Jacob "Stitch" Duran is the actual living embodiment of the title of his book, "From the Fields to the Garden." Having lived a life that started out as being a Mexican American working in the field's under the relentlessly hot California sun, to serving his country in the United States Air force, then off to becoming a boxing/kickboxing club owner/trainer/promoter until he finally settled into the position most of us know him for, as Stitch. The incomparably educated man that lives in the world of patching up the best fighters on the planet in less than 50 seconds, ensuring that they always have a chance to keep fighting, that they always have one more round. 

Stitch is not just a cut man with a passport book that contains more stamps than most world leaders, by being the best cut man in the world he has been asked not only by the best boxers, kick boxers and MMA stars in the world to help them in their fights, he has been sought after by Hollywood and people such as Sylvester Stallone to play himself, Stitch in award winning films. Currently Stitch is doing everything he can to educate other cut men and women in the game, ensuring what should be considered a sacred skill set that he has developed, cultivated and perfected for over thirty years by subjecting himself to all the various blood types and human fluids that had to get on his hands so that others would not make mistakes that will not only damage a fighters performance but could very well damage their health and longevity in the sport and in life.

Stitch has most recently been in the news not as a guy that has wrapped the hands and been in the corner of the likes of Wladimir Klitschko, Jon Jones and every other fighter you've ever heard of, as of recently Jacob has been in front of camera's as the one man that used his history and experiences as an honest hard working man from the César Chávez era that was forced to stand up to the juggernaut company of mixed martial arts, The UFC. Asking the company for fair treatment of all of it's people after what many viewed as a greedy move made by the UFC in a contract deal that cost all of it's fighters financial loses while providing the company with large financial gains. This decision to voice his opinion cost him his employment with the company in a very public scene that has since left his phone ringing with words of kindness and support from friends he has made both inside the ring and outside of it, as well as opened up his schedule to be the worlds most sought after professional cut man. 

Stitch is a literal relic of history, with stories that date back from great boxers, bloody battles and friendships that were made and forged in 50 second increments. From his time he spent in a flak jacket with soldiers in Afghanistan to the time he had to explain to Sylvester Stallone that the famous cut me scene in Rocky is inaccurate, all the way to genuine father like kindness he shows to everyone he meets, Stitch's stories don't only need to be heard. They need to be sought out and passed on.
