Travis Browne: “I’m that guy who works his ass off”

“I’m that guy who works his ass off, who shows the guys sitting on the couch that he should go do what he loves. I’m an average person, I just decided to work hard and dedicate myself to something. That’s the only thing that separates people like me from people sitting on the couch. I was on the couch watching Tim Sylvia beat Ricco Rodriguez, Randy Couture beat Tim Sylvia, and Josh Barnett fight in PRIDE. I was one of these guys on the couch who said I could do it without actually doing a f—ing thing about it. My choice was to become great, to become better than average.”

With his sole loss behind him and after rattling off two-straight wins, Travis Browne is just one fight away from a shot at the UFC gold currently held by Cain Velasquez.

How’d he do it? Browne says hard work.
