KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Tanner Boser admits his drop to light heavyweight was easier than he expected and he credits one food in particular for the smooth transition.
“My main diet was deer meat,” Boser told MMA Junkie on Wednesday at UFC on ESPN 44 media day. “It’s worked perfectly. I’m my own nutritionist. … I just had it, so I ate it. I made it differently.”
Boser (20-9-1 MMA, 4-4 UFC) has competed eight times in the UFC at heavyweight, though often tipped the scales at the lower end of the weight classes’ boundaries. Recently, Boser shared a picture of himself post-training where he showed off a ripped physique.
