A true champion and athlete is never satisfied with their performance. You can always do more and always improve.

You're speechless sometimes when you think of the support you've had from the first day I've started wrestling to now.

I am in the Chicago Carpenters Union. They are huge supporters of mine and of MMA.

I consider myself a very driven and intense fighter.

They say people from small towns have big dreams and that pretty much describes me. I had big dreams growing up and I'm still a dreamer.

Trust me, I've seen a lot of fighters come in hot and they disappear faster than they came in after a loss or two. This is the UFC and the best fighters in the world are here. If you fight the great fighters you're bound to lose.
