Meanwhile, Antonio Trocoli turned heads at the WSOP Colossus, a 2025 World Series of Poker event. Originally an Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) fighter with a record of 12-5-0, Trocoli proved his versatility by nailing a sixth-place finish in the Colossus. This remarkable performance earned him a cool $122,360 from a $500 buy-in. Despite his MMA successes, Trocoli revealed that he has amassed more funds from poker than his battles in the octagon. During the tournament, he enjoyed the support of his partner, UFC fighter Mackenzie Dern, and poker star Felipe Ramos[1].
