Why I Will Be The Ultimate Fighter:

I will be the Ultimate Fighter because I have grit and my “Why” is bigger than anyone else’s here and that is why I will be the Ultimate Fighter. My “Why” is my family and my wife, I have a lot of people counting on me back home and I plan on making them proud.

What Team I Want To Be On:

I think either way I’m in good hands, Chael Sonnen is like a master marketer and he’s been there and coached – they both coached the Ultimate Fighter before. Then, DC has been a world champion, so I think either way I am going to be in good hands.

Biggest Inspriation:

My biggest inspiration as far as UFC fighters go, I would have to say is Georges St-Pierre, I just think he’s super well rounded and a legend in the sport.

What Is Your Dream Matchup:

I’d have to say Kamaru Usman, only because I have seen him in person and watched him fight a ton and since he’s in my weight class – I would say Kamaru Usman.

How would you describe your fighting style:

My fighting style is aggressive, in your face, putting the pressure on you whether its striking or grappling. I plan to show that while being on the show.
