from Wikipedia:

“Amir Sadollah was born in Brooklyn, New York but raised in Richmond, Virginia. Following his graduation from J.R. Tucker High School he attended Jay Sargeant Reynolds Community College. Amir began mixed martial arts as a way to stay in shape. He began to take the sport more seriously after working as a surgical technician at VCU Healthsystems and seeing similarities in the personalities of surgeons and fighters. Without having fought in an official MMA match, Amir tried out for The Ultimate Fighter. He impressed Dana White and producers enough to earn a trip to Las Vegas, Nevada to compete on the show. Amir went on to win the tournament and the title of the Ultimate Fighter. He is currently a member of Team Combat.”
