Gorimbo's life is one of overcoming the odds. Before he was 15, he had lost both his parents, a harrowing loss that forced him to start digging for Marange diamonds illegally.

He was arrested and even had a near-death experience from that ordeal, but it made the 32-year-old mentally stronger. The UFC welterweight beat Takashi Sato for his first win in May. He revealed plans to sell his fight kits to help fund the building of a water well in his village in Zimbabwe.
