I had always thought Firas owned the gym.

[@esudo]

Ronda should go to tristar.

[@treroney4720]

esudo I've said that since the Betche fight

[@TheMegaPunters]

Excellent history piece guys

[@omegaboostZ]

I remember training there in my youth when I was 16 yo (2003 I think). The word mma didn't even exist back then and the class were called Vale Tudo (anything goes). GSP wasn't even known and David Loiseau was the rising star back then. You had guys like Steve & Stephane Vigneault, Donald Ouimet, Ivan Menjivar and so on. Amazing to see who the mma world evolved so rapidly and became what it is today.

I miss Tristar.. every time you step in that gym you felt like you were in a different world really amazing people

[@ivanyost6395]

I learned alot from watching this on the history of Tristar and there were stories I had no idea about. Tremendous work Fight Network I really hope you continue doing this for MMA because you tell stories with respect.

No hate or disrespect for Anatomy of Fighter but this documentary is better than what AOF produces.
