“I always say the mental battle is the hardest for me. I can work hard all day. I’m not a slacker. I’ve never missed a wrestling class. The problem with me is that if I mess up, I begin doubting myself and hesitate. If I get a short-notice fight, the less time I have to think about all that stuff. If I just train to train, and train to get better, I’m not worried about what someone else is going to do to me.”
“(It) feels amazing. I hate losing, so this is great. It’s great to get two finishes in a row, as well. I feel reborn. I feel like a different fighter going in there ready to kill instead of worrying about losing or if my reputation is going to get worse. I put all of that behind me and just focus on being the killer that I know I can be.”
“I’m technically always in fight camp, so getting a fight on 10 days’ notice doesn’t matter. I’ll be prepared. Now, it’s more about what I do well instead of what they are bringing to the table. I listen to my coaches, do what I’m told and go in there and get the job done.”
