I caught up with one of the newest flyweights on the UFC roster, the Australian, Shannon Ross ahead of his promotional debut on home soil at UFC 284 in Perth.

Shannon went through hell just to make it to his Contender Series opportunity, but the trials didn't stop there. Shannon details exactly what went on in the lead-up to, and aftermath of his DWCS war, and much more in this in depth chat.
