Calvin Kattar received a letterman jacket for completing 50 clean tests under the UFC’s Anti-Doping Program, recognizing his dedication to maintaining a clean sport over eight years. Despite the honor, Kattar feels this commitment should be expected among fighters. He emphasizes that focusing on training and preparation for fights is more important than seeking any performance-enhancing advantages. Even while facing a losing streak, Kattar maintains that his mindset before fights has remained consistent throughout his career, indicating a strong mental resilience amidst challenges.
“Of course [I'm] proud but at the same time, I don't really like getting congratulated for sh*t I feel like you should do already.
“In my mind, you should be doing that anyway. But apparently it's not the norm.
“The fight game's tough enough and then to jump through all these hoops to take certain things that are going to give you a slight advantage.
“I didn't really change much in my mindset. That might sound crazy to some people given coming off some losses.
