What Team I Want To Be On:
I would personally like to be on DC’s team, but I understand. Both of them are great fighters, both are great coaches so regardless of what happens I’ll be really happy with either team.
Biggest inspiration:
Two fighters that are inspirations to me are very different from each other. It is Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov. Conor, for everything he has done for the sport and the growth for the sport I think is very important. I really admire that. For Khabib, he has the discipline, the work ethic, and everything else. I understand they are completely different people and different fighters, but those are the fighters that are inspirations to me. Conor and Khabib.
What Is Your Dream Matchup:
There are many fighters that I think I would love to fight, but I think Charles Oliveira, Justin Gaethje, those are two. Those are fighters that I have grown up watching, so many fighters out there, but to be able to fight Charles Oliveira or Justin Gaethje. Those two because of my style of fighting I think would be amazing if I were able to fight them.
How would you describe your fighting style:
My fighting style is really complete. I train a lot of boxing, jujitsu and wrestling as well. I feel that I have improving a lot. Not only training in my gym, but in the UFCPI so I am becoming a more all-around athlete.
