🎙️ Episode 154 – Max “Pain” Griffin

Title: Max “Pain” Griffin – Fight Game, Mindset & Cannabis Culture | Good PizzZa Podcast Ep.154

This week, JP sits down with Max “Pain” Griffin — a true warrior in the octagon and a voice for craft culture beyond the ring. Max competes in the welterweight division of the UFC, training out of Sacramento and holding a professional record of 20 wins and 12 losses.  

Born November 29, 1985 and fighting under the nickname “Pain,” Griffin brings discipline, sacrifice, and heart to everything he does. He’s been studying martial arts from a young age, earned black belts, and made his way through the ranks to become a mainstay in the UFC.  

In this episode, we talk about the grind behind the fight game — the training, the mindset, the injuries, the comebacks — and how all of that intersects with the cannabis culture you know and love. Whether you’re here for the flowers or the flow, this conversation spans fight camps, recovery, mindset hacks, and living at the margins until you break through.
