Armando moved from Albania to Italy with his family as three year old. He grew up there and speaks fluent Italian, and learned to love many different languages. A passion for languages. He speaks Italian, French, Albanian, and English.

His other passion is Martial Arts. So instead of pursuing soccer like all the other kids in Italy, he practiced jujitsu in his early teens. After taking a break and coming back to it after 16, he realized he wanted to learn about all kinds of fighting techniques.

He went to learn various martial arts and became an amateur MMA fighter. He knew that he could not get far with this in Italy and decided to take the chance and moved to New York, USA. He lives in the Bronx, NY and trains at areantrainingcenterny.

We talk about his life in Italy, his nutrition and training regimen, his disciple, family and culture, and shows us the true strength it takes to be a fighter.

He steps out for the first time as a PRO Fighter with his fight on Saturday March 27th 2021 in Tampa Florida. He and 3 other Albanian fighters will be represented that day and it is very special.

The fight will be available on PPV https://shoptritonfights.com/products/triton-fights-18-ppv?variant=33485468041302
