Chris Lytle For Rich Clementi , pain is a part of everyday life. After 14 years as a pro fighter, his spine is in bad shape, his lumbar vertebrae “pretty much shot.” Bending over at the waist is difficult bordering on impossible some days. He wakes up each morning knowing that the hurt will only continue. “The pain is pretty bad, to be honest,” the 37-year-old Clementi told MMAjunkie.
