odd guy. I'm liking him less as this rumbles on. mad how he was married to Danielle just a few months ago. now that's all finished, he has a new girlfriend, who he says is the only thing he cares about. and no coaches.

not judging his personal life per se, he can do what he wants. just from the perspective of having a stable mindset, getting the right training and advice, that everyone needs..

he's fucked. he's gone all-in on himself instinctively knowing what to do. I get that you need self-belief, but why back an untrained version of yourself, over a well-coached version of yourself?

that's stupid

He seems like a self destructive idiot.odds are he ends his career without a pot to piss in and floats around the regional scene for way too long like phil baroni

He could win

I had no idea about this until I saw the fight. This dude cracks me up. I can't remember if it was bisping or Cruz talking about "she just told him to punch him in the face" they were about to laugh about it then Perry smacked him in the face and dropped him. It was great.
