Geje “Gravity” Eustaquio: From Diploma to Dynamite
He may be the ONE Interim Flyweight Champion, but Geje “Gravity” Eustaquio is far from resting on his title.
Why the Filipino Fighter Is More Than Just a Striker
Gravity started out as a pure high-flying striker, but over the years he turned into a well‑rounded mixed‑martial‑artist. During his January rematch with former world champion Kairat “The Kazakh” Akhmetov, he proved that growth is his middle name.
Academia Meets Action
- Bachelor of Secondary Education – 2009
- Master of Arts in Physical Education – 2016
His family pushed him to get a college degree while he was already chasing a career in martial arts. The result? A double degree and a champion in the cage.
Education: More Than a Passport to Paychecks
“Education is about learning and growing,” Gravity says. “It’s not just a ticket to a high‑paying job; it’s a roadmap to becoming a better person.”
From 2012 to Today: The Battle of Gears
Remember his first ONE Championship bout in 2012? He compares it passionately to his current performances, noting the sheer improvement in skills and strategy.
Staying Hungry: Goals & Aspirations
Gravity’s next big challenge is taking on the reigning ONE Flyweight World Champion, Adriano “Mikinho” Moraes, at ONE: PINNACLE OF POWER in Macau on Saturday, 23 June. He calls this a rematch that will showcase his transformed fighting style.
His mission? Grab the unified ONE Flyweight World Title and eventually step into a coaching role, sharing his knowledge with the next generation.
Final Thought
Gravity ends with a spirited quote: “As long as I’m breathing, I’ll keep learning and improving. A wise man once said that dreaming only stops when you stop breathing.”
