"It's because I feel a connection to it. Covid was the catalyst that got me into surfing, foiling, and finally MMA.
"I know many people who do it. It's a really fascinating connection between those who do jiu jitsu and surfers.
Zuckerberg said that he regrets choosing to train in fencing instead of wrestling after falling in love MMA.
He stated that the question was not how I got into it but how did it get me here.
"From the first session I did, like five minutes into -- where has this been all my life?"
"My mum forced me to participate in three varsity sports, and my life took an unfortunate turn when I decided to compete in fencing instead of high school wrestling.
"I don't know what it is, but there's something primal about it.
"Since then, I've just introduced some of my friends to it -- they train together and we like, wrestle together and it has a certain intensity that I like."
