00:00Now, you're coming into Lights Out Extreme Fighting

00:02for your first fight.

00:03You're fighting Alex, the Lemon Killer, Arteaga.

00:06What brought you to Lights Out Extreme Fighting?

00:08You know, what do you think that this can do for you

00:11as you try to continue your path upward in the sport?

00:14And what do you think of your opponent

00:15that you're getting ready to face in February?

00:18I think Lights Out is gonna give me the platform

00:21to be seen by the UFC,

00:23seen by people that I want to see me fight

00:26and, you know, knock some people out.

00:28So, as far as my opponent, you know,

00:32I don't really see anything that really, like,

00:36puts fear in me or any, like, doubt in my mind

00:40that I'm gonna go in there and knock him out

00:42or even submit him.

00:43You know, I know his thing is, like, jiu-jitsu and grappling

00:47and whatever it is that he likes to do.

00:49And I'm just so confident for this fight,

00:52just like every fight I go into.

00:55And I just see him as another stepping stone, you know,

00:58a pawn to get to where I'm trying to get.

01:01I don't think he's gonna have a hard time

01:03getting in the UFC with a 5-4 record.

01:06It'll probably take him, like, another 15, 10 fights

01:10that he would have to win in a row.

01:12And I'm 4-0, you know, so I think that

01:15this is just a good place for me to go where I need to go.

01:18And, you know, respecting him for taking the fight

01:21is not a lot of people want to fight me,

01:23so that's good on his part,

01:25but he's gonna get really, really hurt in this fight, so...

01:29Hmm.

01:31He has lost three of his last four,

01:32including his Lights Out debut in his last fight,

01:34so we will see what he can do against you.

01:36One of the weirdest names, nicknames I've heard in fighting,

01:40you know, people have some strange nicknames at times,

01:42but the Lemon Killer, what do you even make of that?

01:45What is that about?

01:47I don't even know what that means,

01:49but I'm gonna squeeze him like a f***ing lemon

01:51on the day we fight.

01:53You know, he's gonna pop.

01:54Bah!

01:56Well, we look forward to your fight on February 7th.

01:59Thanks so much for joining us.

02:00Good luck in your debut.

02:02We look forward to seeing what you do

02:03with Lights Out Extreme Fighting in the future

02:05and how your career path hopefully keeps to ascend.

02:08And hopefully you can continue doing the great things

02:10that you have done so far early in your career.
