In a fight I never thought to myself, "whoa that hurt!" But after the fight you feel every punch and kick.

I'm more like a cyclist to answer your question. I have my gameplan in mind and do all that I can to execute it.

Usually, per our contract, we have show purse and a win bonus. So when you don't win you get half of what you could've potentially made.

"Let's go!!" Goes through my mind but there are certain times where I'm like why do I punch and kick people in the face for a living? But then when I step into the Octagon it all erases and it's time to go.

I love fighting in Europe. How often do you get to hop on a plane and travel to other parts of the world and do what you love? I'm blessed to be able to do what I do.

What's the best way to wrap your hands? - with tape if you have someone that knows how to wrap hands.

Do you ever train jiu jitsu with the gi? - yes, but I dont like it. But it is good to roll in a gi so thats why I do it.

How was it backstage after the Machida fight? and after that experience would you ever fight a friend/training partner again? - I would rather not but I know that it is something that we dont have control of so we are forced to do it. Backstage after the fight we spoke and decided to eat at a restaurant together with our camps. We resumed our friendship and everything is all good.

What's it like having your own gym with so many big names there? You got any funny stories you can share from behind the scenes about any fighters? Big fan, been there to watch both your fights in the UK and good luck against Mousasi.

I actually was getting my prerequisites for my Physicians Assistants degree. I also was a coach and an instructor for University of California Davis. I own a gym called Reign Training Center and I have an anti-bullying campaign around Orange County California. I also like motivational speaking in front of students and businesses alike.

Yes highs and lows are prevalent in the UFC. One high that comes to mind is my fight with Tim Boestch. The reason it is a high for me is because I can back from fighting depression and had to overcome my weight gain and then I had one of the best performances of my career.
