With the America 250 just around the corner, our nation’s big day celebration is sure to be a big day.
The festivities will vary greatly, but one of the most talked about events is the UFC Freedom 250 card taking place Sunday on the White House lawn.

PK Press Club’ Sean Hannity sat down with UFC star Bo Nickal on his show “Hang Out with Sean Hannity” to discuss the day, as well as his rocket to stardom and a host of other topics.
One topic the two particularly touched on was the growing epidemic of “lost boys” plaguing America’s youth and how it appears to be leading down a destructive path for many young men across the country.

Hannity asked Nickal directly what his advice would be to young men who desperately need role models, and the young fighter provided some surprisingly grounded words of wisdom.
“They’re trying to fill a void that won’t be filled with the things they want,” Nickal said. “The drinking, the drugs, the sex, the money, the fame…and it’s going to continue to be empty.”
When asked what his solution would be, Nickal turned to his faith.

“Look at your faith, look at the community. Look at the family…those are the kinds of things that have real value.”
Nickal lamented the “selfish attitude” that seems to have permeated the younger generation of American men, saying that it may feel good to do things for yourself “in the moment,” but it can destroy you in the long run.
By prioritizing your faith and relationships, Nickal says you’ll feel energized, citing John 10:10 from the Bible.
“The thief comes to steal, kill and destroy. I come to bring you life so that you can live it to the fullest.”
This is all very convincing coming from a young man (only 30) who is right in the middle of the very generation he is trying to guide out of obscurity.

When Hannity, clearly impressed by his words, suggested that Nickal be a mentor to younger men, the UFC star didn’t hesitate.
“I’m certainly passionate about helping young men,” Nickal said. “I like talking to them about life.”
