Also a native of Oregon, the surging Primus remains unbeaten after five consecutive wins to begin his Bellator MMA career. A tan sólo 31, Primus has been committed to honing his craft since he was 13, going as far as to sell his landscaping business to keep his hopes of someday becoming a champion alive.
