He married Raquel Pennington (USA), a female fighter who also plays in the UFC, and became pregnant and gave birth through a surrogate father.
When he got married, he gave up his original last name, ‘Torres,’ and changed it to his partner’s last name, ‘Pennington,’ in an interview with Yonhap News on the 9th, saying, “I am really happy.
A child is the best gift of my life.
“It’s the best motivation,” he said.
Raquel Pennington, who resumed training four months after giving birth last year, said, "It wasn't difficult to get my body back to its original shape.
It was more difficult to regain movement.
“It wasn’t the same as before, and the hardest thing was recovering my stamina,” she said.
Her spouse, Raquel, won the UFC women’s bantamweight title match against Myra Buenu Silva (Brazil) in January of this year and became the champion.
Pennington said, “ Because Raquel was preparing for the title fight, she worked out slowly.
“Preparation for this match started 10 weeks ago,” he explained, adding, “I was really happy that Raquel became the champion.
As a mixed martial arts athlete, becoming a UFC champion is everyone's dream.
“After seeing what Raquel did, I felt that I could still do it.”
There is still no ‘couple champion’ or ‘mother champion’ with childbirth experience in the UFC.
Pennington was confident, "If you work hard, you can achieve it in the end.
I believe that I will become a UFC champion.
