With RIZIN set to have its biggest event of the summer & many fans from around the world wanting to dream about seeing a show live & in-person — let alone wanting to fight for them — this special episode of Focus Fights Audio is spotlighting both of those instances.

First off, this episode begins with a tribute to the victims of the flooding disaster in Kerr County, Texas (a 5 hour drive from where our host is from) as well as the memories of Canadian MMA Vet Strahinja Gavrilovic & his wife, Edith Dumas.

Then, after formal intros & the rundown, our host “Da Chillmeister” J. Christian Gary speaks with RIZIN.TV Poster Contest winner Sarah-Michelle Auswitz on her dreams of becoming the 4th fighter from her native Germany to compete in RIZIN in addition to her inspiring story of overcoming autism, asthma & bullying.

After that, Chris puts over his 3 things talking about Claressa Shields’ desire to waste $15 Million on a fight with Laila Ali, the downfall of ONE Championship & why Chatri Sityodtong isn’t doing much but containing his talent & an update on WCW Legend Buff Bagwell.

And finally, Chris speaks to BRAVE Combat Federation’s representative in the 2025 RIZIN Flyweight Grand Prix, José “Shorty” Torres who talked about how his rough upbringing in Chicago led him to anime fandom, fight success & living out his dreams.
