Hi Dean...I believe we spoke on the phone earlier but to answer your question, it really depends on you. If you have several years of training under you already and are at a high level, then it's not too late. If you have never trained before and are just starting at 28, it'd be extremely difficult to get to get to the UFC level in that small window of time. Again, it's all depends on you...your athleticism, how fast you learn, your dedication, etc. We can provide the tools, the facility and the coaching but the hard work is on you.
There have been 11 UFC fighters that have come out of our gym at Gracie Tampa North under my coach Ro Kahn. You can also Google Rob Kahn and read about who he is and what he has done and accomplished. You would definitely be learning from the best and and training with the best partners. Out of those 11 fighters that have come out of Gracie Tampa North, 5 of them have become UFC champions. So yes I fully believe you could get into the UFC. I don't think you are too old at all. In fact, I don't think you've even hit your prime yet. You should definitely come check us out and start training at Gracie Tampa North. Hope to see you there soon.
