Meatless Mouthful–Georgi Karakhanyan Fight Helped By Vegetarian Diet

“Being a vegetarian helps me a lot. I recover quicker than I did before and I also feel like I have a lot more energy than when I ate meat. As for the transition, it was very easy. Of course I missed certain things like In-N-Out Burgers or tacos, but I still get things like protein from other things. I am not a huge believer in loading protein like some guys are. If I do eat it I get in brown rice or one of my sponsors, Vega Sport, makes a really good plant-based protein paste I use. The transition really was not bad and it would be something I would encourage others to give a try sometime.”
—Georgi Karakhanyan, mixed martial artist who competes in the featherweight division who’s making his World Series of Fighting debut against UFC champion Waylon Lowe in Atlantic City, NJ this weekend.
