Real ability is the child of God-given talent and rock solid diligence. Nobody maintains ability without hard work. Nobody.

I believe martial arts is always evolving and mixed martials arts is the top of the food chain.

Everything that I do, I have to do at my best. No one is perfect, but you can come close.

I'm a traditional martial artist and I'm always going to carry myself in the most respectful way I can.

The coaches don't have to worry about me not training. The coach is usually there to make sure I'm not over trained.

My advice to the college kids would be make sure you get your degree and then go after the dream.
