Biography
TRAINING: I have been in training a long time for this fight, as I returned from my fight with Francis Carmont and had to sort out a few minor health issues and then I was back in the gym. I have had some great sparring - a typical day basically covers conditioning work, sparring and working on the technical side of my game - I have had sparring partners who have tried to impersonate Leben - I feel fit and ready
Thoughts on opponent, Chris Leben? I am so excited by this fight - I cannot wait to share the cage with a fighter like Leben, someone who comes to fight and has a lot of respect in the MMA world. I have the utmost respect for what he has achieved in the UFC and how he fights. I want to repay Joe Silva's faith in giving me such a fight by making it an exciting fight for the fans and also putting myself in the frame in the middleweight division.

I hope to prove I am good enough for the UFC and to eventually become one of their main fighters. I am very grateful for the opportunity.
