Your natural instinct when people are throwing punches at you is to back up. That just makes it more dangerous for you. You'll get hurt that way. You've got to teach yourself to go forward, move your feet and move your head. I'm not going to lie, that was tough for me to learn.

A long time ago I learned how to shut my mouth, listen to my coaches and put trust in my coaches.

I'm making MMA great again for pro wrestlers.
