Kris Moutinho, a bantamweight fighter, returns to the UFC after a challenging three-year absence that followed a Fight of the Night performance. Following a loss to Guido Cannetti, he faced a tumultuous period in his life marked by personal struggles. With the support of his partner, Moutinho has transformed, entering the octagon once again with a five-fight win streak. He acknowledges the similarities with his first stint but emphasizes his personal growth and new mindset that allows him to enjoy fighting more, ultimately improving his performance.
I went through a really bad, bad time. With relationships, with everything else. My life was just a mess. I was very close to ending this thing.
I'm a lot older, a lot at peace with myself, and where I'm at in life. And hopefully it's going to be a better show.
Caring less has actually allowed me to enjoy MMA more, resulting in better performances. I care less about the sport.
I got back to what I did when I started this stuff. I would mix in the game. I got a little too punch-crazy.
