00:00
You guys are cutting weight and sometimes that can have adverse effects on the body
00:06
or sometimes you cut that weight, dehydrate yourself and then you try to eat afterwards
00:11
and rehydrate and that can come back on you too.
00:13
You never know on the road.
00:14
Food poisoning, a million different ways, but you feel like a lot of that was brought
00:17
about.
00:18
You think he was fine and then it was the body shots that really did him in and caused
00:21
him to have that reaction.
00:23
Yeah, that is correct.
00:27
Like I said, I was trying to milk the fight.
00:29
I wanted it to go a little bit longer, but at one of the points in the clinch, I did
00:33
hit him.
00:34
It wasn't a hard shot, but I think it was just in the right spot.
00:36
He made a really weird noise and you could tell he just went into survival mode.
00:40
He started throwing those weird jabs that weren't even flush.
00:43
They weren't even straight on his end and I think that was his way of showing fear that
00:49
he was hurt and I want to say that I had to play a big part of that.
00:54
You certainly did a good job there.
00:55
You proved how tough you are right away.
00:57
Like I said, not the way you want to do it because you want to show the best of you.
01:00
You want to show all your skills, especially if you go a little longer, you get to show
01:04
that you can continue to do that, but a win is a win and now you are 2-0 in the BKFC.
01:10
You're fighting in front of your home crowd there.
01:12
What was it like?
01:13
What was the atmosphere?
01:14
Was everything going on?
01:15
Obviously, there's always a lot of local fighters on many of these cards, but especially Denver,
01:19
where there is such a big fan base and a big camp base for a lot of fighters trying to
01:24
get out there in the elevation.
01:25
You have a guy like Camozzi who's local fighting for a title on the top of that card, I'm sure
01:29
brought people as well.
01:30
What was it like?
01:31
What was the crowd atmosphere for you and how did it help you and motivate you as you
01:34
were getting into the squared circle?
01:38
It was great.
01:39
It was honestly a dream come true ever since I was little.
01:43
I've been boxing for my whole life, so I've always dreamed of fighting in big venues.
01:46
I never thought I would do it in this new combat sport, but I think I fell in love with
01:52
this new sport and to be able to fight in a big, well-known venue, not too far from
01:57
where I used to live growing up, man, it was great.
01:59
I had so many people there.
02:01
When I walked out, I had a badass little entrance.
02:04
The crowd was going crazy.
02:06
It was an amazing feeling.
02:08
I felt like I didn't win the fight the way I should have, but I felt like I won the crowd
02:13
with that one.
