“What this means is it helps me travel, take care of gym fees, be able to buy food or anything. Guys, I'm ready, I'm working, I'm going to school. I'm dedicating at least 65+ hours a week to these things and I want to make that happen. I want to go very far in the UFC and I can't do it without you”, said Alpar.

Financial independence for MMA fighters is, in most cases, not easy to achieve. In fact, some Ultimate athletes have complained about their scholarships and others have even chosen to make the transition to boxing, looking for super fights in the sport.

“If you want to donate even 5 or 10 dollars, anything is very helpful so I can focus on training and be able to win my next fight. I want to thank everyone again for the donations that have already been made. I would like to reach a goal of 1000 dollars by July 1st. Let's make this happen, guys. I need your help”, he concluded.
