Jeg mødte Mark O. Madsen til OL i Rio i 2016. En flink mand, som senere løb med det olympiske sølv i brydning.
Sidste år så jeg ham i MMA-buret i Nykøbing Falster, hvor han effektivt og temmelig brutalt gjorde det af med en svensk fighter.
Hvordan forklarer Mark selv kontrasten mellem kærlig familiefar og sej MMA-kæmper.
Hvis der da er en kontrast.
Jeg har mødt ham i Maribo, hvor han har sit Olympian Gym. Han bor med familien i Nykøbing Falster, og elsker Sydhavsøerne, som han nok kun forlader, hvis MMA-satsningen kræver det.
Hvorfor blev det brydningen, og hvorfor sprang han fra en gloværdig karriere med endnu et OL i kikkerten? Hvordan var det, at modtage sølvmedaljen af Kronprins Frederik?
Hvorfor blev det MMA? Hvad betyder pengene? Hvorfor skulle han møde Patrick Nielsen? Kan han blive verdens bedste, og hvordan er det at træde ind i buret, hvor øretæverne lurer?
Hver kamp kan blive den sidste, siger han selv om sportsgrenen, som han også kalder akkordarbejde.
Hør om hans – og faktisk hele familiens vilde satsning på den voldsomme sportsgren.
Når Mark går ind i buret, så kæmper han nemlig også for sin kone og sine to børn.
