My Take
Mike Dolce fascinates me as a study in reinvention. A former mixed martial artist out of New Jersey, he turned the punishing lessons of weight-cutting into a craft that helped UFC stars like Ronda Rousey and Johny Hendricks make weight and win. Being named World MMA Trainer of the Year four years running is no fluke, it is mastery of a thankless, behind-the-scenes discipline. What I find admirable is how he converted his own fighting hardship into a system that elevates others, then built books and a nutrition brand around it. I always root for the people who shine brightest in the supporting role.
