Learning on the job isn’t ideal in some professions, but that’s what Scottish heavyweight fighter Louie Sutherland has been doing in his young fighting career.
For a fighter, especially a mixed martial artist, it’s a common occurrence. Sutherland (4-1), who will be fighting for an opportunity to earn a PFL contract at 2023 PFL Challenger Series 3, has found early success, but knows he’s still working out the kinks in his game.
“I always want to be involved in the best fights possible, the exciting fights and so forth,” Sutherland told MMA Junkie Radio. “But I understand that this is MMA, and everyone’s going to have a gameplan. … I’m learning a bit more of how to manage fights better and be a bit more professional in that sense, rather than just going out all guns blazing, and being an absolute wrecking ball.”
