Career
editAt the age of 15, Ray Sadeghi and his family moved to New York City. Shortly after moving to America, he found himself on his own struggling to eat. In a recent interview with Respect, Sadeghi spoke of how these early life struggles as a teenager encouraged him to be a fighter and protect people. In 2009, before becoming a bodyguard, he went to medical school in Poland and became a dentist.[2] In 2013, he became a professional bodyguard to Floyd Mayweather Jr.[citation needed]
In October 2017, he gained national attention by being outspoken about a possible Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Conor McGregor rematch.[3] Early in 2018, Sadeghi and his fellow bodyguard Greg LaRosa, who call themselves the Brixx Brothers, developed a Cannabidiol oil to help cancer patients.[4] In October 2018, in an exclusive video by TMZ, Sadeghi gained national attention by saying he would have fought the late Bruce Lee in order to protect Mayweather.[5]
He fought an exhibition boxing bout in the co-main event of Super Rizin versus Kōji "Kouzi" Tanaka. He lost the fight by technical knockout in the 3rd round.
