed since I was in the 6th grade, I can openly say that. But I’m also clean when I fight. I cut that shit out — I’m a professional. Don’t get me wrong, my first six fights, I fought high, I fought stoned. But when you get to this level, you have to take responsibility. It’s your job. I stop doing that stuff three months out. I just think they blew it way out of proportion. What did they say with Nick Diaz? “Oh, him smoking weed made his pain threshold higher—”
The rest of the interview covers topics such as his current training (which doesn’t seem all that intense), his upcoming fight against Jorge Rivera at UFC 80, what it’s like to deal with Dana White, his thoughts on the next season of The Ultimate Figther and more MMA stuff.
