It has been a long seven months for Jordan Williams. After falling short in his second opportunity on Dana White’s Contender Series, the Nor-Cal Fighting Alliance rep has run into difficulties securing fights—a reality that has kept him on the sidelines since July. Now, the COVID-19 pandemic has postponed his scheduled return at Legacy Fighting Alliance 84 on March 20.
“It’s been a long time since I fought,” Williams said. “I need to get back in the cage. Now this [expletive] virus thing is getting in the way. Life is funny, man, and it’ll throw a bunch of variables at you. It was a rollercoaster [the last seven months]. [I was] a little bit upset [after my loss on DWCS], but we’re past that now.”
In this exclusive interview with Sherdog.com, the 29-year-old touched on his split decision defeat to Ramazan Kuramagomedov on Dana White’s Contender Series, credited his day job as a metal worker with keeping his finances afloat and discussed his use of marijuana as a way to combat his Type 1 diabetes.
