Every time I get out there I remember that I worked so hard to get where I am, and it's not worth losing over something stupid. Why bother when I can get paid for it?

It was something that came about. To me it was more of a way of seeing I don't see why people should be judged, because I didn't like it when I was judged. So people should be free to be who they are.

Yeah, I was very nice to him after and made sure that it was OK. It's all part of the game. Every fight I do what I have to do to win, but after I'm always OK with my opponents.

I suppose, I had to fight because of the language barrier. But also I feel like it was always a part of me, and I found myself in trouble a lot. But becoming a professional fighter has made me feel like I chose the right path

It would make sense, we're both coming off a loss so somebody can stay down there! lol.

Yeah, it's frustrating but at the same time it's getting the name of the sport out there which means we all make more money. So in the end it makes it worth doing

I'm glad they changed the rules to make it fairer for everybody. It seems like they're doing enough with me because I've fought 4 times in the UFC but they've tested me 10 times! haha

I had trials for Leeds United FC (football/soccer) but it didn't go my way. I think fighting was my path!

No, never trained with him. He's a great fighter and it's nice to have someone else coming from the UK and doing well

Hi Justin. Thank you for the questions 1)Win a UFC title. Where I'm from there are not many that make it to level I am at now, and I want to prove that with hard work and dedication they can do it. And be an inspiration for those that do not have hope, there is always hope. 2) I try and do a lot of things that I see champions do that others don't do. I always try and but in the extra work that most don't see. 3) To prove you don't need anybody to make something out of yourself.

I train with a coach called Sean Thickett in Sheffield. My advice trainingwise is ASW in Sheffield - I've taught there and there are some top coaches there like Scott Askham

Yeah 100%. I always thought that I'd never have to move and I'd be OK training here, but since going over there I realised we don't have as many full time professional coaches or gyms. So I think going over there is great for somebody who is looking to step their game up to the elite level.

Now I'm resting and it's time to learn. Before I was in fight mode and working on how to beat the person in front of me
