Pauga, who will be competing in the TUF 30 finale on Saturday, is teammates with the top heavyweight contender. The 34-year-old revealed that one of the pastimes he enjoys with Blaydes is playing against each other in Madden. During an interview with Sportskeeda MMA's James Lynch, Pauga was asked who the better player was between Blaydes and himself. 'The Ripper' admitted: "Curtis is a better player, but I'm up in the series right now. I won the last game that we played and I will never let him forget that." Catch our exclusive interview with Zac Pauga below: The UFC aspirant also said that he considers himself an avid gamer. However, he added that he doesn't have enough time to play these days as he has to juggle work with fighting and parenting. "I would qualify myself as a gamer," Pauga said. "I like playing, but I haven't played in a while because of the kids. On the road, me and Curtis played Madden and I was a big Call of Duty guy before then. I'm hoping to go back to being able to play again, but just hasn't been on the cards for fighting in the regional scene – working and fighting and having been a dad at the same time." It s everything - Zac Pauga on learning from teammates Curtis Blaydes and Alistair Overeem Zac Pauga trains out of the Elevation Fight Team in Denver, Colorado along with high-level heavyweights Curtis Blaydes and Alistair Overeem. In an interview with UFC.com, Pauga claimed that being part of a top-notch MMA team gives him an edge over his fellow newcomers. Talking about his experience, Pauga said: "You know, it’s everything. I’ve been here before. I’ve been to the APEX six times. I’ve seen fights in there. I’ve sparred with Curtis Blaydes, sparred with Alistair Overeem, getting them ready for fights. No one else here has that kind of experience."
