(Condit) is a very good striker and caught me with one good elbow. I just tried to get him on the ground and pound on him. |
I got him to the mat and kept dropping elbows on him. I kept hammering away at him, and he never really had a chance to gain control of the fight. |
I've only seen two of his fights, and it was hard to get a feel for him because he had his man on the ground most of the time. I'm going to have to feel him out early on and see what he's got. |
It goes to show that anything can happen in this sport. You just have to be ready for anything. |
The sport was recently legalized in California, so I'm talking to some people about possibly fighting closer to home soon. We'll have to see what happens though. People in Hawaii are very excited about martial arts, and I think the sports is just starting to take off. |
There's no politics involved. It's about as fair a way you can have to determine a champion. |
They look for the best fighters from around the world, and to just be picked is a big deal. To win it is even better. Everyone here presents a challenge. |
