Personal Quotes

After TUF 3 , he stated in an interview:
“I consider myself a laidback, personable, type of guy. A lot of us out here in the Midwest have that type of personality. The whole experience was totally new to me. I never had to live under the same roof with a group of guys who might end up being my opponent the next day. If I came off as being depicted differently it was just because I was in a different situation and surrounding than what I’m used to.”
