Early years

Căliniuc was born and raised near the IOR Park in Titan, Bucharest. He practiced judo from 4 to 15 years old. He then started kickboxing at the age of 17, but not at a professional level. Căliniuc worked simultaneously as a casino security guard until he met stand-up fighting coach and promoter Aurelian Tănăsescu who enrolled him to a gym. He said his model is Daniel Ghiță.[9][10]
