Aldric Cassata, nicknamed “Doctore”, is a former professional MMA fighter from Nice, France. According to Tapology, his pro record stands at 10 wins, 6 losses and 1 no contest. He has been a Brazilian jiu jitsu black belt since 2013 and also holds a black belt in karate.
Today he is head coach at Boxing Squad, a gym in Nice, and an analyst for Jab Life, the French language outlet he has cohosted with journalist Alexandre Herbinet since it launched in April 2025.
On Jab Life, Cassata handles the technical side of the news shows and the live streams built around MMA events. He is the central figure of Jab Culture, a format shot in Nice. Some Jab Life streams are broadcast straight from Boxing Squad, so you are watching from inside a working gym.
On Instagram he shares his day to day as a coach, sessions at Boxing Squad and behind the scenes moments from shoots with Herbinet. You see how he works with his fighters and how a Jab Life show comes together, from the gym floor to the set.
Cassata talks about MMA as someone who fought professionally and still prepares fighters every week. His two black belts, in BJJ and karate, let him explain grappling exchanges as well as range and footwork on the feet.
His read complements Herbinet's on Jab Life: one covers the news and context, the other details what is happening technically in the cage. If you train MMA or jiu jitsu yourself, you will recognize situations from your own sessions in his explanations, along with the adjustments a coach makes between rounds and the way a game plan gets built.
This is for people who train and for fans who want to understand fighters' technical choices, as long as they follow French. Start with an episode of Jab Culture shot in Nice to get a feel for how he explains things. Then watch the Jab Life live streams from Boxing Squad on big event nights, and follow his Instagram for the gym side. If you train, take the situations he describes to your next session.
