Louis Cosce is from Humboldt County. It represents the American side of the octagonal ring.
A sports father from Humboldt County had raised Cosce and his brother. His father introduced them to wrestling and always wanted them to start a professional career in the sport. Additionally, Cosce’s father wanted his son to become a police officer, while some family members suggested he become a model.
Nevertheless, Brother Cosce had always wanted to become a fighter. So they imitated “Dragonball Z” characters when they were kids, practicing whenever they had time in a light but effective way.
Louis has said about his father: “He used to make us fight a lot when we were kids. He would bring his friends and their kids over, and we’d (expletive).”
Due to their parents’ circumstances, Louis and Orion moved often when they were children. As a result, the brothers sometimes separated. However, despite their physical separation, they never ceased to maintain their intense bond.
Louis often mentioned that he and his brother grew up in a small town near a mountain range. They often observed many neighbors losing their lives to drug addiction. Even in their extended family, it was not easy to see such things. However, they continually turned into physical training.
Louis said, as quoted in the MMA enthusiast: “Having parents who weren’t overdoing it – like, getting involved in drugs and all that, it makes you grow up a lot faster. Realism always plays out instead of being a fantasy. It comes into play as a little kid, so you have to grow up fast. It’s a harsh fact of life where I’m from. I think it’s everywhere too.”
