Q&A
What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC?
"When I decided that I wanted to do an MMA fight, I spent four months training. It was an amateur fight. My buddy, Josh, and I were training in a shed that was designed for lawnmower equipment in the back yard. It was a little 12'x15' shed with no air-conditioning in the summer and no heat in the winter, just a little space heater. We just trained and trained and trained. Over the years, our training has gotten better and we've taken ourselves from those beginnings to the top of the food chain in this sport. At the time, we were watching the UFC and we'd say to ourselves that one day one of us would fight in the UFC. Now I am fighting in the UFC. I'm actually accomplishing what I set out to do."
Where did you go to college and what degree did you earn?
University of Cincinnati - Bachelors Degree in Mathematics and Masters Degree in Education.
What is your biggest weapon in a fight?
My intelligence. I'm a patient fighter and I keep my wits about me. I wait for the right moment to do things. I find myself in good situations all the time in my fights. Sometimes I find myself in situations where I'm like 'How did I pull that off?'"
