When asked how he got into MMA, Dober responded entirely differently than other fighters, according to Hindustan Times in an exclusive interview with Sony Sports. “I became intrigued by MMA after seeing the film Bloodsport. When I was five years old, I watched it. After that, I adored Dragon Ball Z and the Power Rangers.”
“These things all influenced my interest in martial arts. When I was 12 years old, I started practicing martial arts. Fighting other competitors is the only way to compete. I don’t believe I worship anything. I don’t think I’ll ever try to be like other people. Mirko Cro Cop, however, is my all-time favorite fighter,” he added.
