“I like the opponent, Houston Alexander. He’s powerful and strong. That’s one of the guys that I’ve always wanted to fight, and now I have an opportunity to do so.”

“It’s been a hell of a training camp for me. I’ve been training different aspects of my game. I’m not afraid to stand up. I’m not afraid to get in the clinch or go to the ground. I’ll be prepared. I’ll be ready for whatever comes up.”
