feeling blessed now I shout all the doublers that said that I couldn’t finish a fight I I don’t need to say anything anymore it’s been a few minutes since your fight how did you feel about your performance I did was a good performance uh I knew that Michelle was going to come very strong in the beginning I knew her they was going to try to knock me out because see this guy was KO guys from like halfway Division and he was top 15 there and then he got down got two first round Knockouts I knew that he was trying to kill me you know the I just I just knew in all this strategy with my team is to pass this first storm and after that I’m gonna start to pick him up then I started to pick him up with my kicks my elbows and then eventually they take down the best double leg in the UFC so you guys see uh you did get your first finish in the UFC how did that feel that feel great man that feel really really great because I know I’m a finisher my 13 Wings before this fight seven was by finishing guys so I know I have this inside of me you know and I know that naturally I’m the natural I know that naturally this was this will come along you know I just needed to work a little bit more I did more one-on-one with my coaches and then to start fixing all the holes that I had inside my top game inside the the positions that I was losing and then you guys saw what I did that’s it how frustrating was it to hear the fans or even analysts you know say that you you weren’t a finisher that you were boring that you just they just hold people down how frustrating was that to hear so actually I I wouldn’t say frustrating because I was getting my money I was getting my Wii money and this guy was just talking you know I got into contracts I got contact withstake.com I got control with hola head I get to Contour with block acid and all these guys know that I doing my job right so you can you guys can say whatever you want I’m making money I’m going to the top now I’m going to the top 15 I’m going to crack my way there and I’m showing my work I’m here to show my work it’s not frustrating of course with myself I knew that I had inside of me I finish a guy I know I’m a finisher guy so I just needed to keep the composure and I know that naturally is going to come along you know and that’s why you guys saw and I’m very happy with that very satisfied for sure and and I want my bonus please I want my bonus I think only me and Rodolfo and the last fight we’re just the only one who finished this entire card so that would be good a good bonus right now because my son is

during me today you said that with a win you won a top 15 opponent do you think this win this finish earns you a top 15 opponent I’m sure I’m sure cuz talk about the Midway days for fight win streak against tough guys listen the first guy dagestani undefeated 13-0 I dominated him second guy under uh petrozian kickboxing world champion is coming from six Knockouts in his last seven seven fights kicking out a lot of guys I dominated him third fight Mark mode muradov 14 wins in his last 15 fights a killer was koing everybody in the division I dominated him and now my colleagues he took he was top 15 in the live heavyweight division he was killing all the guys up there then he got down two first round knockout and I dominated him why you guys want me to do I’m getting the hard way here I’m getting the hardware here and I’m ready for that and I’m showing that I’m capable of that’s what that’s what I’m showing right now so I know that right now I can have a top 15 opponents for sure the divisions kind of booked up a little bit but does a fight with Andre Muniz kind of interest you not at all because he’s Brazilian you know like I’m not here going to call out Brazilians because it’s all love you know of course if the UFC wants I’m not gonna say no but like I called out there Brunson I heard that he’s he doesn’t have a fight I call him out before my last fight with Mahmoud and he was saying okay go win two more fights and then we can dance so right now I think the music is on so it’s time to dance Bronson in a perfect world when would you like to return oh I interviewed a little bit my hand my time this guy had a hard head so uh maybe I’m gonna be two or three weeks without training and stuff so maybe get back on July August I think August is the perfect time because my son is born in September so I want to do one more fight before my son’s birth my son’s birth and then after that I can enjoy all this and that and maybe come back again in December January you know so I’m very I’m pretty active in this Division I think this is my 6’5 in one and a half year so I think I’m pretty active I’m showing that I’m here to work and I’m sure the FC I’m here to her so let’s go congratulations that’s a bonus my brother I told you guys I told you bonus of my pocket Liam is coming brother bills which which is more which is more nerve-wracking uh expecting a child or or getting into a cage fight what’s what sorry bro which which one is more nerve-wracking having a kid or getting into a cage fight I already know the answer I’m going I’m I think in having a kid I’m gonna tell you because because like that’s the right I was talking to my coaches there every time right now that I’m going to step in the Octagon I’m more like no I’m not nervous anymore I don’t have adrenaline on me I you know before it was like what the is happening to me I don’t have adrenia anymore what is this but like I know the them ready that’s why I don’t have adrenaline because I trust on my skills I trust in God I have faith and I know everything will come along the way that I train it so that’s why I don’t have adrenaline anymore and I think I would have more adrenaline when my son is born thank you sir thank you so much guys God bless you all see you next time right all ahead let’s go foreign foreign foreign great performance in the main event what kind of statement do you think you made tonight my performance is okay not very good I can in the fight early in the rounds and well you know five rounds is a very tough opponent and want to be patient in the fight and uh yeah I have a lot of chance to uh finish the fight in the early early yeah when do you think you could have got the finish earlier uh I’ve been I’ve been uh practicing my niece you know I wanted him to hear him uh fly me you know but but uh yeah yeah I hesitate I had it too much yeah do you think if the fourth round had gone an extra even 20 seconds you could have got him out of there in the fourth do you think he was safe by the Bell a little bit there of course uh in in of the first round the line him a live hook but it’s time and uh the uh the February started I think I saw that I can let him too you know so I’ve been waiting the chance and and I got him did your coaches say anything in between the fourth and the fifth to keep that momentum going to to get the stoppage in the fifth round so Aaron’s my curse told me uh gave him pressure you know so I can I can say what uh I can say all he was doing you know he’s he’s he’s too slow sorry for him yeah actually he’s too slow I’m too fast for him and you were ranked eight in the bantamweight division before tonight is there anyone above you in the rankings you want to fight next to keep climbing up the division so it took uh I want to fight uh top five fathers so uh even uh funked he’s six right okay he’s okay yeah and uh Vera and xiaom Ali but probably they don’t give me the show money you know he has to protect him and yeah whatever just top five my goal is uh fighter top five Fighters uh this year yeah in an Ideal World when would you want to return to the octagon uh I think around August or July yeah it depends on how how my body feels awesome congrats on the win thank you thank you hey song um he tried to use his wrestling uh obviously he didn’t take you down um was that a big thing you practice in this
