He found his passion in MMA (Mixed Martial arts) because this sport made him feel good about himself. His dad supported him in getting through with MMA training and a getting a UFC style fight with a MMA fighter his size. His whole family was against his dad for letting him go through with this. He believes in never backing down from a fight and to keep going. Garrett is a MMA instructor now and teaches kids how to fight.
