“I spend more time in San Diego right now because I go to the gym there, and all of the guys at the gym aren’t just fighters and coaches, they’re like a family to me. I’m happy to keep coming back to the gym every day, day-in, day-out and keep grinding with them, because I know I have a family here.”
Saragih’s next UFC test will see him welcome undefeated South Korean knockout artist JooSang Yoo to the UFC. The 8-0 prospect, who recently featured in Dana White’s Lookin’ For A Fight, earned his spot with an impressive first-round knockout victory for ZFN, the South Korean fight promotion headed up by “The Korean Zombie” Chan Sung Jung.

Saragih knows he’s in for a tough test on Saturday night in Newark, but he said he’ll arrive on fight night armed with better preparation, from a better team.
“I believe if a fighter gets signed with the UFC, that fighter must be good and have some specific skills,” he said.
