Being in good shape is my lifestyle, and I can't remember a time when I was out of shape. I try to live an active lifestyle and mix up all types of activities like fighting, running and swimming.
The key thing is confidence, and you get that from the actions that you take. It can be anything from getting chicks, being in a fight, having success at work, having a good family. A lot of that stuff comes from having confidence, so that's one of the biggest things.
As far as fighting, I just love to fight and enjoy my life more because of that. I think that it is pretty apparent to those who know me that I do this because of the love. I am not looking to get famous or acquire a bunch of cash. I am following my passion and that's what is about for me.
The fight world is definitely a masculine thing, but I think it's pretty masculine if someone can avoid a fight also.
A lot of fights in my life have been avoided through confidence and demeanor, so that's pretty masculine also.
I just happen to love fighting and happen to be great at it. And I let my lifestyle carry over into my chosen profession.
You just learn one thing for the day, that can change a fight.
