Eddie Mendez Pro MMA Fight on Strikeforce December 17, 2011



Hey HOC members! One of our own, Eddie Mendez, will be fighting on Saturday,
December 17, 2011 in San Diego in his 9th professional fight. Eddie considers this
Strikeforce event the opportunity of a lifetime. He will take on Fernando Gonzalez.
Eddie has dreamt of being invited by Strikeforce to become a part of the league.
His hope is that he will give such a good show that he will be offered more fights.

 

Eddie got his start at HOC competing in gym fights known as “smokers”. He started
taking his training more seriously about 5 years ago when he realized he wanted
to dedicate himself to fighting. Eddie currently trains with Tony Ferguson, winner
of season 13 of Ultimate Fighter, and with various senseis at HOC. Eddie practices
various forms of martial arts between 3 and 4 hours a day and does an additional 1-
2 hours of fitness each day as well.
