About The Future
My Background
A hard life can crush a person. But for me, adversity has always been the battleground from which I come out stronger. The harder the challenge, the more relentlessly I’ve wanted to fight back. Each setback has fueled my determination. Today, I am a warrior, inside and outside the cage. My name is Mohamad THE FUTURE Osseili, and this is my story.
I’m a professional MMA fighter born and raised in Lebanon. Although my journey has taken me into the cage, the real fight began long before. I was raised in one of Beirut’s toughest neighborhoods called Ouzai. Despite the hardships, my parents did their best to provide a safe and loving home - but outside those doors was a warzone. On streets that knew no mercy, I was that chubby overweight kid with glasses. I had no self-confidence and did not know how to stand up for myself. For 15 years, I was bullied, beaten up, and teased. I was moved from school to school, each one more dysfunctional than the last. Teachers would hit students to discipline them, students formed gangs and the cycle of violence continued. I didn’t fit in – I always knew that. Neither did I want to. I had a very different perspective on life then people around me and yearned for a way out – I didn’t know how or when it would happen, but I was sure that one day I would climb over the bullet-ridden walls of my neighborhood and draw my own path.
In 2017, I lost my brother Mahmoud in a terrible accident. His death shook our family and devastated each one of us. While my parents and my siblings openly mourned Mahmoud, I closed up. I froze. I disconnected from the world, went heavily into drugs, and spiraled into a dark and dangerous place. Numb. Unawake. Unfeeling. It was a comfortable place to be. I could have stayed there…but I chose not to.
How Did I entered the Mixed Martial Arts ?
From Rock Bottom to Becoming a World Class Pro MMA Fighter
One night, I could feel the life slipping out of me. And honestly, I didn’t care. In fact, I welcomed death. As the walls closed up around me, I was sure there was nothing left to live for.
My bedroom was a 3x3 box. There were no windows, just walls. As I lay in bed for the second day in a row, high on drugs, I remember feeling like I was already in my coffin. Staring at the ceiling, I dosed in and out of sleep, in and out of time. It was on this night Mahmoud came to me in a dream. He looked disappointed. In my heart I could hear his voice telling me, “You’re the one who is going to get our family out. Stand up and fight.”
I heard him.
And I listened.
For 7 days, I locked myself in my room and forced the drugs out of my system. On the eighth day, I got dressed and showed up at the gym. I was overweight, unfit, and had no idea how to throw a punch. In front of me stood our community’s greatest fighters, legends in their own right. I watched in awe as they effortlessly moved, flowed, and glided into sublime takedowns.
It was intimidating, yes.
I was told to loose weight and come back later, yes.
But did I leave? No.
I stayed.
During the drills, I got hit badly, tossed around like a ragdoll. But I pushed back. When we got to the sparing, I found myself fighting back. I did not have the same strength, endurance, or skill of the guys in front of me, but I had a voracious hunger and will. I could hear my heart speak – and it was telling me, “You are strong, you got this.” Gloves on my fists, sweat running down my face, I made the decision to stick to this sport and I showed up – every single day.
Before I ever raised my hands in the cage, this decision was my absolute first win.
Years of hard work, constant struggle, and relentless training, I this overweight kid from Ouzai is now a professional MMA fighter, competing on the world stage and live streamed on UFC Fight Pass.
My Approach
Why A Coach?
I have lived with pain for so long that I do not try to run from it. Instead, I hold its hand and allow it to be my teacher. I ask the questions: Why are you here? What am I supposed to learn from this experience?
The more I was told “you can’t” the more I wanted to.
The more I was told “this is how things are done” the more I questioned them.
The tougher things became, the more determined I was to draw my own path.
I want to help you do the same thing for yourself.
I am here to guide you through the transformative journey of changing your life. I understand what it takes to face your fears head-on, I know deep you need to dig to cultivate discipline in the short term, and most importantly, how much work goes into sustaining that discipline for the long term. I will help you stay creative and nurture your belief in yourself in the face of anyone who says you can’t.
When I made the decision to pursue MMA and set my sights on becoming an international fighter, I encountered skepticism from every corner of my life. Those closest to me doubted my abilities, questioning if I could handle the physical demands, making fun of my weight, and attempting to derail my dreams. Yet, I refused to conform to their expectations – and neither should you. People may be limited, but your only limit is the sky.
What’s The Secret? It’s In The 1%
Success isn't about finding a magic formula; it's about putting in the hard work. For me, the concept of The 1% has been instrumental. When faced with daunting goals, breaking them down into manageable increments – the 1% improvements each day – makes the journey feel achievable.
I'm here to guide you in mastering the art of getting 1% better every day. Together, we'll establish a daily routine that empowers you to pursue your goals and dreams relentlessly. I'll equip you with the tools to cultivate discipline and resilience, because our journey is about progress, not perfection.
I am driven by a deep hunger to achieve my own dreams, and nothing fuels me more than helping others find their motivation to push forward. One small victory at a time, greatness is found in the consistent pursuit of improvement. Are you ready?
