Juan Archuleta is the new Bellator World Champion for the Bantamweight Division

Juan “The Spaniard” Archuleta is a mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter with a winning personality and winning record to match (24 wins, 2 losses as a pro). You might expect him to be at least somewhat cold hearted and intimidating, after all MMA is a brutal sport. Juan’s big heart is reflected in his willingness to share credit, his desire to win for the sake of others, and the grace and respect he shows competitors.

Here is a great example, from an interview done just before the championship fight. After describing the competitive advantage of using NanoVi, the interviewer asked about keeping NanoVi a secret from his opponents. In classic Juan Archuleta style this is how it went:

I put it on my social media because I am the type of person when something has healed me or something has benefited me I want the world to know.

Two outstanding athletes made it a great championship match

Juan’s opponent in the title match was Patchy “No Love” Mix. He was undefeated and had never needed more than three rounds to polish off his opponents. Meeting Juan in the ring was a different story. Patchy came into the fight with an advantage being taller and having a longer reach. This meant he could possibly strike Juan down more easily. Juan ended up landing more strikes in a flurry of punches that lasted throughout the fight. Patchy was not able to shut him down early, or to muster the strength and fortitude for the long haul. The fight went 5 rounds. It required skill, energy, endurance, mental acuity, and strength of character. Juan Archuleta had it all. And his win by unanimous decision to confirms it. Patchy Mix was a strong opponent, no doubt the MMA world will see more of him. Defeating Patchy is a huge accomplishment for Juan and we can’t congratulate and applaud him enough. And we thank both men for a great fight.

What role did NanoVi play?

According to Juan Archuleta, NanoVi had a real impact on his training and fight preparation. He was gracious enough to talk about it the day before he had to weigh in for the fight. Here is a clip of Juan talking about NanoVi, it will also give you a glimpse of his winning personality.

[showhide type=“transcript2″ more_text=“See Transcript“ less_text=“Hide Transcript“ hidden=“yes“]Oh, absolutely, there’s no doubt! being able to be repaired and healed without my body overworking overcompensating during a dramatic weight cut like this is something that’s very beneficial. I’m waking up wanting to train. I’m going to my next level and my next workout, wanting to train instead of dragging butt saying, ugh, I gotta train again to skim this weight off. Just feeling clouded. Especially around this time. I don’t know if you could feel my vibe but I’m very happy I’m very enthused. Usually, It feels like a heavy cloud is over me. So right now I’m just like sunshine blue skies here we are ready to win the world title. My body’s healed it’s rested and it’s ready to go you know?

The mental challenges of MMA are at least as big as the physical side of the contest. Fighters have a lot riding on each fight. To perform their best, they must find just the right balance between stress and calm. Like other of top competitors, being energized and at the same time clear is the sweet spot for Juan. He certainly appreciates how NanoVi helps him find this balance, we’ll let him describe it:

[showhide type=“transcript3″ more_text=“See Transcript“ less_text=“Hide Transcript“ hidden=“yes“]During fight week let’s say I used it 2 weeks before my fight and the last week is the height of before I started coming down to my peak week, right? So I used it that Friday when I was going into spar because I was like OK let me go, do some recovery and see how I feel. And so I used it before my sparring. Everything was just locked and loaded. I also use a thing called Nu Calm for meditation. I used the NanoVi 1st and then it relaxed my body to go into meditation. When I went in and did my last hard training, it was 5 rounds of a real simulated fight where I had five different opponents each round. So they were on me like boom, boom, boom. I was able to keep up with it, you know, and mentally I was aware my body rejuvenated after each round, just like systematically like boom ready to go, boom ready to go, so it was awesome.

Will we see more of NanoVi in MMA?

NanoVi is gaining attention in the of MMA world. The sport is so mentally and physically challenging that bouncing back faster translates into a competitive advantage. Two current Bellator World Champions already have the NanoVi advantage. Heavyweight World Champion Ryan Bader has been using NanoVi at his recovery center, Cerulean Human Health Performance in Scottsdale. The new Bantamweight Bellator World Champion, Juan Archuleta, was lucky enough to have a NanoVi Exo with him to use during quarantine and after the fight. Like Ryan, Juan was introduced to NanoVi by his performance center, in this case O2 HealthLab in Newport Beach.

Heavyweight and Bantamweight are two of Bellator’s 7 divisions so there is still a way to go before NanoVi becomes “the standard device of Bellator Champions”. All MMA fighters have a big need for repair and regeneration, so we expect to see a lot more reliance on NanoVi in the sport.
