ALLENAMENTO: Sollevo pesi ogni mattina e quindi faccio un allenamento inteso alla sera.

Cosa pensi dell'avversario Josh Koscheck? Complessivamente è molto diverso da (l'avversario previsto) Diego (Sanchez), ma in alcune cose è come lui. Di sicuro per due mesi mi sono allenato per un mancino e Josh é un fighter convenzionale. Mi sono anche allenato per qualcuno senza credenzialità nella lotta libera e ora affronto qualcuno con ha migliori credenziali nella lotta rispetto a me. Ma devo dire che mi piace che manchino due settimane e mezzo e ha accettato l'incontro ora mentre io mi sto allenando da tre mesi. I miei allenatori stanno guardando tante cassette ora e stanno preparando una strategia. Ad ogni modo sarà un match onesto perché ha avuto tanto tempo quanto ne ho avuto io per prepararmi a lui.

Quando e perché hai iniziato ad allenarti per combattere? Avevo visto l'UFC ma non avevo mai pensato di gareggiarci. Un amico mi ha inserito e ho iniziato a fare alcuni piccoli eventi che mi hanno portato qui. Non avrei mai pensato di entrarci ma sembra che ci sia atleticamente riuscito piuttosto bene.

Che riconoscimenti e titoli hai detenuto?
Due volte UFC World Welterweight Champion. Due volte state champion  all'Hillsboro High School, High School All-American e quattro volte collegiate All American al Lincoln Community College e all'Eastern Illinois University. Middleweight Advanced Champion ai campionati 2002 Grapplers Quest West (2/23/02). Allenatore al the Ultimate Fighter, stagione due e sei.

Hai qualche eroe?
Pat Miletich e Dan Gable.

Tecnica preferita?
Ogni tipo di grappling.

Cosa significa per te combattere in UFC?
Ho 34 anni e ancora amo competere. Ogni volta che entro nell'Ottagono mi diverto e passerà più di un anno prima che esca da questo sport. Amo competere.

Sei andato al college e che risultati hai conseguito?
Associate of Arts Degree al Lincoln Community College.

Quale era il tuo lavoro prima di iniziare a combattere? Ero un elettricista e mi sono dedicato alle costruzioni e all'agraria.
