Ray J<\/a>, as you know, was recently on death’s door with a bunch of serious health issues \u2014 but now the R&B singer is back and stronger than ever, training his ass off for his upcoming MMA fight against Supah Hot Fire.<\/p>\n

TMZ obtained exclusive video of Ray getting into tip-top shape with his posse, which includes a couple of hot female influencers shaking their booties as Ray is pumping iron.<\/p>\n

As you can see … Ray is taking this Saturday’s match up very seriously as he spars with a partner and practices various takedown maneuvers and even shows how he plans to choke out Supah Hot during their fight.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

And Ray’s training digs are pretty cool, too. He has a couple good friends to thank for the exercise space. They are his longtime manager, David Weintraub<\/a>, and Andy Bachman, owner of the Creators Inc. house, where Ray is getting into shape this week.<\/p>\n

As for Ray’s health … Weintraub says Ray is taking his health and fitness very seriously, which is the reason why he was finally ready to accept a celebrity MMA fight.<\/p>\n

Ray and Supa Hot are just one piece of the co-main event, which also features Johnny Manziel<\/a> versus Bob Menery. And get this, the entire MMA event is being promoted by streamer Adin Ross<\/a> and UFC honcho Dana White<\/a>.<\/p>\n
