UFC featherweight contender Bryce Mitchell leads a life marked by simplicity and resilience.
Far from the glory of the UFC spotlight, Mitchell’s home is a modest trailer nestled on rural land – where he dedicates himself to raising livestock and cultivating his own food.
He revealed some of the details of his life in a recent conversation with Michael Bisping…
For example, he vividly recalls a severe blizzard that rendered his septic tank useless, forcing him to adapt in the most primal ways:
I have to go s**t outside of the snow. Find shit outside in the snow and cover it up in the snow, you know, like the dogs do, and now I’ll get that wood stove, keep putting it we’re putting that wood in there and cooking beans and rice on it, and just if I get snowed in, brother, I I’m gonna have a great time.
Mitchell explained further:
I live in a real small trailer. Like, my wife didn’t have a closet. You know, they like closets.
They like doing their makeup and having their cabinet and stuff.
This simplicity, however, is about to change with the arrival of his first child:
I gotta go right back into construction because I’m I’m having my first kid in 4 months.
And I’m I’m building a house for that kid and my wife and me because we don’t have enough room in the trailer that I live in.
