Brad Tavares loves ketchup.
The UFC middleweight mainstay enjoys the simple foods in life, like eggs, rice and Kraft Dinner. But if he doesn’t have a healthy helping of ketchup, no thanks.
“Bro, eggs and rice have to have ketchup,” Tavares said MMA junkie. “That, like eggs and rice, is probably my favorite all-around meal. And if I don’t have ketchup, I can’t eat it. Like, I wish I made eggs and rice for breakfast and I looked in the refrigerator and there was no ketchup. I would jump in the car, probably run to 7-Eleven because that’s the closest gas station store to my house, and grab a couple of packages of ketchup… I eat my macaroni and cheese with ketchup.”
While eating eggs and even macaroni and cheese with ketchup isn’t entirely uncommon in the United States, it sounds like the Hawaiian native enjoys the condiment more than the food he’s spreading it on.
Brad Tavares looks to get back into the win column in 2026
Tavares has fallen short in three of his last four and will look to get back into the win column in March when he meets Eryk Anders at a Fight Night event in Las Vegas. Overall, Tavares is 16-11 under the UFC banner with 14 of his wins coming via decision.
He most notably scored wins over former middleweight titleholder Chris Weidman and Gerald Meerschaert. In his most recent outing, Tavares suffered a third-round KO loss to Polish knockout artist Robert Bryczek at UFC Paris.
