Carlos Ortiz from MMA Fight Coverage speaks with the # 7 ranked Bellator MMA Light Heavyweight Tyree Fortune ahead if his fight against the # 6 ranked Light Heavyweight holding the identical fight record of 5-0 Grant Neal taking place Friday, May 21, at Bellator 259: Cyborg vs. Smith 2 airing on SHOWTIME from Mohegan Sun Arena Uncasville, CT. 

Tyree Fortune has an undefeated record after 5 professional fights heading into his 3rd Bellator MMA event.  The twin brother to fellow Bellator MMA Heavyweight fighter Tyrell Fortune is based out of Portland Oregon at American Top Team. Tyree remains where the two were born while Tyrell lives in Tempe Az and trains out of Arizona Combat Sports. 

The included audio enters into some technical difficulties toward the end. Here are some of the things that were said below. For the entire interview please take a listen.

“What I know about Grant is he will come forward and he is ready to fight.”

“My strategy is to keep pace with him and if I see a finish, go for it. “

Will we being seeing Tyree here with his brother in the Phoenix area: “I’m probably going to start cross training with them. Just to get the experience because I have never trained anywhere else. It will be a great turning point in my career. I need to have experiences, that’s how you grow as a person as an athlete.” According to Tyree’s Facebook Page he is Fighter/Coach out of American Top Team PDX / Bellator MMA Coach at Peninsula Wrestling Club.

“I would like to fight my way to the title but after the tournament if somebody wants to fight for the title that’s just fine too. I want to earn it. I don’t want it gifted to me.”

Josh Emmett quotes: "I cannot overlook Kattar he is a dangerous test. He's right in front of  me so  once I do get my hand raised and do win I'm looking to fight for the title next." 

Even though Josh comes from a wrestling background, "I have good boxing too. I have been boxing for a long time. Before I got into the UFC I was going to try to go pro as a boxer."


"I think my stand-up is great. I know my wrestling is great, I know my ground game is great. I just have to show up and be the best version of myself that night."
