You sleep on a win and you'll wake up with a loss.

I eat, sleep and breathe training.
dream sleep mma
I keep having vivid dreams of success. Then it's time to sleep.
morning sleep wrestling
Sometimes I train in the middle of the night, all on my own. Can't sleep, don't want to sleep, get up, go to the gym, work. This is early for me, being here at half ten in the morning, this is really early, and I'm only here because I screwed up yesterday and kept you hanging around. Other times I'll call up my wrestling coach, or my jiu jitsu coach, or my deep-tissue guy, and want to really focus on one part of what I do. I train in all these different disciplines.

People say that I'm a boxer. I actually started with kick boxing, and then I moved onto boxing, and then I moved onto grappling.

We come bulletproof in Ireland. We're reared tough, and we fight.

I don't feel pressure in a negative way. I like pressure. I feel excitement and calm at the same time. No pressure, no diamonds. I want pressure: pressure creates drama, creates emotion.
beating crap good job loads paid
I have the greatest job in the world. I get paid loads of cash for beating the crap out of people. And I'm very good at it.
