Q - What made you want to train MMA?
A - I've been watching MMA since the days of the first UFCs. It always interested me. Throughout the years I became a serious traditional martial arts student, and then moved into San Da. As MMA has become more mainstream, local shows started up, and I got tired of sitting there thinking "I could knock
that guy out." and figured I better find out if I could.
Q - What do you think makes you stand out as a fighter?
A - I've got some pretty steady nerves. It takes a lot to shake me, and the more "intense" the moment, the clearer and sharper I am. I think that allows me to have some excellent timing, and as someone who likes to stand and strike, timing is everything! As far as skills, well... I've got some pretty heavy hands and my style is unlike anything most guys from an MMA background will have seen before.
Q - How far do you want to go in the sport?
A - To be completely honest, I don't think that far ahead yet. I'm focused on whoever I'm fighting next. I'll go as far as my will and body can take me, and I'll be extremely pleased with that.
Q - Who or what do you get your inspiration from?
A - I love MMA and sport combat. I love everything about it. It hurts, it's brutally honest, it requires sacrifice, and it's so worth it. I can't think of a better character builder for myself.
Q - If you could fight someone famous, who would it be?
A - George W. Bush. I can't think of someone more deserving of some solid ground and pound.
