Greatness in the mat is achieved through training that make you push to survive.

But we've got to work. We can't just live on reputations at all - by any means.

There is no mat space for malcontents or dissenters.

I went to college. I had a double major in biology and physical education, but my major was wrestling.

My advice to young wrestlers is that your surroundings really make a difference. You want to put yourself in good, positive surroundings.

Right out of high school I never had the fear of getting beat, which is how most people lose.

If you're afraid to fail, you'll never succeed.
