“The thing about me is I always try to keep it real,nobody can honestly say I’m shady or that I screwed them over in a business deal. I know that there are a lot of shady people in the fight world. Common sense should prevail when people think about who’s doing shady business. I can look myself in the mirror everyday day proud that I’ve been righteous. No matter what happens in my career,no matter what the judge says tomorrow,the powers that be should know one important fact about me.. IM NOT JUST A FIGHTER haha I have other ways to make a living, the most high God of heaven and earth and the creator of all living things gave me many skills. I can walk away from MMA right now and only fight 4 fun. I love this sport but not SOME of the evil people behind it.”
