how do i become a UFC fighter?

well first things first...NEVER join an MMA class...as off as that sounds if you are VERY serious take a jiu jitsu class and a kickboxing class...ive been to an MMA class to see what you do and they teach you just setups but never teach you how to get out of anything. Dont do anything stupid such as fighting random people to test yourself cuz thats just gonna get you in trouble..go early to your classes and spar

Don't keep your eyes set on the UFC. By the time you are 18, Strikeforce may be the most recognized league.

But start taking BJJ and either Muay Thai or Boxing. I'd also take Judo.

After about a year, get into some competitions for the arts that you have chosen and try to master your arts.

you need to take jiu jitsu classes of course and then start doing mma fights at community centers and rec centers. Once you get good you can do tournaments and fights. Try to get into a lower ranked fighting leagues and once you win the championship in that you will get offers for better leagues and eventually the UFC might give you an offer

you sound very motivated. Try joining your school wreslting team, all the most well known fighters were college wrestlers and highschool wrestlers. When you become like a state champion people start noticng you, maybe some UFC fighter will notice or someone in contact with them.

Tae Kwon Do isn't very effective in MMA, but if you become a good boxer, wrestler, and BJJ guy, you will be very good. Don't keep your eyes on the UFC. UFC is to MMA as NFL is to football.

i don't think you join they find you when you get big in fighting competitions so keep training and you'll make it one day i could be wrong though

lol @ strikeforce being the most recognized league
