<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The remarkable story of mixed martial artist Joe Pyfer hit the screens of DailyWire+ members on Friday, diving into the rise of one of the most daunting fighters in UFC history. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Journey to the UFC” follows the man who rose from a harrowing past and confronts shattering obstacles in his quest to fight in the UFC. In the DailyWire+ documentary, people will watch how Pyfer was guided by mentors who saw his potential as Pyfer faces his opponents, along with the personal demons and life-changing setbacks that came along the way. </span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Pyfer, whose longtime dream was to make it into the UFC, got his chance after making his way onto “Dana White’s Contender Series” in 2020, but he lost his fight against Dustin Stoltzfus in a technical knockout after he broke his elbow. Two years later, Pyfer got another shot at the “Contender Series” and the UFC. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Going into the second one, I had to battle depression. I would say that was my last stint of being a victim because I had struggled with a little bit of suicide problems, things like that. And I think I just was unappreciative of the journey that I was on,” Pyfer said in an interview with Morning Wire. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“And I think that&#8217;s where you can become a victim. You can start to feel sorry for yourself. Things like that,” he added. “I couldn&#8217;t see the light at the end of the tunnel. They told me when I first broke my elbow that I was done fighting. I&#8217;d never fight again, because if I throw a punch, the impact could literally dislocate my elbow.” </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In his journey, Pyfer dealt with homelessness, a toxic relationship with his father, and numerous injuries. But he never gave up on his UFC dream. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I’ve taken a lot of pain, I’ve had a lot of hurt, I’ve had a lot of depression, I’ve taken a lot of abuse, I’ve had a lot of doubts,” Pyfer says in the documentary. “But one thing has always stood true and that is I’m going to show that I’m somebody that never gave up.” </span></p>
