Alberto Crane was the first American to earn a BJJ black belt from Gracie Barra. He fought in the UFC. Won world championships. Built Legacy Jiu-Jitsu into a 25-year institution.

Then came the MS diagnosis.

Most people would have stopped. Alberto went on a world tour.

In this episode, we talk about what getting punched in the face teaches you about leadership, why 3 years of losing made Alberto unstoppable, the power of the mantra "I believe in my technique," and why your rough edges are features, not bugs.

His new book "All In: Lessons On and Off the Mat" is out now.
