Bryce Mitchell also thanked Tucker Carlson for the beautiful family he is today.
Mitchell is a very interesting character in several ways. The UFC featherweight is a flat country native who loves farming and lives a secluded life on a ranch in Arkansas. Mitchell is married to Erin Handlow and they had a son together earlier this year. “Bad Nasty” names his son Tucker after Carlson, who helped him connect with Handlow.
Mitchell has conducted multiple interviews with Carlson over the years, but one particular interview in 2022 went viral due to the “thug”‘s outlandish theories and views about the government. Mitchell revealed that Handlow messaged him on Instagram after seeing the interview, and the two immediately bonded.
“My wife and I met because I interviewed Tucker Carlson, so we named him Tucker,” Mitchell recently told Daniel Cormier. “Brother, this article had millions of views…I not only liked this interview, but if it hadn’t been for this, brother, if it hadn’t been for this interview, I wouldn’t have had kids or a wife. Sho. I’m a very unique character… She can cook, clean, and do everything. She’s 10 out of 10. And I can’t even begin to describe how perfect this woman is. And if I hadn’t joined Tucker Carlson, we would never have met. , at that point in my life, I was praying for my wife, and I was really just saying, “God, please give me a wife.” If I don’t, I’ll be in trouble. ‘… Then she messaged me on Instagram and said, ‘I saw you on Tucker Carlson,’ and we started a conversation. ”
Mitchell was undefeated in the first 15 fights of his career through 2022, but was 2-2 in his next four fights, suffering stoppages against current featherweight champion Ilya Topria and Josh Emmett. . Mitchell most recently returned to the win column with a third-round knockout of Kron Gracie at UFC 310 earlier this month.
