A warrior has to be an artist and a musician and a poet and you know all these other things as well

because if you're not then you can be entirely consumed with one thing.

And the upper hoarding!

I was in an industry which was all consuming.

The focus was to basically make myself better

so I could be outwardly destructive.

My job was basically to take other people apart. I'm skilled and I'm trained in

breaking human. Now that although it's kind of cool and it appeals to my 20 year old

ego it's not a good contribution to the planet.

It's almost like you've been training your whole life to be this

super analyst. I see things that maybe other people don't. If I can communicate that then that's going to help knowledge of the sport grow, that the awareness of the sport grow.

The whole bravado of no one can beat me. I never really had that and I like that talk again

we're going back to Connor McGregor so it suits him. It just didn't work for me

either. I'm far more honest with myself and with everybody else. I was watching back my fight

with Condit. I threw the same punch three times in a row. It was absolutely stupid.

It was a schoolboy error. I remember running down the river Trent

pulling my coach on his BMX,

hitting bags with no gloves until my knuckles bled.

We didn't really know what we were doing.

That was like so counterproductive.

And now I think the physical foundation of the sport

is much more equipped to prepare somebody
